|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Bone Crushing Kid, The | 1979 | Jackie Chanish style comedy and acrobatic fu. Entertaining, mild humor. 47% of the movie consist of training scenes or fighting. James Tien in final fight shows and proves his skill in a 9 minute battle, Fliptastic Fu! | 35 | 3.8 | SMK |
| Brave in Kung Fu Shadow, The | 1977 | Tien Peng is hired to retrieve Judy Lee's 'Blood Raining Sword'. No comedy, minus a laughable bad wig. Judy exudes emotion when fighting, as well as skill. Easy to follow plot, top action. | 33 | 4.3 | SMK |
| Furious Slaughter | 1972 | A two-armed Jimmy Wang Yu single-handedly takes on dozens of baddies of a crime syndicate in this 1972 film set in the 30's. Comedy = none. Action = 20 minutes worth in this 84 minute film. Fans of JWY must see. | 36 | 3.7 | SMK |
| Ip Man | 2008 | Bone-crunching, fast-paced, Sammo Hung choreographed action. Whose martial arts is best, Japan's or China's? Ip Man proves it. Heartfelt, easy to follow story line. Worthy of repeated viewings, easily. | 29 | 4.5 | SMK |
| Kung Fu Arts | 1978 | 90 minute movie, only 9 minutes of action. The Emperor’s daughter is poisoned, he promises her savior will marry the princess and become a prince. What happens next is bizarre, "should see" not a "must see". | 36 | 3.1 | SMK |
| Master, The | 1980 | Chen Kuan-Tai takes on The 3 Evil Masters in this Shaw Brothers classic. Wang Lung Wei is the main villain using panther style, and hair braided with spear tip. Great fights. A must see for fans. | 36 | 4 | Michael M |
| Shaolin Abbot | 1979 | Bald David Chiang as a monk set out to rebuild Shaolin, Lo Lieh as Pai Mei, gorgeous indoor sets of SB studios a plus. Slow choreography a minus. Slightly above average but still a must see. | 36 | 3.5 | SMK |
