Destroyer Wod Honestly i can't believe the reviews before me... This movie ain't bad at all, its a very nice martial art movie. Sure its not Ip Man but c'mon...Of course if you get this for Sammo Hung only, sure you will be disappointed he is not much into it... I originally got it cause his name and face is on the cover, but even tough i was surprise to see he was not that much in it, i tough it was very fun and nice. Sure the romance may be a bit sloppy as some pointed, but if you base your view of the movie on just that, you miss something.Once i realize Ken Kosugi was in, i knew it would be fun, the guy showed some stuff before, and overall i was very entertain by the fighting sequence and overall story.I watched the movie in Cantonese, as i can't stand English dub, i am from Quebec, so speak french, i watch movies in french dubbed normally, and i grew up doing so, so they look perfectly normal to me, but an English dub just feel off to me... an original English version is all fine, but if the movie is in Cantonese, i rather watch it in Cantonese. I would not be surprise to see some people had trouble getting into the movie because they watched it in English.Anyway, i got this by surprise in a video club bin for 5$ and i was surprise to see how good it is, definitely liked it. Actually its been a while i didn't enjoyed a good martial art movie that much...

Sassy Cat The first thing I want to point out is that, trust me, Sammy Hung can act. It's just not terribly evident in this movie. Watch the Wing Chun TV series (it's on Crunchyroll) and you will see the incredible range and talent that Sammy has. It doesn't fully show up until halfway into the series, but believe me, he's outstanding.Unfortunately in "Fight the Fight" he gets a character that doesn't have a ton of personality or much to do, really. As for the movie, how do you have Sammo Hung and Yuen Wah in a movie as kung fu Masters and not have them fighting more or doing much training? They have one scene where the two of them fight briefly, but otherwise they are just "there" like window dressing. The story is pretty thin and not terribly well written.The movie is supposed to be about Choy Li Fut but you don't actually see much of it displayed. Sammy and Kane Kosugi are at this school supposedly training, but you don't see a ton of actual training going on. Some of the tournament fighting is tasty, Kane Kosugi has the best moves, but there are times when a guy here or there, Sammy included, gets clobbered and has his arms at his sides - absolutely no defense. I'm no martial arts expert, but that can't be right. The nicest moment in the whole movie for me personally is when Sammo, who plays Sammy's Dad, is kinda wishing him luck as he's going into his big fight and there's this very genuine moment where you know it's Sammo's way of kind of saying publicly how proud he is of his son. It's very brief, but very touching, real life father and son moment.

m-wong2 Normally I love a Sammo Hung's movie, but in this one he did not make much of an appearance. They tried to blend traditional martial art movie with Western style, and it failed miserably! There were a lot of stuff in there, which were totally unnecessary as well as boring. In fact, it felt somewhat disjointed. There was very little about the "Choy Lee Fut" martial arts itself. That would have made an interesting movie. The martial arts choreography is appalling! SPOILER ALERT! In some cases the characters took turn to be hit. Also the final fight was surprisingly uneventful,and I could not believe that the bad guy just fainted. I did not think he was hit that hard! Unless you have time to waste, stay away from this movie!

helmutty Choy Lee Yut is a famous Chinese martial arts but I have not heard of it. Therefore, hearing that this movie is based on Choy Lee Yut, I had to give it a shot. Though the martial arts is famous, the movie is not so. I think this is a direct-to-DVD type of movie, I have not heard it showing in cinemas. Since this is a low-budget movie, do not expect excellent visuals and big fight set pieces in cool places and known movies stars like the IP man movies. Some of only noticeable stars are Sammo Hung and Dennis To although they do not appear often.The story: It is nothing new to the martial arts genre and even the fighting scenes are just okay for a martial arts movie. There is even sappy romance between the main characters. For God's sake. The first third of the 1 hour and 32 minutes movie is okay focusing on the school and the contract of the fight competition for the school but the second third turns into a sappy puppy love story where the main characters are somehow attracted to each other. Martial arts fans will have to wait till the last third to see some real fighting in the competition. But the waiting for the competition is not well paid-off. The moves/choreography brings nothing new to the genre plus all of the horrifying slow-motion shots. And the song played during the last fight scene. What was the music composer thinking? The CGI in a few scenes is like from a cheap video game.Overall: It is nothing new. It is just another generic low-budget martial arts movie trying to please martial arts fans. Watch this if you have the time to spare. If not, you will not be missing a lot of things.
