Movie Reviews
Could've been better

"There are some good fight scenes and a good story in this one along with widescreen and 5.1,but it shoots itself in the foot with that way over the top asian film humor,dont get me wrong I like alot of the comedy/Kung Fu films just not this one becouse they go to far not taking the film itself serious.If you want some funny Fu get "drunken master"the new or old one there both great or Snake in the eagles shadow.I cannot recommend Shaolin Drunkard."
WARNING-this version of this movie has non removable chinese

"With that being said, the subtitles are black outlined, so why they took the effort to put them on, I don't know. You can only watch the movie in english, but the subs don't come. There isn's a ton of hand to hand type stuff in this, so the subs aren't that distracting, but the fact they are there pisses me off. If they advertised this as an english version with good chinese subtitles, hen I guess someone who knows cantonese characters will enjoy this, other than that, they serve no purpose. So you have been warned of the subs.
Now onto the movie--really good, but taoism drunkard is better. This movie has very good performances my everybody, decent sroryline, and really weird monster stunts. If you like funny movies and UNIQUE experiences in general, this movie is for you."
Excellent material all around!

"I was very pleased with the content of this DVD both on screen and the extra feature materials.The transfer quality is superb for both sound(5.1) and film(widescreen).The movie itself is an earlier work of Yuen Woo Ping,and it holds up nicely.The extras are plentiful-previews(18 of them),cast and crew bios with alot of bonus clips for each actor(too many to count),and alot of Wu Tang Clan extras-live performances,interviews,etc.Also a couple of behind the scenes featurettes.Overall a very good buy. I would also suggest the following-Fearless Master,Snake Shadow Lama Fist,Kung Fu of the 8 Drunkards and Incredible Kung Fu Master,which are all under the Wu Tang Clan series."
Great film!

"This is an early example of director Yuen Woo Ping's work. The video quality is superb(widescreen),although I would recommend getting the DVD for an additional 5 dollars.It is LOADED with extra features that the VHS doesn't have."
Definitely the craziest kung fu action ive ever seen!!!!!
