Shao Lin yu Wu Dang
(1983)

One great movie not to be missed!
I brought this movie because it starred Gordon Lui.He is one of the best Old School fighters no second thoughts.I loved this movie from the moment it started to the end.I wish the movie never ended.Like many of Gordon's movies (Master Killers)for one which was a big hit when it came out.. Shaolin Vrs Wu Tang I think is the kept secret behind Master Killers.It does not ask Master Killers for help in kung fu movie ranking.I loved the great show down on the two schools Wu Tang and Shaolin showing their respective fierce fighting styles and traditions.Many great foot,leg,swords,training scenes from the both clans comparing their styles to each other.Without spoiling it here now the movie has a great plot that keeps you thinking and your eyes wide open.Gordon Lui & Adam Cheng are best friends only thing is that both of them come from rival clans the Shaolin and Wu Tang.The evil prince played by (Wong Lung Wie) tries to get the two friends to fight each other til death in a true battle both schools stand aside at the end to watch a battle that means more than friends!.Is friendship thicker than honor?Find out and watch!!!!

Eagle's Claw Has Been Attacked By Chang Yi...Must see!
This movie is one of my favorite classics.The movie starts out with a great intro giving you a good look at the Eagle's Claw technique and it's many styles used.I think it's a plus when a movie gives the viewer a great intro since most of us are strangers to the world of kung fu.Very little fooling around with corny comedy in this movie.So your not in for much of a laugh.I loved Chang Yi's robe and oriental fighting boots giving him an evil and dominant look.Thumbs up for the costume designers in this movie.Lot's of practice and training scenes at the Eagle's Claw school,Mantis Fist, also featured.If you happen to like teacher student movies and fighting trying to accomplish your Kung Fu to get to the top this one is sure to please you!Some movies like Invincible Armor,Hot Cool and the vicious are movies where the fighter or fighters are already at full strength and at there peek in fighting and you pretty much now how good every fighters Kung Fu is already.Here in Eagle's Claw you start at the bottom and work your way up by training and hard work to defeat the evil villain Chang Yi.This movie also gives you a good plot for a Kung Fu movie.Good twists and surprises as the movie ends.A must see!

Big Momma's House
(2000)

Martin keeps you laughing.
When I first heard about this movie I really did not want to give it a chance.Hey all I have to say it's funny!The movie may not start off with a big bang at first but as the movie warms up it gets funny.The movies plot was kind of weak .Badboy's had a better action and comdey blend to it.But hey this is a (Comedy) and when Martin plays in one you will sure get just that (a big laugh).

Movie..Invincible Armor
If it's starring Hwang Jang Lee your in for a great movie!This one is a great.This movie is starts out with action and it has very little time to spare with corny comedy like on some kung fu movies.The movies plot is ok.For such a great movie though I thought they could have wrote the movie with a little more drama and twists to keep you guessing on who is good and bad!Great fighting styles,Eagle's claw,Iron finger armor,High leg kicks from John Liu.If you like white long haired masters like me... you will like this movie also.The White haired masters one on one near the end what could be better!The end finishes strong which reminds me of the movie Fist of the white lotus somewhat.Hwang Jang Lee was so strong that you could have thrown a ton brick in his face and he would have still been coming to you!Scary!
