zen kwun do strikes in Paris (1979)
No plot no story, just a mixture collage of random scenes of fights
This movie is an incredible experience of absurd and nonsense moments.
At the beginning John Liu, after parking his car on s hill of Hong Kong , is going for a walk and after one minutes there are three men challenging him to a fight. After easily and rapidly hiting all of them down to the dusty floor of the hill, guess what ? , John Liu logically goes back to his car. Then his master talks to him about John's decision to fly to Paris to rescue his father By the way , his father shall never appear in the movie and nobody knows where he is.
Another fighter, a certain Mr. Smith appears three times and introduces himself every time to John as if it were there very first meeting !
There is French woman murdered at the threshold of a swimming pool, and nobody understands who and why killed her . In her last word she asked him to tell the police she "committed suicide". Ah, ah, ah . What a crap !
Then , he was in Paris and then suddenly he is on the sea (is there the sea in Paris). He went to white boat and then he must fight again on a red boat . The boats are two , and after one minute the two boats are one. Unbelievable crap. It sucks from the first minute to the end. I have heard that John Liu understood that he was not talented to turn movies and now he retired to live in a wooden slum without electricity at the border of a river in Taiwan .
The very fantastic moment of the movie was when "they" (nobody knows whom) kidnapped his new euroasian girlfriend, but after one instant the next shot of the movie shows John laughing happily to think the same criminal because that girlfriend is now safe at home. No plot, just a collage and a mixture of random moments of martial fights without any link and without any logical sequence of facts. Pure crap !
