Marc White Funny, well paced and endlessly entertaining The One Armed Boxer Part 2 gets better with every viewing. Watch the bizarrely dubbed version, which only adds to the film's charm.The colourful characters have been shamelessly ripped off by movie, manga and video game directors and producers who like me, saw this gem in their student days.Well choreographed fight scenes, despite the obvious low budget and complete lack of special effects.This film is a treat for all but the most hardened film buffs and I urge everyone to watch this at least once.
brals1 Well I got conned. Conned into buying this movie based on all of the 'wonderful' reviews. They don't get much worse than this movie in terms of martial art fare. I can deal with bad acting. I can deal with silly plots. I can deal with disjointed story lines and fanciful and unbelievable twists and outcomes. After all this is martial arts right? And this is to be expected from most films of this genre. What I can't deal with is poor fight scenes and a disengaging, unentertaining story. And this film has plenty of the former and is all of the latter. Bored to tears, I'm writing this review while the end sequence between the hero and villain takes place. Don't believe the hype - save your time and money. There are much better martial arts films, many star rated below this trash, that are well worth a watch; Hand of Death, Shaolin Deadly Kicks and Shaolin Invincible Sticks to name a few. If you take your martial arts films seriously, and doubt this short review, give this one a watch and see if you agree. Fanboys walk on home.
spider-taylor If you read all the reviews here you can see the affection for this unique and bonkers cult classic martial arts movie. I've seen loads of martial arts movies but there ain't nothing like this. I bought it for £2 only because the box art looked intriguing . The best two quid ever !I wont repeat what every body else has said but here are the little things that made this one stand out for me.SPOILERS AHEAD. *One of the baddest villains ever - no talking or fancy speeches, you just loose your head and thats it ! Did I mention he's a blind pensioner. *The signature incidental music for each character *The crazy plot - it is essentially a blind but lethal vengeful pensioner relentlessly pursuing a mild mannered one-armed man who apparently murdered his two disciples. Forget about disability benefit! *The way the cast members play it with straight faces throughout the ridiculous sequences - eg the one-armed boxer teaching his class how to perform 'the flying jump' ! *The extended tournament sequence , with each character more bizarre than the next. *The punk rock intro sequence with pastel coloured freeze-frame montages in a period Chinese movie ?! Its noisy but cool. . . *The slight super natural overtones - stretchy arms, a character who casually walks up walls, another manages to rotate his head 360 degrees without breaking a sweat. *The clever ways the charismatic one-armed boxer uses to defeat his unusual and varied foes ! And more . . . This film is a little delight , its a fast paced plot with not a single dull moment. In fact it might just be the worst film ever made but I give it 10 out of 10 for effort !
mikelcat Jimmy Wang Yu ( or just Yu Wang ) pulls of one of the history making kung-fu flicks of the 70's with his One-Armed Boxer / teacher /sensei/good guy portrayal against a blind portable guillotine throwing opponent ! If thats not enough for you there are about 20 or more different specialties here from swordsmen , to men who battle while walking on the points of swords , to an east Indian guy who can extend his arms three feet in length .Then there's the flying technique which allows you to walk on the ceiling , also Win without a knife waukuma , who actually does use knives .As you can tell there's more than enough to keep you occupied here , and entertained . Take a look !
