Cast Member: Brandy Yuen

Yuen Woo-Ping and his brothers fill the film with stunning ‘drunken’ conflicts and duels.

It’s very strange how such a well-polished and highly entertaining film has come under such criticism from some Hong Kong film fans.

The plot and characterisation are very weak but there’s enough about the fights to keep a kung fu fan watching till the end.

Considering they both draw inspiration from the same source, it’s no surprise that ‘Legend Of A Fighter’ often feels a little too similar to ‘Fist Of Fury’.

Donnie Yen takes on a role similar to the one he played in ‘Drunken Tai Chi’ and once again shows how effortless it is for him to combine incredible physical aptitude with a pleasing screen persona.

This is a real love it or hate it kind of movie and while I found it to be extremely amusing and entertaining, I have only given it 3 out of 5 as it is not likely to be viewed more than a couple of times.
