Product Description

Synopsis
Ching Tao is coached in the gentle but deadly art of Tai Chi, by a grateful old man, in order that he will be able to deal with a maniac killer who is after him...

From the Back Cover
When angry nobleman Wang Tao's son is turned into a basket case by Ching Tao (Donnie Yen - Tiger Cage) and his brother (Yuen Yat Chor), he employs a sadistic killer (Yuen Hsin Yee) to do away with the two. Ching escapes the massacre but his brother and grumpy old miser of a father are burnt to death in an almighty inferno caused by the killer. Donnie, now homeless, wanders the streets looking for scraps to eat and trying his best to stay cleat of the mad assassin. When he helps a very peculiar old man (Yuen Cheung Yan) in a fight with some street acrbats, the grateful old man takes him home to stay with him and his wife. The two grumpy old Taoists teach Donnie the gentle but deadly art of Tai Chi to prepare him for the maniac killer who is still patrolling the areas with the aid of a giant wheel. Eventually the killer catches up with Donnie, who uses the softly softly approach to tackle this most insane of foes.

Insane, innovative genius from the Yuen brothers plus a brilliant debut performance from Donnie Yen. A classic martial arts movie for fight fans everywhere.

3.0 out of 5 stars Trickshot reviews kung fu films!, 16 April 2000
By A Customer
Donnie Yen makes his screen debut in this odd yet innovative production from the great Yuen Woo Ping. The story follows Ching (played by Donnie Yen) who upsets the son of local nobleman (Wong Tao). This begins a rivalry between them that results in pyscho hitman (Yuen Shin Yee) being hired to wipe out Ching and his family. Returning to find his home destroyed and family killed Ching is left to fend for himself on the streets. It's here he meets Tai chi master (Yuen Chung Yan) who takes pity on him and gives him a home. After a close encounter with the hitman the Tai chi master decides to pass on his skills to Ching in the hope they can help him take his revenge on those who murdered his family. The Yuen brothers give great performances in this highly entertaining martial arts movie. It's not action packed but the fight scenes are really well done and it's filled with the type of humour you would expect from Woo Ping. Not bad at all...
