3.0 out of 5 starsGood plot, however the picture is a mess!
By B. Mustafa on 14 May 2002
Format: DVD
I remember watching this jackie chan film on video when I was a kid, however the picture is horrible. Trust me the DVD picture is so poor it looks worse than the VHS version. The picture has not been cleaned up at all and thats the main disappointment. On the other hand, the DVD does contain five minutes of extra footage that was cut from the VHS version. Overall a good film with a fascinating idea of a plot, the fight scenes with the monks and the final fight scenes are brilliant. If you haven't seen it yet, I would recommend this to any fan, however be warned about the picture's quality, check it out on VHS first.

5.0 out of 5 starsExcellent!!! One of the best Jackie Chan films to have.
By B. Mustafa on 21 Nov. 2000
Format: VHS Tape
Now this is what I call a Jackie Chan film! The fight scenes are super, and you get to see many twists and turns within the whole ninety eight minutes of the whole film!! Jackie plays a man bent on revenge but who is the killer!! you will never find out until the end as of always! but still it keeps you guessing along the way. Also stars James Tien (the Big Boss, Fist of Fury), as a tough fighting warrior. The story is quite straightforward, Jackie and friends take a girl's father to mountains in the hope of finding a cure for his illness. What follows is plenty of high kick fighting and adventure combined. If you are going to start collecting Jackie Chan movies, make sure you get this!!!! An Absolute MUST!!!

4.0 out of 5 starsJACKIE CHAN THE MAN
By A Customer on 20 Nov. 2001
Format: DVD
I thought this film was a great action film that shows how strange the old Eastern Cinema was. Jackie plays a bodyguard of a womans brother, who needs serious help. This is a really fun film and it is very entertaining. This is not the best Jackie Chan movie ever mode, but in the Eastern Cinema it is definatly near the top!!!!

HASH(0x9641bed0) out of 5 stars Classic Hong Kong Kang-fu film 22 July 2003
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
Format: DVD
This is a bit similar to "The Killer Meteors", contains some complicated stories, unbelievable attacks(comedy!?) or so. That means this is is a very Hong Kong movie!! But looks little more serious than KM and have more Kang-fu action. I think Jackie is so cool in Chinese traditional costume.
Conclusion --> Must see item for classic fans.

HASH(0x9622f354) out of 5 stars Very outstanding for the standard of the 70's hk movies 2 Aug. 2001
By Pèrtinax - Published on Amazon.com
i like the most of the Jackie Chan's pre-humoristics movies and this movie is one of the best. Magnificient Bodyguards is outstanding for the standard of the 70's hk movies, the history is unpredictable, and full of action all the movie... the final fight is amazing... if you like the old kung fu movies you will enjoy Magnificient bodyguards.

HASH(0x9622f7c8) out of 5 stars Not so much. 13 Jun. 2010
By BJ - Published on Amazon.com
Format: DVD Verified Purchase
I love Jackie Chan! Absolutely love him! Sadly, this ISN'T a real "Jackie Chan type" movie. Filmed at the pre-beginning of his career, it's one of the movies Jackie made for Lo Wei. That should tell you something. There wasn't a single movie he made for Lo Wei that was even remotely good. Tell you the truth, people - I actually stopped it about 20 minutes in to the show and never finished it. Yuck comes to mind. But then Jackie would be the first to tell you that. Everything he made with Lo Wei was a bomb. If it says, Jackie Chan and Lo Wei together, anywhere on a DVD, run! Truely not worthy of Jackie's talents.
