Considered a kung fun classic, I found it to be rather average. Lau Kar Leung's direction and martial arts choreography saved the film for me. The fights were well choreographed and creative without looking overly staged. It helped that some of the better kung fu actors starred in this movie: Lo Lieh, Chen Kuan Tai, Lily Li, Wong Yu, Chiang Tao, and Gordon Liu.
The plot revolves around revenge and training, taking place over twenty years. There are a lot of gaps in the storytelling. Fortunately, the training sequences are entertaining and well done. It does have one of the most abrupt Shaw Brothers endings ever. Due to the choppy style of storytelling it's not a movie I'd recommend unless I knew the person enjoyed well done fight sequences.
