The first of a popular series (six in all) starring the charismatic and athletically adept Jet Li. Li plays legendary folk hero Wong Fei Hong, a late 19th century southern Chinese healer and kung fu master. The story begins with Western powers (American, British, and French) encroaching on the city of Canton. Wong is asked by the Black Flag army to safeguard the town by creating his own militia of kung fu experts. His assistants include the butcher "Porky" (Kent Cheng), a Chinese-American named Bucktooth So (Jacky Cheung), and his westernized "Auntie" Yee (Rosamund Kwan), a non-blood-related childhood friend for whom he holds a special affection. But the Westerners aren't the only problem in Canton. The Sha Ho gang terrorizes local businesses and has begun dealing with the Americans in exporting Chinese for slave labor and prostitution. A down-on-his-luck kung fu master named Iron Vest Yim (Yan Yee Kwan) has decided he needs to defeat Wong to open a school and Leung Fu (Jackie Chan contemporary Yuen Biao), a traveling opera troupe groupie, just keeps getting in the way. This epic martial-arts film showcases Li's amazing fighting and acrobatic skills and established Tsui Hark as a top-notch action film director. The final fight scene between Wong and Yim entails a dizzying orchestration of kicks and punches while teeter-tottering on ladders. The DVD features star bios, filmographies, trailers, and clips from early Wong Fei Hong films that starred veteran actor Kwan Tak Hing. --Shannon Gee

Customer Reviews of Once Upon a Time in China #1

Jet Li At His Best
The movie really is a feast for the eyes, out of all of the movies dealing this historical character, I think these movies are the best. Jet Li really does come through and does an excellent job in this stunning film. The action and story is excellent and very entertaining to watch. All of the costars are as equally incredible. The characters are those you really do care for and the locations in the film really are beautiful, it really does feel like you are watching 19th century China. The westerners aren't shown in a extremely negative light, it could have been worse. The battles scenes really do stand out. Great stuff that just got better with the sequel!!


Pretty Stinking Awesome
I mean, come on...It has amazing fight scenes, a decent plot, and some of the comedy isn't painfully stupid. It's 2 hours and 15 minutes that just flys by. What else do you want? If you want character development, heart rending drama, and witty comedy, then Hong Kong kung-fu flicks probably aren't your bag anyway. For the rest of us, this movie is the pinnacle of awesomeness. Plus I think Cousin Yi / Auntie 13 is a cutie.


CLASSIC
the first two films of the series are some of the greatest martial arts films ever made.Probably jet lis best film , this one however had more hand to hand action than the second , which had just as / or even better action than the first. <
