In most kung fu movies, the story takes

In most kung fu movies, the story takes a back seat to the action. For the most part, that plays true here; however, the story is better than average and gives a plausible reason for all the battles. Can't really speak for the acting, as this is dubbed (badly, of course - just as you'd expect from a kung fu movie.from this era). I enjoyed watching this.

Sun Chung didnâ??t get the Shaw Brothersâ?? biggest

Sun Chung didnâ??t get the Shaw Brothersâ?? biggest budgets, but he always made the most of what he got, and The Avenging Eagle looks stunning with its perfectly-framed forest settings and the striking set design of the Eaglesâ?? headquarters. But one of the filmâ??s key strengths is the cast. Alexander Fu Sheng had an uncanny ability to go from supremely goofy to lean and deadly, and that ability is put to great use here. When we first meet him it looks like heâ??s going to be Ti Lungâ??s goofy sidekick ; then we see flashes of his lethal fighting style, and cracks start to appear in his amiable exterior. The gradual reveal of his true identity and motivations is perfectly carried out by the late star. Ku Feng is a memorable villain and never lets his awesome facial hair out-act him ; no small feat. But the film belongs to Ti Lung. Chi as a character is all shades of grey ; heâ??s a deadly assassin whoâ??s only ever known the cold act of killing, and when his eyes are opened and he experiences the warmth of love, his awakening is a gradual one, not some kind of overnight change for good. Even after swearing to never kill again, he murders a pregnant woman out of sheepish obedience to his master ; even after choosing to do good, glints of his old self show up : when Fu Sheng rescues him in the desert in the beginning of the film, he reciprocates by stealing his horse and water. When born and raised a murdering outlaw, you donâ??t just turn it off like that. All this is superbly conveyed by Ti Lung in what is one of the best performances in his long and legendary career, not to mention his fighting performance with the three-section staff he wields in the film is quite impressive. Tiâ??s eventual team-up with Fu Sheng is one of the most charismatic duos in the Shaw Brothers catalogue. The cast for the rest of the Eagles is populated with such distinguished martial arts supporting players as Wang Lung Mei, Dick Wei, Eddy Ko Hung and Yuen Bun, which means every fight is a delight. A remake of this film is in the plans : it has its work cut out for itself to match the star wattage, hard-hitting storytelling and visual mastery The Avenging Eagle displays.

Our hero is fleeing his ex-gang, hoping to

Our hero is fleeing his ex-gang, hoping to find someone he wronged while with the gang, when he helps a seemingly hapless stranger who ends up actually being a kung-fu master. The film is an interesting twist on the standard martial arts tale of revenge, when this time it is the perpetrator seeking out his victim to make amends. The fighting sequences are decent, though nothing up to the standards of The Venom Mob, but it is a film worth checking out.
