Upon rewatch, I found I enjoyed this even more, especially the characters are interesting here. It's quite a large cast of important characters, and during the movie we sometimes shift perspective between them, including from the bad guys point of view. Mostly we follow the protagonist played by Lieh Lo. The directing is well done throughout and fight choreography is well done, with some shocking moments. At times the story telling is a bit rough, for example when the main character is depicted as training hard for a year, the montage takes about 10 seconds, and then suddenly he is amazing. Overall a strong early kung fu with all the classic ingredients.
