Summary:
Wong Fei-Hung knows the rule: no drunken boxing without his father's permission. Rules, however, are sometimes made to be broken. So is anything else that crosses Fei-Hung's path.
Jackie Chan plays Fei-Hung in the wildly inventive and hilarious comedy / adventure hailed as one of his all-time best. Determined to stop the smugglers of priceless national artifacts, Fei-Hung confronts his foes with drunken boxing, a loose-limbed fighting style n which he staggers, leans, weaves and clowns like a sailor an shore leave. The style's name belies the intricate nature of its choreography. The show-topping final smack down alone - whose bravura touches include Fei-Hung turning himself into a human blowtorch - took four sober-minded months to shoot. It's 200-proof excitement!
