2.0 out of 5 stars This movie is pretty bad, July 20 2001

This review is from: Master With Cracked Fingers (DVD)

I am a Jackie Chan fan, but this movie is not that great. The acting is bad, the scenes are choppy, and the fight sequences are not anything spectacular. Personally, I found it a hardship to watch the whole movie. The only reason I gave this movie two stars instead of one is the fact that Jackie Chan is in part of the movie.

2.0 out of 5 stars Early 1970's Chan flop had its moments!, April 2 2001

This review is from: Master With Cracked Fingers (VHS Tape)

This film marked Jackie Chan's first lead role in the world of the Hong Kong film industry. This film had a classic plot of vengence and Kung Fu training much similar to the Shaw Brothers era films of the 60's and 70's. The film was a low budget, slipshod, chop socky Kung Fu flick which plots Chan as a waitor at his Uncle's resturant. It follows Jackie from his childhood of eagerness towards Kung Fu where he learns from a dirty old beggar (Classic master from 100's of Kung Fu flicks throughout the 70's) and learns the Snake Fist style as well as the mystical art of blind fighting. After learning from the old man and fighting the local triad mobs that are torturing his Uncle he exacts revenge on his fathers killer. However, Jackie did not finish filming this film and in 1978 a shifty producer used a Jackie Chan look alike to continue the filming. The film even uses scenes from Drunken Master and has Jackie blindfolded at the end in order not to show that a look alike was used. This film does have its moments though and if your a Chan fan like myself, you'll definitely want to pick this one up for your collection!!!

2.0 out of 5 stars Weird Jackie Chan 'fu flick, July 12 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Master With Cracked Fingers (DVD)

This, Jackie's first starring role, definately didn't make him into a kung fu star like he had hoped. The only reason I gave it 2 stars was because, of course, it has Jackie Chan in it and because of some weird demented humor. I have to warn you that the fight scenes are pretty bad. If you want to see a 70's JC kung fu flick, get Drunken Master or Snake in the Eagle's Shadow.

1.0 out of 5 stars Only little Jackie here.
This film features only little Jackie, instead they used a double to complete some scenes including the final fight. Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars Brilliant
This is the best martial arts film I have ever seen. It starts off well with Young Jackie getting taught by an old man (who seems a bit too much like a paedophile to start with)... Read more
