When it comes to the best kung fu movies ever made, The Prodigal Son has certainly got to be up there with the very best. This movie has everything, great fight scenes, great characters, great comedy and top notch choreography. This movie is regarded as one of Sammo’s best and i would have to agree. He as made many kung fu classics, but this as always remained one of my favorites in the genre.

Plot

Leung Jan (Yuen Biao) is a young man in a wealthy family living in Foshan in the mid-19th century. He is a martial artist trained by two instructors in his father’s employ.
