It begins with "Who are these people and why are they fighting?" Cut to an outdoor martial arts class under mushrooms. The master sends Chi Kuan-Chun on a mission and Li Yi-Min wants to go too. Master does not take him seriously. Li Yi-Min goes to town and after beating up a fortune teller who accurately tells him what he does not want to hear ends up at a rich man's house because of his kung fu skills. He is soon off on a mission with a list of killers to bring in. Chi Kuan-Chun also arrives at the same house and is given the same mission. It is soon revealed that these killers have since reformed. One has even become a monk. Nevertheless both our guys continue on their mission. As for bringing them in, they kill them instead. There is a mystery here that can only be explained by a long expositional dialog.
I liked the way this movie combined the two different styles of fighting of the two leads and the different personalities. Acrobatic and straight up, comedic and stoic.
I rate this as only average for the year and genre despite the fights being above average the exposition just did not hold water.
