導演：劉家良
Director: Liu Chia Liang

　　本片為劉家良自導自演，倪匡編劇，由劉家輝飾少年黃飛源，陳觀泰飾陸阿采，另有武打明星汪禹及李麗麗合演。故事描述，黃祺英為洪熙官師弟陸阿采之弟子，惟其怕兒飛鴻學武闖禍，拒將所學傳諸於子；後飛鴻的武學熱誠，感動了捕頭袁正（劉家榮），特薦給陸，飛鴻終得償拜陸習武宿願，父子同師，傳為佳話……

　　After Lui Chia-liang's (a.k.a Lau Kar-Leung) first film as director. The Spiritual Boxer, was a huge hit, Liang decided to make the greatest tale of Wong and his "sifu" (teacher) ever filmed. He made a star of his adoptive brother, Gordon Liu, in the leading role, and filled the cast with family members, friends, students, and the best Shaws had to offer. he even played the villain himself. The result was more Liang magic, with an honorable message of righteousness that rings true through the decades.

Challenge of the Masters Customer Review Rated Bad 9 - 9 out of 10
The opening plot is misleading as we know that Wong Fei Hung actually started training martial arts from a very young age. To portray him as having no skills at all and then learning the art from his father's teacher Lok Ah Choy (nicely played by Chen Kuan Tai) is confusing Wong Fei Hung's fans. Chen Kuan Tai showed that he still got what it takes (his character Lok was one of the disciples from Shaolin), and Liu Chia Liang who played the villian executed some fantastic fighting sequences in both the forest encounters (the latter with Gordon).

The training techniques of the pole are true to life and this is one of the reasons why we're all fascinated with his movies. He always try to deliver the true techniques and real martial arts movements to the audience.

Don't let this one slip away!

Wong Fei Hung comes of age Customer Review Rated Bad 8 - 8 out of 10
"Challenge of the Masters" returns once again to the familiar story of the bumbling Wong Fei Hung and his training to become a righteous martial arts master. The film starts very slowly; the first 30 minutes are quite uneven. However, once Gordon Liu (as Wong Fei Hung) begins his martial arts training under the tutelage of Teacher Lu (nicely underplayed by Chen Kuan Tai), the movie begins to grab your attention. Wong Fei Hung's progress is shown realistically and in some detail.

Lau Kar Leung does a fine job of playing the film's bad guy. The film's climax, for me, is the titanic battle between Gordon Liu and Lau Kar Leung, a very well-executed display of fighting skills.

A unique aspect of this film is its depiction of the moral dimension of martial arts training and how that morality plays a key role in the film's culmination. In the end, "Challenge of the Masters" proves to be well worth watching.

A moderate Customer Review Rated Bad 5 - 5 out of 10
The title of the movie seems interesting but the actual plots are not promising. It depicts how a young Wong Fei Hung learns martial arts from another guru rather than his own father. It is not up to my expectation with less of fighting and graceful choreography. Not recommended for real kungfu fans.

Classic Lau Gar Leung Customer Review Rated Bad 10 - 10 out of 10
This is one of Lau Gar Leung's earlier and better films. It teaches the true meaning of martial arts and depicts the interesting relationship between father, son and teacher. Although there are not too many fight scenes, the two main fights were excellent. The training methods in the film was interesting and each specific training was depicted in actual combat. Highly recommended.
