The New Legend of Shaolin
November 20, 2001 I've never seen kid kung fu before.Not long ago, I saw "Kung Fu Cult Master" by Jing Wong. I loved that movie. It is probably the best kung fu movie I've ever seen. It didn't take me long to desperately search for movies like that. My search led me to "New Legend of Shaolin". "New Legend of Shaolin" stars Jet Li and Chingmy Yau. Both also star in Jing Wong's "Kung Fu Cult Master"(which is why I bought it). I didn't like "New Legend of Shaolin" quite as much as "Kung Fu Cult Master". Probably because of the all the kids acting in it. I've never seen kid kung fu before. It was alright, but alot more light hearted. I thought it took away from what good of been a more serious film. There are very serious moments, but with the kids doing goofy things(and some of the adults), I think it lightens the overall tone of the film. Nonetheless, I was pleased after watching it. You can definately tell it's a Jing Wong film. With over-the-top martial arts and a crazy villain who has "invincible kung fu". I gave it an 8 out of 10. Two less than what I gave "Kung Fu Cult Master". It's a great movie!

The Legend Of Zu
November 20, 2001 One word. Wow!I've never seen a movie quite like this(maybe because I'm from the west). As far as the story goes, I really had to pay attention to what was going on. If I missed one little thing, I was lost. I think I understood the basic good vs. evil part of the story, but may have missed alot of deeper stories in the movie. All in all I liked the movie. It was definately worth the $10.99 for VCD. I'd recommend "Zu Warriors" to anyone who likes eastern films and anime. That's what it really felt like to me. A live-action anime. I loved it! In one word. Wow!

The Kung Fu Colt Master
The Kung Fu Colt Master VCD
(3)Our Price: US$6.99Usually ships within 7 - 14 daysRelated promotions:October 28, 2001 Simply awesome!It's simple. I would not be a yesasia.com costumer if it weren't for this film. When I first saw this film, I simply had to find out everything I could about it. My search lead me to yesasia.com and to all the other films they offer by the same director Jing Wong. This film is so loveable. With it's over-the-top action scenes and tightly packed and interwoven story, you will never get bored during any minute of this film. The thing I love most about Kung Fu Cult Master is how much like a role playing game it is. To me, it's the perfect live action movie adaptation of an rpg. If you are a fan of anime and/or rpg's, I think you will find this film simply awesome!
