YesAsia Editorial Description
Director Lo Wei (of Bruce Lee film fame) helms The Golden Buddha, a 1966 Shaw Brothers film that emulates the popular James Bond films of the era. Paul (Zhang Chong) is a businessman who gets caught up in an international espionage plot when he accidentally switches briefcases with a friend aboard a Singapore-bound plane. The friend turns up dead, and Paul discovers a small Golden Buddha inside the briefcase that contains a set of instructions. The instructions are only one of three parts, the other two being held in similar Golden Buddhas by Lo Wei (doing double duty as actor and director) and Lin Cui. When combined, the three Buddhas will lead the bearers to a buried treasure. But the nefarious Skeleton Gang is after the Buddhas, along with a buxom femme fatale (Fannie Fan) who isn't above showing a little skin to get her way. Luckily, Paul knows kung-fu, so the bad guys had better watch out! Filled with gorgeous international locations, exciting chases, and some straight-out-of-a-Bond-movie bad guys, The Golden Buddha is a campy, delightful adventure that can charm and entertain even today!

Product Information
導演:羅維
Director: Lo Wei
陳氏家族失落的巨大寶藏「金菩薩」誤落在保險公司調查員張保羅(張沖)手上,引來連串追殺,而陳家成員之一陳美蘭(林翠)因擁有另一座金菩薩亦成為目標之一。為了追查真相,張與陳歷盡艱辛,合力對抗,引發連場鎗戰,最終既智破「金菩薩」之謎,又勇破非法集團產陰謀。
Hong Kong wanted its own 007, and Shaw Brothers gave it to them in this superspy thriller featuring not one Goldfinger, but three golden Buddhas. The late, lamented Hong Kong movie magazine Southern Screen declared "The film is in the true Bone tradition, with beautiful girls, secret weapons, and a cunning foe." It also featurs a hidden treasure sought by a millionaire's daughter, who's thwarted at every turn by the evil Skeleton Gang. It adds up to plenty of campy fun.

| Despite the 60's actions cum "cheap-skate" props , the plot itself still will gain the viewers' support. I believe this is the only one Shaw Classic by Lin Cui. |
