be careful with this one . once you get yer mitt on it and it will change the way you look at kung fu flick . you will be yearn a plot from all of the kung fu film now and you will be want character depth and development and you will be crave mystery and unpredictability and you will demand dynamic camera work and incredible backdrop . sadly and you would not find all of these aspect together in one kung fu movie and except for five deadly venom . easily the best kung fu movie of all time and venom blend a rich plot and full of twist and turn and with colourful ( and develop ) character and along with some of the best camerawork to come out of the 70 . the success of someone like the film depend on the viewer ability to decipher which character be which and and who specialize in what venom . one be the centipede and two be the snake and three be the scorpion and four be the lizard and and five be the toad . each character have different trait and characteristic and strength and and weakness . therein lie the hook and we learn along with the student character and find out who these different men turn out to be . we be in his shoe ( so to speak ) and and we have to pick who we trust and and who we do not and just like he do . we learn along with him . not only be the plot and the character and and the camerawork great and it also fun to watch and which in my book make it more valuable than almost any other movie of it kind . it worth quite a few watch to pick up on everything that go on . venom be a lesson on what kung fu can really do . just do not expect many other kung fu film to live up to it gauntlet .
