consider it popularity and i find this movie a huge disappointment . maybe i be expect too much from this film . after all and it be one of the most well know martial art film of the 1970s and but i could never figure out why . the story be uninteresting . it be also a very talky movie with sporadic action sequence . my big problem with the movie be that the story do not offer a character that i could root for and since the intended hero be an idiot . director chang have no sense of style and and he be unable to hide the glaring imperfection find in the narrative . i know this be not suppose to be high art and but i find the movie boring . definitely not the best example of this much beloved genre . it cult status escape me . i recommend you to skip it .
