dragonlord see chan return to his role of dragon from the young master . not much have carry over from the first film though . tiger and his older brother and be nowhere to be see while neither be the marshall and his daughter or his son play superbly by yuen biao in the original film . dragon do have the same master though presumably all the other student have move on to other thing . ( dragon laziness at training be portray heavily in this film and so maybe he still study . ) originally title young master in love and this film see dragon ( for the first sixty minute at least ) pursue a villager girl in various idiotic and slapstick way . his rival for her affection be his friend ( inappropriately name cowboy ) play comically by the longtime chan stunt team member mar . we see various scene where their silly scheme backfire . it be one of these scene that we ( thankfully ) find dragon in over his head . this film be notorious in that it fail expectation at the box office . that say and i be sure the expectation be pretty high and and i feel that this film have never have a fair judgment base on it own merit . but even when i try to do this and i still feel that there be a problem with the film . it seem quite unfocused and sometimes rush and and i think the action be too sporadic and not as brilliant a chan other work from this period . the thing that really save the film be the end sequence . a in the young master and there be a fantastic final reel that it full of incredibly exhaust action you really feel every blow . and again and chan go up against the same rival from the young master ( be it the same character . ) and and the timing and energy here be brilliant . chan style of use every last bit of his environment to help defeat his opponent not just rely on pure physical ability be a apparent here a anywhere else . the barn they fight in be full of clever little prop gag and improvisation . this be an absolute highlight of the film and one of chan incredible career . it not necessary to see the prequel before see dragonlord and in fact and it might even raise more question than what it hop to answer . but it must be say that the original film be the superior film and and dragonlord and with it focus on girl chasing and team sport do seem baffle . luckily and the few fight scene it offer ( plus a fantastic shuttle cock scene ) push it over the line a a must see film in this genre .
