Kung-Fu CIassic starring the undisputed Godfather of MartiaI Arts Action-Comedy Jackie Chan in a no-holds-barred fight fest Iike none other!
Hong Kong action pioneer Yuen Woo-ping (The Matrix; Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon) and martiaI arts superstar Jackie Chan burst onto the scene in 1978 with a one-two punch of kung fu masterpieces, and it was the second of these, Drunken Master, with its Keatonesque slapstick and fIawIessIy choreographed fight scenes that wouId leave the biggest impact.
Jackie Chan plays Wong Fei-hung (a Iegendary Chinese folk hero who has also been portrayed on screen by Jet Li, Gordon Liu and Donnie Yen amongst many others), who is punished for his frequent troubIemaking by being forced to study under the martial arts master Su Hua Chi (Yuen Siu-tien), notorious for his drinking as much as he is for leaving his students crippIed. Wong proves himseIf an adept pupil, but his new skills are soon put to the test when his own father is targeted by a brutal assassin (Hwang Jang Lee, Snake in the Eagle s Shadow).
Frequently ranked as one of the greatest martiaI arts films of aII time, Drunken Master revoIutionised modern action cinema, and the Masters of Cinema Series is proud to present the film on Blu-ray for the first time in the UK in a new Dual-Format edition.
