It starts with acrobats and the cutest little trained dog along with the opening credits. Teacher receives a message to please send men to guard the money for the famine relief. (Why are they sending gold instead of food?) Ten minutes later they are still talking about it. Finally, on the road our girl and hero easily defeat two would-be robbers but they are pursued. At the inn our hero reveals they carry gold to the inn mistress but says that is part of his plan. Is he another dumb male or a clever chap? He switched the gold with rocks, somehow, and that made him clever. Our team is now back on the road for another robber attack. This pattern keeps repeating. I found it amusing that Hsu Feng is upset whenever Wong Goon-Hung gets a kiss from a chick but she isn't putting out either. Most important, and all the other chicks end up dead so what's her problem! The action is good and plenty yet that often becomes a problem when all the fights start to look alike. There is a fight on stilts that defies all physics and worse just doesn't look any different. Also a Korean "Akido fighter" (pronounced Ahh–ki-doh) shows up but again offers nothing different in style. (Akido is Japanese and not pronounced like that.) My copy is English dubbed and in 4:3 screen format with a lot of the sides cut off to fit the VHS it was likely made for with minimal acceptable resolution for modern television viewing. I give it a 6 out of 10 for standard as expected with a tad better than average fights.
