Audience Member One of the best martial arts movies of its time. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/24/23 Full Review Audience Member You're too impulsive, too anxious, you're doomed to lose Wong Fei-hong is a student of Cantonese boxing. His best friend, a former rival, is a student of Cantonese martial arts that focuses primarily on kicks. Together they perform in the Lion Dance festival. A rival school challenges the two students in a fashion that is against tradition. Despite their disrespectful behavior the leaders of the two Cantonese schools postpone any battles against the vicious school lead by Master Lu. A master of some kind arrives in town from the north. He joins Master Lu's school and appears to be against the two Cantonese schools. After Wong Fei-hong's friend is beat down at the local brothel on several occasions Wong Fei-hong feels obligated to resolve the school's issues. "Every kung fu fighter must be watchful and very attentive." Chia-Lung Liu, director of Drunken Master 2 & 3, Drunken Monkey, My young Auntie, Eight Diagram Pole Fighter, Dirty Ho, Shaolin Challenges Ninja, and the Master Killer, directs Instructors of Death. Any collaboration with Chia-Lung Liu and Gordon Liu presents a recipe for success. My young Auntie, Eight Diagram Pole Fighter, Dirty Ho, Shaolin Challenges Ninja, Master Killer, and Instructors of Death contain this collaboration and all are 8-10 range films based on storyline and choreography. "If you do not tell me, I will lock you up until you do." The lion dance brawl, the female character messing with the guys working in the courtyard, the fight in the courtyard, the bounded hands fight at the brothel, the theatre scene, the compensation conversation, the testing of the fabric scene, and the final fight in the alley were my favorite portions of the film. "They have two new girls; one is called Chow and one is called Meow, and their figures are fantastic." I hope to one day see all Chia-Lung Liu pictures and the majority of Gordon Liu's films. I have scene all the Chia-Lung Liu films listed above but he has many more and is an underrated director within the United States. Instructors of Death is not in my top 5 favorite Liu films list (Fist of the White Lotus, Shaolin Challenges Ninja, Dirty Ho, 8 Diagram Pole Fighter, and Master Killer), but it is still solid and entertaining. "That master really hits hard; so does my dad." Grade: B Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/19/23 Full Review Read all reviews
