Bad language!!!

Yes, I love this movie. Leung Kar Yan Is so cool as Fok but then again he's cool in any movie he appears in!!
But..If any of you can get a copy of the VHS version or the HK legends Version and switch to the English language then you will hear some very foul language usually not heard in any film let alone in a HK film!!
Eg. 'You F**king C**t face' (great insult but not for the missus!)
'Would you let my master F**k your wife?'

I watched this when I was about ten and my mother, who let me watch any HK film because she knew the Kung Fu wouldn't seriously damage my health looked up from her book and gasped in horror!!! Then let me watch the rest of it like any decent mother should!!

So, be warned if your 10 year old watches this or catch it yourself if you want a laugh!

I agree, the *beep* C*unt face insult was VERY strong, even to me, and I say the F word a LOT more than I should :-s I have it on DVD, and English dubbed is the default setting, although you can also thankfully have it on Chinese language with English subtitles :-)

But I do think it's a shame that they had to do that.. the original subtitle is something like "your father's a fool", or something, too. It's just western people feeding idiotic western violence and language fetishists.

Kung fu movies are like porn. There's 1 on 1, then 2 on 1, then a group scene...
