Cast Member: Yee Yuen

‘Shaolin Kung Fu’ is really just a series of weak fight sequences strung together by a paper thin plot.

The fight scenes are about the film’s only saving grace but even they aren’t enough to make it a worthwhile watch.

Unless you find poorly made kung fu movies a source of amusement then I would seriously suggest you steer well clear of ‘Sorrowful To A Ghost’.

Kuo lets the odd moment of peculiar editing affect an otherwise slick kung-fu drama; the final twenty minutes in particular seems far too rushed in comparison to the majority of the film.

‘The Blazing Temple’ is not Joseph Kuo’s best nor is it near his very pinnacle. It does, though, offer some solid enjoyment for patient viewers.

‘The Cavalier’ is a below par effort from Joseph Kuo, a director who should know better.

‘Whiplash’ may not be a particularly well known film, but with such a skilful blend of characterisation and robust fight scenes it really should be.
