奪棍 poster

Released in 1979, 奪棍 is an action film directed by Patrick Yuen Ho-Chuen, running about 92 minutes.

What it’s about. It's Meng Yuan-wen (star of The Master Strikes) versus Kuan Feng in this wild and wacky wushu saga of a priceless pole with a spectacular secret. A master martial artist's silly disciple struggles to save it from an evil white slaver, the slaver's duplicitous wife, and even his own bone-headed, but greedy, companion. Hsu Hsia choreographs the abundant action, as he had for both Five Superfighters and Drunken Master. The result is both sublime (for its kung-fu) and engagingly ridiculous.

Who’s in it. 奪棍 stars Meng Yuen-Man as Meng, Kwan Fung as Crouching Eagle, Chun Wong as Zhu Tou Bing and Chun Wong as Zhu Tou Bing, among others.
