It starts with our hero, Don Wong, teaches the kid some moves. Little rabbit kung fu? The kid enters a tea house and gets into a fight with a cranky waiter. The big shot, Mr. Wu, gets offended in the action. He expects Don Wong to bow in apology. They fight but Don Wong must let the man have face. The Sparrow, Wen Chiang-Long from "Duel at Forest" intervenes to settle things down. He then hires Don Wong to drive the cart. Cut to Lo Lieh barking orders to his men but his wife is really in charge. Mr. Wu reports in and she bosses him too. They plan to steal a shipment of silver. Don sends a bracelet to his hooker girlfriend and the whole plot is that he plans to buy her out of the brothel.

Angela Mao appears as another bandit gang leader. She has circular saw blades as hidden weapons in the tips of her pretty shoes. Her big fight scene is versus Lo Lieh. I did not like the phony weapons used in this fight.

My copy is a digital file with English dubbing. It plays on a HDTV as wide screen. Though a tad scratchy it is still a good watch on the big screen.

I first watched this movie back in 2013 and made some notes. January 5, 2016 was a rainy day in Los Angeles. I was at the Beverly Hills Marriott watching this with a bottle of Chimay. I wrote up a review but did not post it. Here I am again, looking over my list. Time to complete this post!

The movie did have proper plot and a solid story line. The acting was competent. The ending was, let's just say, not a happy ending. For fans of martial arts movies of the golden age from 1967 to 1984, here's another average movie to mildly enjoy for about 90 minutes and soon forget.

Don Wong Tao stars as a carriage driver who is in love with a prostitute. He needs $120 to buy her out of the brothel, so he decides to accept an offer to rob some silver. Now he has a bunch of bandits after him including Phillip Ko fei and Angela Mao Ying. Also after him is a corrupt government official played by Lo Lieh. This movie is a bit darker than most and has a fantastic finish.

The fighting is above average, and Lo Lieh is much better in the action department than he usually is. He uses a really cool weapon that is a chain with a handcuff type thing on the end that can lock onto people's neck, arms and legs.

Also starring is Man Kong Lung and Wong Hap and they look good in their fights.

The Crash DVD has a decent widescreen print and the English dub sounds good.

This is one of the better old school kung fu movie featuring Wang Tao, and to a lesser extent Angela Mao.

Wang Tao is a wagon driver who's trying to buy off the girl he hopes to marry from the brothel. He needs to make $200 to buy her. He's offered a job that he's promised $800, but of course the job is of a shady kind, to steal and transport a chest containing silver. Group of bandits headed by Angela Mao is after him also to get the silver.

There's story, and good kung-fu action in this classic movie. Each of the actors can act, and directing is also good. Wang Tao movies really well in this movie. Fight scenes are well choreographed, and showcases the actor's clean body line.

Overall, it's one of the better old school kung fu movies made, and is worth viewing.

it was good how they set up the robbery and the fighting. there is also something that makes you feel bad for shang yee. it is the thought of how he was treated for stealing when all he wanted was his girl shaochoi but it ends up being a fight over money a rep. very good
