Not really a sequel

This was a somewhat disappointing companion to the original Fearless Hyena made in 1979. There are too many plot lines that finally come together at the end in the movie's only martial arts action. I must say that this half hour scene almost makes up for the rest of the movie, but I find myself demanding more of Jackie Chan. The same characters from the first movie are back, but in a totally unrelated story and in different roles. This is still a good enough movie, but given the quality of its namesake I expected a little more out of it.

jackie didnt want this film released, and hes only really in it a little of the time. so i hated it. jackie should have ot his way and this should have never been released. because chan is the man and is always right. by the way, this is a terrible movie. if it had chan more, i might have liked it more. if chan would have endorsed it, i might have liked it more. but he isnt, and he didnt, so im with him all the way.

Nope...

The second movie compared to the first, is not as good as the first, even though Jackie is good and they try to devise new tricks, eg, Jackie defeats a guy with a pair of slippers, and there is a hilarious shirt tugging twisting scene.

However, the movie still falls a little flat.

Avoid!

Jackie had well and truly left the Lo Wei Motion Picture Co when this hodgepodge was put together, a mindless cash-in that mixes scenes of Chan with that of a disguised double, creating a truly awful sequel that bares little resemblance to its successful predecessor. Some actors return (Yen Si Kuan seems to have come back from the dead) with the story concerning the Heaven and Earth fighters who wipe out any combatants of rival styles, of which includes Jackie's father and summarily the former seeks vengeance but it's all pretty bad stuff, proof if proof be needed of this being Lo Wei's last grab at credibility which ultimately concludes as a wasted exercise. Thankfully the real Jackie Chan went on to live, and work, happily ever after.

patched together Low Wei junk

There some good bits pieced together from outtakes and other films; but this is not Fearless Hyena II, there IS no fearless Hyena II.

After Jackie Chan finally got out of his contract with Lo Wei, Lo Wei too the le4ft-overs from Chan's last film with Lo Wei's production company (fearless Hyena, obviously), which Chan himself had written and directed, and pasted it together with no rhyme or reason other than to make some extra dough.

A more cynical hack than Lo Wei could hardly be imagined.

Fearless Hyena is an excellent film.

This "II" thing - total junk. Skip it.

Trivia
When movie Producer Willie Chan left the Lo Wei Motion Picture Company to join Golden Harvest, he advised Jackie Chan to decide for himself whether or not to stay with Wei Lo. Chan began work on the movie, but then broke his contract and joined Golden Harvest. This prompted Lo to blackmail him with Triads, and to blame Willie Chan for his star's departure. The dispute was resolved with the help of fellow actor and Director Jimmy Wang Yu, allowing Chan to stay with Golden Harvest. In order to complete the movie, Lo hired stunt doubles to take Chan's place in the remainder of the movie, and used alternative takes and re-used footage from the first movie. Chan mentions that the end product of the movie was so bad, that he even tried to stop it from being released by going to court, but Lo released it regardless.

Goofs
When Heaven and Earth burn down the house with Chan Chi-Pei in it and Chan Chi-Pei comes out burning, the protection mask of the stuntman is clearly visible.
