Above average, obscure, but easy to acquire

A prison breaks starts the story. The five criminals get right to the murder and rape. They get their revenge on the man who sent them to prison. Two students of that man, a woman and a man who previously never met, unite to get their revenge on the escapees.

The fights are all hand to hand. The action has to be over 50% of the runtime. Sometimes it gets sloppy but it never gets boring.

My copy is a digital file that plays on a HDTV as widescreen with English subtitles. This appears to be a fan edit. The subtitles are good with only a few typos. The resolution is comparable to an old VHS tape.

I was unaware this movie existed and randomly came across a copy. Even as a hard core fan of the genre, the only actor I recognized was Phillip Ko Fei. To my surprise this movie is a solid above average martial arts movie of the 1970s. I have watched thousands of these movies and to come across one I never heard of that is actually good is like finding a diamond in the dirt. There will come a time no more will ever be found but today is not that day.

I recommend this movie for all fans of martial arts movies of the golden age from 1967 to 1984 and rate it just above average.

Mandarin-language cinema across Mainland China, Taiwan, and Singapore explores historical reflection, cultural identity, and personal sacrifice, often expressed through poetic visuals and sweeping narratives. In Mainland China, this takes the form of allegory and large-scale epics that reflect on national history. Taiwan emphasizes intimate modernist realism, generational change, and the search for identity. Singapore contributes stories of migration, multiculturalism, and the negotiation of tradition in a globalized city.

The action genre features fast-paced, thrilling, and intense sequences of physical feats, combat, and excitement. The characters of these stories are involved in daring and often dangerous situations, requiring them to rely on their physical prowess, skills, and quick thinking to overcome challenges and adversaries.

The adventure genre features exciting journeys, quests, or expeditions undertaken by characters who often face challenges, obstacles, and risks in pursuit of a goal. Adventures can take place in a wide range of settings, from exotic and fantastical locations to historical or even everyday environments.
