In addition, he has to face the escalating enmity of a local government type, Lui, a martial artist who has adopted many western values and is conspiring with western businessmen to disrupt the Chinese way of doing things in the region. Tournament competitions between rival academies are only a prelude to the final competition between the two masters, in which the Iron Chicken style will be used against the Centipede style of fighting. ~ Clarke Fountain, Rovi

    Fantastic and well-regarded, action-filled parody and lots of laughs with the folk hero Wong Fei-hung played by Jet Li.

    Imagine...a FUNNY classic martial Arts flick...breaking people's bones and spinal columns in half are now possible after viewing this hilarious well paced classic kung-fu flick. Jet Li returns as a martial arts instructor and moonlighting as a doctor. (hmmm....same type of theme ... read morefrom Iron Monkey?) Got to have this in your collection because of the RARE type of chinese humor in a martial arts flick! I loved it!

    I watched this under the title Last Hero In China, which I'd tracked down on an import disc just because it features Jet Li dressed as a red chicken fighting a group of guys in a metal centipede costume.

    There's a lot of humor here, and the tone is somewhat lighthearted most o... read moref the time, worth a look for a different take on Li as legendary Chinese folk hero Wong Fei-hung.

    Worth a rental.

    Director Wong Jing's spoof of the Once Upon a Time in China series. a Wong Fei-hung spoof, good natured fun, and the chance to see jet li utilize the drunken boxing style! Well worth seeing after watching the once upon a Time in China series to appreciate the satire.

Hardly a masterpiece, the film does work as both a genre tribute and a genre parody, stuffed with gimmicky and patently unrealistic action sequences making extensive use of wires and physical effects,... Full Review

If you spot this one on the video store racks, by all means give it your dollar and a few hours of attention. Full Review

A highly entertaining kung fu flick. Full Review

Joey O'Bryan, Austin Chronicle

All in all, this is an entertainingly stupid action comedy that never takes itself too seriously but fails to reach either the same level of excitement as Hark's Wong Fei-hung series. Full Review
