    This is a horrible American release. It is edited and chopped apart. my suggestion to everyone who wants to see this is to go to chinatown or online and get the real version of the movie. It is called "Drunken Master 2." If you thought this movie was horrible get the real one and you will change your mind.

    Simply put, this is tied (with Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon) for the greatest martial arts movie ever. It has a great mix of comedy (Jackie's step-mom is hilarious) and action (The fight scenes in this movie went unparalleld until Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, I can't decide which o them is better). Jackie's kung fu is as closer to perfect than any mere mortal could achieve, and his "Eight Drunken Fairies" Drunken Boxing style is breathtaking. It even has a touch of drama and sadness to some parts of it, but it is in no way a tearjerker. Jackie's fight at the end with Hwang Jang Lee is one of the greatest he has ever done, surpassed only by his legendary bout with undefeated kickboxer Benny "The Jet" Urquidez, what has been called the greatest fight scene ever by a Martial Arts Magazine. This movie is a must see, as is "Wheels On Meals" (The movie with his fight against Benny Urquidez" and "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon".… Expand

    "Drunken Master 2" (a.k.a The Legend of Drunken Master) was an amazing film in all respects. It had a powerful plot with great acting and not to mention some of the greatest fight scenes ever filmed. As soon as a critic sees a film with Jackie Chan, they immediately dismiss the the storyline and acting. Why? For example: if the movie "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" had starred Jackie Chan, critics wouldn't be raving about it. They would say, "This is the latest Jackie Chan fighting movie" and the movie would not have been hailed as one of the greatest movies ever made. The truth is that many critics are close-minded bigots. The film industry should all bow their heads to Mr. Chan for being the driving force of many amazing movies.… Expand

    If you're actually hoping for a story ... to go with the martial arts ... don't bother watching this mindless excuse for a movie.

    As a DVD and after it was translated into English, the movie is only pretty good. The translation is horrible, the subtitles in the Chinese version are much funnier. And they didn't include the Chinese language version with its subtitles in the DVD. The ending is different from the original, too. Pick up the subtitled version if you can.

    Wait.... I thought this was Drunken Master... Not the Drunken Master 2 released in America as The Legend of the Drunken Master. Well they certainly made everything less mysterious and more childish. Honestly, if you think this is the best kung fu movie ever made, your brain will explode if you watch Drunken Master the original and there are a lot better kung fu movies than that, that don't constantly resort to slapstick without a moment of seriousness.… Expand
