Without a doubt, "Drunken Master 2" is one of the greatest martial arts movies ever made!
After the success of the original "Drуnken Master"(1978),Jackie Chan becomes an international martial arts star.In the early 90's most of his projects were an action flicks ,filled with martial arts and humor.
Jackie Chan broke his usual tendency to go against popular trends and created this marvelous kung-fu flick,where he plays the celebrated historical figure Wong Fei-hung.
I love every minute of this movie!The story was well-crafted,there is a cast of stars from three generation-Lau Kar-leung,Ti Lung and Anita Mui Yim-fong,who made an over-the-top perfomance as Mrs.Wong.She becomes my favourite character in this movie.Ths cinematography was gorgeous and the music score was superb(William Woo Wai-lap).
But the most impressive thing of all was the fight sequences.They are simply the best ever put on film!(including Woo-ping's "Iron Monkey"(1993))
Fight choreograhpy by Lau Kar-leung is nothing less than perfect!It's filled with grace,dynamic and beauty.And I dare to say,that this is Jackie Chan best performances in his film career!
This perfectly-crafted marial arts flick is a must-see for every fan of this genre!
