Thanks Midnight Pulp.
Can I watch it in Cantonese with English subs or is there only the English dub?
chinthay lov❤💋👊👉👌hhhhhhhh
Millionare or Shanghai which one
@@guillermotongson9533 it's just two names for the same movie
Those were the days... When action stars actually had to work for a living. No fancy CGI, just pure talent. I miss these Legends.
I think so.
John Wick called asking about a dog.
police story 1985 wins that award hands down
People use cgi for normal fight scenes? Lol
This changed during the early 2010s + because you cant have a millions $ movie where the main actor is injured for next 6 months cause he teared up a ligament/muscle attachement during a violent kung fu practice
If doubles are injured its okay they are expandables
I had a cousin who was a actor in serie B movies in usa and hong kong based movies during late 80s 90s. And one time the production had to be halted for 1 year cause he had skin infection from practicing kung fu on a wooden plank who was apparently not sanitized proprely. And got some weird viral nasty bacteria disease by hitting his knuckles/hand on it
He also had to pause production cause he injured his hands and knee during a riskey scenes
Thats why now 90% of movies use CGI and body doubles. Movies finish faster and you dont waste money cause main actors is injured
these are the legendary kungfu martial arts movies. I was and still am a big fan since my childhood
Мне тоже нравится👍👍👍
The best, no cgi or stuntman
@@L0gicAndReason 😢
Hong kong movie .
хорошо. мне и самому надоело смотреть #@₽&&
So Sammo Hung can still move really fast for a big guy. Meanwhile Seagal needs fifty camera cuts and a Domino's pizza to get three punches on film.
Seagal has the most manly run in hollywood.. perhaps the world.
Lol
@@We_Are_Borg_478 Well the Dali Lahma (sp?) did make him a deity so that's to be expected 😂
No you didn't!!! You got a point tho, I can't believe how big he is either.... Sammo Hung, still fights in Chinese films, and he was just on a table with Donnie Yen, soooo Steven Segal literally has no excuse...
@Darrell Williams Yep. I studied aikido for a while and loved it for the technical aspect of the locks and throws but as a self defence martial art I don't find it useful outside of some very specific situations. In self defence I'll stick to my kickboxing.
Those were days Cynthia was trying not laugh at the end Sumo was telling her off pure classic they don't make these types of films anymore 10/10😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
She's the real life Sonya Blade.
Also the real life King from Art Of Fighting
@@Armando.Sepulveda I was thinking the same thing! She just needs the wine colored tux 😁
Yup, Sonya Blade (Mortal Kombat 1) was based directly off Cynthia Rothrock. King from KoF? Nah...
@@jeangentry6656 yup King was based directly off of Cynthia Rothrock
@@Armando.Sepulveda I don't think King was based off of Cynthia Rothrock... or do you have any supporting evidence to this claim?
This fighting choreography is smoother, more realistic, and even better than many modern martial arts movies. I can't even watch some modern movies because the fighting looks so fake, but this right here is like watching a Bruce Lee movie. Sammo Hung really moves well.
watch The Raid movies, they are masterpieces of action and martial arts.
@@McCannon21 I'll check it out. 🙂
@@emekaadibe5553 here's a clip of one of them: czcams.com/video/7Afu-hqj7d8/video.html
@@McCannon21 Thanks for the clip. That mud scene was quite intense 😀
@@emekaadibe5553 watch the two movies: The Raid Redemption and The Raid 2, you'll never regret watching them.
Man, for a big guy Samo could move like lightning!
word ! I guess taking lessons from hapkido GM Kim Jin Pal and hanging with Bruce, he became a badass, lol.
He trained in the same Peking Opera school as Jackie. He wasn’t heavy-set initially but ballooned in size at one point when he broke his ankle and could not perform for several weeks, leading to something akin to comfort-eating, especially with Master Yu saying that, by the time his ankle had healed sufficiently enough to perform again, he was “too fat” to be on-stage the way that he had been previously and ordered him to lose weight.
@@Texy88 i think he's a great example of not judging a book by it's cover. Just looking at him you wouldn't believe he could do those things!
@@Matt-vv7fl He became one of the most respected martial artists. While he lacked the agility of his two other main contemporaries (Jackie Chan and Yuen Biao), he more than made up for it with his incredible fight choreography that packs an on-screen combatant with power (just look at how powerful Jackie looks when Sammo choreographs him!).
While there was a limit to the kind of movement that he could do (he did get doubled for some of the trickier acrobatics - for instance, during the calligraphy scene in _The Prodigal Son_ for the particularly gymnastic bits where you could not see his character’s face it was actually Yuen Biao), as you say, until you saw him in action you would not believe how agile he actually was. Looks like an elephant, but moves like a monkey - that’s how some people described him.
They sped up the fights but Samo is very talented still
This is a badass fight coreography, so much Better than today movies when the camera is moving all the time and you can't see anything.
Retrogamer1979. Damn, I just posted the exact same thing in my comment and I had not even seen your comment. I'd rather watch movies with this same kind of fighting choreography instead of watching some of the modern movies. This fighting choreography is more organic, realistic, and it reminds me of Bruce Lee's movies.
That's western action films. Asian actio. Films still do these things
They lack the action star talent to make fights look real.
Dude, that Powerbomb at the end was savage. 80's & 90's Action Movies had so much more awesomeness!!!
Powerbombed the fuuuck outta her. 😂😂
@@wisconsinlonnie4143, that made me wince when he did it.
bro, I totally agree with your comment. The interpretations were more real today is very CGI and little real scene... he he he
If you can smeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeell …
You can shake off a kick to the head, but you can't do shit if your back is compromised
Two incredible stars in their own time! Cythia was way ahead of her time in a world dominated by male MAs and Summo is just a f**king legend bro! Poetry in motion!
Cynthia is what we call a strong, independant woman....not the attention seekers claiming to be one on tik tok today. 😂😂
Cynthia's fighting in her early Hong Kong work was incredible - she easily held her own against the more experienced Asian stars considering she was an almost total novice to the movie world at that point. It's a shame she's mostly known outside of the die hard martial arts movie world fandom for her part in the end fight scene of "Undefeatable" which went viral for its awfulness a few years back.
I actually remember Cynthia Rothrock from film with Michelle Yeoh.
Didn't watch that, what do you mean?
I believed she is the top female fighter if you line up all the Hong Kong martial arts era movie actress because she is the real deal. The second place I believe is the Japanese girl I forgot her name. I don't think Michelle Yeoh will be in top 5 if they really go on a fight in real life.
@@ComeOnBunny "Yes, Madam". That movie has some amazing fight scenes and seeing both Cynthia and especially Michelle Yeoh in their prime was badass. Would love to see Yeoh do something along those lines again instead of just the low key stuff she does now.
@@StudlyHunk Maybe you mean Oshima Yukari.
Two things ...
1. Sammo Hung was Jackie Chan and Yuen Biao's eldest disciple brother in the Peking Opera Troupe "7 Stars". All their kung fus are real and legit. Anyone who knows something about Peking Opera knows ... the kung fus are real!
2. Cynthia Rothrock gave an interview and said the fight was finished in one shot, no retakes bcoz Sammo Hung can control his movements to "blend in" with hers.
Duhhhhh!
Been meaning to watch that for years but heard it's kinda brutal what they got put through in that opera school. Saw clips from it and was like whoa. And Jackie and Sammo both said it was waaaaay worse in real life
Their kung fu is a form of modern Wushu, which is acrobatics martial arts. Their skills are real but it's designed for modern competitions and performance rather than for actual fighting.
So he had the skill to match her flow and to move in synch with it.....thats talent right there
She's lying though. How can you do a scene in "one shot" when you're using stunt doubles? Look at that kick at 1:10 which is clearly performed by a male stunt man.
Cynthia's still in pretty good shape 30 years after this was made.
Well she IS a martial arts grandmaster in both the U.S. and Asia after all.
I love her so much
@@KamKalambay Check out her CZcams channel. 😉👍
She’s still gorgeous
@@malcolmarnsdorff6782 Got that right
You know these movies are legit when you can imagine the pain each time actors get hit.
the double sent to hospital
Someone definitely went to hospital during the filming of this scene (probably a stunt double).
2020 Action still can't compare to this. Cmon.
The Indonesian films _The Raid_ and _The Raid 2_ come very close and even the oldest of those two films is not yet a decade old.
The biggest problems with action done in this way are that (a) it takes time, and is therefore quite expensive; (b) there are not as many fighters who have the kind of martial-arts background to be able to cope with choreography of this level; and (c) the increased risk of accidental injury involved with such choreography.
@@Texy88 That Raid guy was so under used in Triple Threat. They disrespected him in that Movie coz he is a tough fighter in real life. Aside Tony Jaa and Scott Adkins, that Raid guy, Iko Uwais is a terrific fighter💯🕵🏻♂️🕴🏻✨💫🌐🌇🏙️
Well, maybe the Ip Man movies could. The thing that makes these fight sequences so good is a single camera angle and non stop action. No cutting or "cleaning up in post".
@@Texy88 Action was ok. Didnt like how slow they execute the moves for the average viewer to see the technique, but still too swingy for my taste. This Movies Action Scenes were top notch & too many favorites to select from.
@@Texy88 "comes very close" lol, they're better.
1:35 you can see the full shot and feel the impact from that whole shot. Seeing it in its full glory without any cuts to different angles made it looks more painful than any of the modern fight scenes in Hollywood does.
Cynthia Rothrock! I had such a crush on her when I was a kid.
She live Streams pretty much every day.
@@mikejordan8259 Really? Where?
@@MatthiasPowerbomb Facebook.
Lol..China O'Brien ..They were dope films back in the day
Need to
I love the moment where they both realize they respect each other and decide not to hold back.
That was a very well made roundhouse kick by Cynthia. You could see the level of skill it took.I didn't know she was a grand master. I used to see her in martial arts magazines all the time when I was a kid.
ROTHROCK WAS A QUEEN! To bad she didn’t get the love she deserved in the US. But true Martial Arts fan know whats up. Two legends right here.
Not gonna lie, sittin back with some snacks and watching some 'ol school kung fu flicks is what I call a good time!!!
This is actually quite impressive.
The choreography is really good, with a much better sense of realism than I expected.
This is definitely one of the more believable female vs. male fights I've seen on film. There is usually a ton of editing used in these types of scenes, but she didn't need it.
Sammo is also quite impressive considering his non athletic build.
I think the reason is the actors took some real and really bad damage. Watched this like 30 times, and still think it was Sammo's kick that made Cynthia fly and land on her back, rather than any jump done by her. Must have been painful to the level of broken ribs.
I think Cynthia actually got hurt in this fight, so it looks realistic because he is literally kicking her hard.
@@holliswilliams8426 Hats off to Cynthia. That lady can take a _kick!_ Looked like he caught her square in the solar plexus; but even if he didn't, that kick still picked her up off her feet, so it couldn't have felt good!
@@holliswilliams8426 i doubt it, you can even see that she got replaced with a male stuntman. there is a cut between the kick shoot, look at the face.
Sammo Hung the legend 😎
He should play Bo Rai Cho in the upcoming MK movie.
@PDNSKN poopoo that would be perfect casting! No one else could play him.
I swear Hong Kong was magic in the 80’s and 90’s. This is why I pay for a Midnight Pulp subscription, classic action like this! (Also the anime is on point at times as well.)
Hong Kong action cinema went downhill in the late 90's,after the communists took over because they put on too many restrictions and censorship. For example,you can't make a gangster-movie anymore there,where the gangsters are the ''heroes'' of the story. Something like John Woo's ''Better Tomorrow'' wouldn't be approved to be made nowadays.
@@doublep1980 yea Mainland China really likes that stranglehold they have on their film industry. They even do that to Martial Arts! A while back the Chinese President wanted more of an emphasis on traditional martial arts but an MMA practitioner was fairly vocal about its ineffectiveness. They’ve been slapping him with fines for ages now and he keeps beating up their “masters”.
My goodness. Old skool greats. Sammo Hung and Cynthia Rothrock. Legends of the day. Great stuff.
Sammo doing his best Bruce lee impression haha. Love it
It's 2020 Cynthia looks so stunning hasn't aged a bit
Damn, I loved these movies growing up.
Sammo and Cynthia are legends.
I am glad he didn't kill her and just gave her a pep talk at the end.
You could tell Cynthia was legit. These days in the mixed gender fights it always feels like the guy is slowing down and pretending that she poses a challenge but you get the feeling she could actually give Sammo a proper fight. Probably because today they'd rather give some model a few lessons then try to pass them off as fighters with clever editing.
Yeah, that's the thing with actors and legit martial artists in action movies. They want someone who can act and have screen presence, but they also want them to be believable as action heroes. It's hard finding people that can do both. In bigger budget productions, they often opt for known actors that get people to buy tickets and try to teach those actors fight stuff in a short amount of time.
There is actually a documentary that I saw a while back in which Sammo said “Cynthia is outstanding among women because she is a foreigner, and yet she is a true expert in many of the Chinese martial arts. Her movements are beautiful, and her punches and kicks are very powerful.”
In that same documentary Cynthia also praised Sammo’s control, and that she never feared him hitting her even at a fight scene’s most intense moments.
I sometimes wish that Mark Dacascos could have appeared in more films where they took anything like this level of attention to detail with fight scenes. Apart from _Drive_ and _John Wick 3: Parabellum_ I don’t think he really got that opportunity.
She should be a boss fight for the upcoming John wick 4 😊
@@Texy88 I totally agree. Extremely underrated martial arts actor.
sammo hung looks like majin buu when he gets angry 😂😂😂
2 of my fave actors! Love this scene, Sammo blended tomfoolery with serious moves, and Cynthia..... well she just kicks arse and is so gorgeous
Great fight scene from Sammo and Cynthia. Fight scenes back in the days are way much better then today's.
Fun fact: they were really hitting each other. Cynthia had a cushion of some kind when Sammo sent her flying. Sammo sent a stuntman to eat her roundhouse kick to the face. Sammo was yelling at her to kick him in the head and she was terrified. She tried to kick close to his face but the double ran in and ate that kick. Sammo was satisfied with how that guy bounced off that thing
I love how a fight between a guy in a sweater vest and a girl in suspenders is so riveting.
Sammo makes totally great martial arts movies !
This is a perfect example of a very awesome fight! both martial artists are very talented... I love this type of films. ❤
30+ years later she still gorgeous
I can remember watching this film sooo many times and many others too just to copy their moves. Back then, we had to rent VHS from the video stores and those were the fun moments....
You don't see many female good fighter around like her these days its all about how pretty they look these days. The way she kicked samo like that....i think my back is broken..😂
Check out Amy Johnston. Her dad was a kickboxing champion. She is an actress/stuntwoman
I read an article in an old martial arts magazine where she talked about working in the Hong Kong movie industry; basically, over there, they didn't pull back their shots so actors would wear pads under their clothes (if they could do so without it showing). Injuries were common.
He kicked her ass
@@killersalmon4359 very true
This is real action Kung Fu movie
Always been amazed by Samo Hungs agility for his size
01:30 Holy mother of God. If this were made in the U.S. the insurance companies would have nixed this stunt. Even if there is some semblance of padding in Cynthia's costume, her spine had to take some damage. Man in Asia they don't f*ck around with safety issues for the sake of an exciting fight scene. Much respect to her, not only for her obvious martial art skill but willingness to go toe-to-toe with the toughest stunt men and not shy away from the possibility of getting seriously hurt. She's a real warrior.
I don’t think that was actually Cynthia there. Notice that you cannot see her face at any point during that bit and “her” physique looks slightly different in that shot compared to the bits where you can clearly see that it is her (I have put “her” in inverted commas because at this time it was not unusual for Hong Kong stuntmen - emphasis on “men” - to even double for women. Even in the Jackie Chan fight against the four women in _Armour of God_ there were points where the women were doubled by stuntmen, so much so that there have been books stating that the women complained that their costumes fit the stuntmen better than they fit them!).
Cynthia still did very well to be able to keep up with this complicated fight choreography. A lot of Westerners in particular lack the background training that Sammo and his contemporaries had to be able to cope with possibly having to do a single short combat sequence over fifty times just to get that perfect shot that ultimately makes it into the final film.
That's a good point about not seeing Rothrock's face in that stunt. Still, she is like you point out one of few westerners capable of going toe to toe with Samo and making it look natural. She always handled complex one-take Hong Kong style choreography beautifully. Not bad for someone not raised in Peking Opera!
Most likely a double, even the scene at 1:22 is a double for Sammo. While Asian martial arts films stuns are hardcore and higher level, they do still try to protect their actors and actress when it comes to very high risks stuns. After all its a movie/money making business, they don't want the production to shut down if their actors get hurt. But yea, the difference between the western martial arts film vs the east is that the actors can actually fight and do most stuns.
Probably a stunt double, they can't literally pick up the main actress and slam them into the ground when a double can take that hit and is paid to do it.
I was watching Scott Adkins interview Cynthia Rothrock. The big spinning heel kick she landed towards the end was actually on Sammo's double. He came in too close, and she KNOCKED HIM OUT
Yeah, stunt doubles were mostly definitely harmed in this scene but nature of the job and all that.
That kick was totally devastating the power. I would not be able to take that either lol.
Samo Hung... He is truly one of the living Legends... ☺👌👍
she was always great but Sammo was the definition of greatness.
1:34 Stunt or no stunt, that had to hurt like hell.
You ain't lying 😂
Rose Namajunes knows how that feels...
wonder if cynthias back was fucked after sammo dropped her that had to hurt pretty badly.
Arthur Davis it wasn’t her that got dropped ... it was one of his stuntmen.. the making of this is floating about somewhere...!
@@tygermask1 dude, in the scheme of things, who cares whether it's a stunt person or not, it's a damn movie, so get over it. Hell.. you seem like the type of person..while watching a horror movie, after someone gets chopped up with an axe, you would say...it's fake blood, it's not real! Get a damn life!!!
Mid 80's to mid 90's were the best martial arts movies from China, comedy, action, great choreography everything.
These were the best time of Jackie Chan movies.
They're as good as each other here.
Where was Miss Rothrocks signature move?
The old kick you over her shoulder trick. Lol.
She was freaking awesome.
0:53 I laugh so hard when she flew away
One of the best fights on martial arts movies 👊
always loved how they show bruising in his movies lil things to make the hits more impactful
the double sent to hospital
Wow.
I thought I had seen them all.
I have never seen this one before!
have you seen this czcams.com/video/h4ruXnuLtkk/video.html
one shot fight scenes are so much better than chaotic multiple shots to make it look like some geriatric can fight.
Good flick, Great scene. Cynthia really took those blows like a champ. Sammo didn't pull any punches because he wanted the blows to look like it had an inpact and it shows
Cynthia picked up on the complicated fight choreography prevalent in Hong Kong films of this era quite well. A lot of people not used to that industry really struggled with it (even Ho Sung-Pak, who was digitised for Liu Kang in the _Mortal Kombat_ games, struggled with it when he was cast in _Drunken Master II_ and Jackie said that he had “no rhythm”).
And then some modern Hollywood "progressive" will tell you there have never been strong women in past action movies.😂
This girl could play King in King of Fighters. Very fast.
King was based on Rothrock and a Female Muay Thai champ name Saskia. She looks like a taller version of Rothrock and she played a henchwoman kickboxer in the same outfit as the character King in an 1989 kungfu flick.
She did a TATSUMAKI SENPKYAKU HURRICANE kick to the throat! Ryu and Ken would be proud!
Still crazy about Cynthia even in 2021! She’s a knockout still past 60!
Typically made by Sammo Hung (fight coordinator). I really love his humor in these scenes! :D I also love Cynthia Rothrock (probably the best female MMA artist)!
OMG i was like 4 yrs old when i watch her movie in 1988, one of the best movie back then . .
Lol I still laugh at the fact she always dubbed her own voice in her movies
1:05 First of all, it's beautiful, and second, Sammo was clearly helping her make this double kick
Great scene both Sammo and Cynthia rock!
Rothrock once executed a three tier kick. Even if it was a stunt, it was a damn impossible one and showed what she could pull off and how much force she packed
She is awesome really, I’m a big fan of her since I was a child, I love her martial art
Красавчик и КРАСАВИЦА!!! Я вырос на их фильмах. До сих пор вспоминаю с теплотой то время что проводил в видеосалонах!
Sammo channels the inner "fat dragon" 😂
He’s not A fat dragon
He’s THE fat dragon
Back in the day i always wanted to see her play king in a movie adaptation of king of fighters
Hollywood can burn for casting Cynthia aside. She had so much action movie potential, and the numbnuts brushed her off.
You can be the greatest martial artist in the world but if you can't speak English well like
(Tony Jaa) or have questionable acting chops ( Ms Rothrock) then you won't get super far.
Two masters of their craft at work, in case you didn’t know or couldn’t tell.
Where is this lady!? i love her movies they should make another one with her, Rambo or Schwarzenegger style!😊
Hong Kong action movies from the mid 80s to mid 90s were THE BEST
I still remember in an interview that Cynthia Rothrock said she had fun filming with Samo Hung and he does all the work and not really hit you and works well.
Cynthia is so beautiful and talented. A real martial artist!
Nossa que incrível, como era bom nesse tempo, sem nenhum tipo de ideologias, sem nenhum tipo de frescura, boa luta.
LOL! I can just picture what was happening inside Sammo Hung's mind. "Oh no. I'm not hitting a woman." . . . WHAM!!! . . . . "Damn! That HURT!!!" . . . . . Thank you for posting.
Still can't figure how did Sammo Hung do these stunts.... How he moved so fast.... The golden age of Hong Kong cinema classic old school hard hitting action... No vfx...
He, Jackie and a few other actors, stuntmen trained under tough opera and acrobatic troupe since young.
Sammo has always been chubby, but he was pretty much raised in a Chinese opera theater performing, so he's a lot more agile than he appears to be.
Such great chemistry. Sammo is such a cool dude...
This is the scene where i start to falls in love with Cynthia back in the days. Shes still in good shape til now.
This randomly recommended scene helped me find the movie with her I could barely remember from my childhood. (Yes Madam!)

Samo Hung in a first fight scene against Bruce Lee in Enter the 🐉
That whole film is pretty much a “who’s-who” of Hong Kong action cinema (or, at the very least, contains many people who would later become known in the field). If you look carefully, as examples, you can see the likes of Yuen Biao, Jackie Chan, Tai Po, Lam Ching-Ying, Mang Hoi, Chung Fat and Mars...
And of course there is Yang Sze (who would later become known as Bolo Yeung) and Roy Chiao (who played the Shaolin monk at the beginning - just over a decade later he would famously appear as Lao Che at the beginning of _Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom_ as well as become the mentor of Jean-Claude Van Damme’s character in _Bloodsport_ ).
@@Texy88
I have a question about Bolo. Know that's not his real name but just saw him in an old movie called well...Bolo. Lmao. Came out in the 70s he was listed by his original name. Guess that's where he got it from?
@@TikkiEXX I guess it is a possibility. Bolo would be a lot easier for Westerners to pronounce and remember than Yang Sze.
I looked Cynthia up and she's still acting in martial arts movies, 95% of them I've never heard of but a lot for/with kids. First saw her in Yes Madam a month ago. Meanwhile I've heard of Sammo bc of watching his TV show Martial Law.
Bo Rai Cho. Vs. Sônia. 😂
This is 100% better than any fight scene in the 2021 Mortal Kombat movie.
one thing I learned from this scene is that you never hit your opponent when they are on the ground
Girl is a bad Ass, love all her movies. Samo even said in an interview, she is even an expert in Chinese Martial Arts, her kicks are powerful and her punches.
Cynthia got a new interview by scott Adkins about this movie recently
Great episode
Yes, thought i was going to skip the video, but guess what, i watched the entire interview and discover a lot. Such as Van Damme and Kurt pulling out of no retreat no surrender 2, not being in armour of god, a movie with Stalone that never happened etc.
@Sword Shadow ,
Link?
@@VashtheStampede007 It's on Scott Adkins off. youtube channel. He has a whole series of interviews with actors,directors from the martial arts genre like Dolph Lundgren, Chad Stahelski (director of the John Wick movies,who is also a former stuntman/martial artist), Gareth Evans (director of the The Raid movies), Mark Dacascos, Gary Daniels,Tony Jaa etc. etc.
when you read that those guys did all by themselves makes me appreciate a lot more those movies.
Спасибо за счастливое детство ребята. ;)
just my parents having normal time in the bedroom 😂😂😂
1:36 I’m in a wheelchair after watching that.
Man, Sammo can do an excellent bruce lee. He really can get to that spiritual level too. WOW
Better than superhero movies now
