Jackie was excellent in this movie and it showed how his slapstick humour and death defying stunts go hand in hand. One particular scene entered the record books, as it required over 300 takes.

Review of The Young Master (Subtitled and Dubbed) (Wide Screen) (DVD)
Advantages: Humour and action......!!!!!!!! Disadvantages: Storyline slightly simple.....
...classic Jackie Chan collector's edition. The genre mixes diversely between action and comedy and strikes out a prefect balance. This movie made me laugh alot, however it also intensified me during action scenes. Jackie Chan uniquely used ordinary day objects such as chairs, fans and tables to show why he truly is the 'Young Master!'
This movie has been lavishly choreographed and directed by Jackie Chan...thus we see Chan's brand of jesting humour ... ...brother Lo (Wei Pak) is the dojo master's best pupil. However Lo deceives everyone and pretends to be injured and dances for a rival school in an annual 'dragon dance' (truly entertaining scene). Following this incident his master goes to confront Lo and finds Lo with a prostitute. Lo is expelled from the martial arts school and Lung decides to seek Lo and compensate for his wrongdoing. However, along the way Lo meets bad company and aids them ,with ...

Advantages: Classic Chan, outstanding fights and quite funny Disadvantages: As with most Chan films, the story isn't brilliant - but that isn't why we watch them
...Master you will love this!
The DVD, for me, was a steal at £8.99. The fighting sequences are long and, as you woul expect, the choreography is excellent.
The story? Well here's the general waft of it, when Dragon (Jackie Chan) tries to save his brother from a life of crime and through a case of mistaken identity finds himself on the wrong side of the law! Ending in a 20 minute end battle of tense action. But lets be honest, the story doesn't matter. ...
