In the historically based Kung fu drama Legend of a Fighter director Yuen Woo Ping offers his version of the early life of martial artist Fok Yuen Gap (played by Leung Kar Yan). Set at the beginning of the 20th century, Fok is considered too weak to learn the family Kung fu style. Still, as his father can break eggs by growling, he probably considers most people weak. The teenager forms a bond with his humane Japanese tutor (Kurata Yusuaki), who secretly teaches martial arts. The story builds to a moving climax as 12 years later pupil and now ageing master are forced by honour into a deadly duel. The opening and closing acts are by far the strongest, the plentiful fight scenes being balanced by gentle humour and emotions torn between friendship and duty. Both lead actors are excellent, with Yusuaki being particularly fine as the noble warrior-teacher. The middle, a series of disconnected tableaux in which Fok establishes his stature as a Kung fu expert, goes on much too long to sustain interest. Nevertheless the story of Fok Yuen Gap, a genuine Chinese hero who was also the inspiration for Bruce Lee's Fist of Fury (1972), is fine and Woo Ping delivers the one-on-one Kung fu action with the touch of a master.On the DVD: The 1.77:1 image doesn't benefit at all from its anamorphic enhancement, the entire film being presented slightly out of focus so that by the end eyes are likely to be aching. The opening 4:3 Academy ratio archive footage has been distorted to 1.77:1, while the original trailer shows Legend of a Fighter was shot in an extremely wide format--possibly the Hong Kong equivalent of early 2.66:1 CinemaScope, or even 2.74:1 Techniscope--which means that large amounts of the original image are missing. This is very obvious as characters constantly vanish off the sides of the screen or are cropped in half. Additionally, and again compared to the crisp, sharp trailer, colours are washed out, while the mono sound distorts whenever the music gets loud. The film is available in Mandarin with optional English subtitles, or in an awful English dub littered with inappropriate obscene language. There is a nine-minute interview with Leung Kar Yan, and a 23-minute interview with Yuen Woo Ping, which is a slightly longer version of the conversation presented on the Magnificent Butcher DVD: it's notable how he expresses his love of science fiction and indicates he would like to make a SF Kung-fu movie, something he achieved with The Matrix (1999). There is a Hong Kong Legends' promo for the film, together with seven further new trailers. The photo gallery is pointless, simply cropping some shots even further than the main presentation. --Gary S Dalkin

In this DVD, you will discover many defense techniques against a gun, performed by Moshe Galisko, Israeli expert of world renown. It is important to keep in mind, especially for beginners, that the best defense against a firearm is, in most cases, to flee. But if it is not possible to flee, then the knowledge of effective and appropriate techniques can make the difference between life and death. There is no place here for approximate. The actions must be specific and controlled. That is why this video really puts emphasis on detailed explanation of each movement and understanding of all gestures. Each technique will thus be dissected for optimal efficiency in training as in real life. You will learn techniques with a gun held in one hand, two hands, threats to the head, throat, neck, chest, face, back... a wide range of threats in order to meet the majority of attacks you might face. Moshe Galisko: the highest position of modern Kapap, practicing martial arts for 47 years. He teaches the military elite and works with anti-terrorist agencies in the world. In succeeding his father, he has developed a modern style of Kapap worldwide. He is: President and Chief Instructor of the International Kapap Association, President Director of the Israeli and European Karate organization (8th dan Shotokan Karate), head of the Center for Martial Arts in Israel (Beer Sheva), former coach of the Israeli Special Forces team, and instructor of CQB defensive tactics.
