Ask MDL: Action Set in late 19th century Canton, this martial arts film depicts the stance taken by the legendary martial arts hero Wong Fei Hung against foreign forces' (English, French and American) plundering of China. When Aunt Yee arrives back from America totally westernised, Wong Fei Hung assumes the role of her protector. This proved to be difficult when his martial arts school and local militia became involved in fierce battles with foreign and local governments. As violence escalates, even Aunt Yee has to question her new Western ideals, but is it possible to fight guns with Kung Fu? Edit Translation

Story 8/10: The only reason I didn't give this movie a 9 or a 10 is because it has no real twists. You know what's going to happen from the beginning, especially if you know Chinese history and how that turned out. I did love the characters though, even the evil ones were relateable in my opinion.
Acting 10/10: I have no qualms with the acting, and it was perfect. The only problem I had was I believe I watched a dubbed one ( either it was originally in Cantonese or Mandarin and then it was changed to the other since the voices/lips sometimes didn't match. Not too big of an issue though).
Music 7/10: The music wasn't outstanding. It was average. It didn't take away from the movie or add to it.
Rewatch Value 6/10: If you're a Martial Arts fan like I am, then this is something you could definitely rewatch as their are almost no twists int he movie.
Overall 8/10: This is a solid movie, not the greatest, but not bad either.
