I can honestly say I have never seen him in a bad movie from the old skool days. Ever! The only other person I can say that about is John Liu.

Warriors Two as Leung Jarn is the role he was born to play. There are so many other classics he was in. The odd couple, the victim, the ways of kung fu, knockabout, miracle fighters, dreadnaught, Iron monkey(original), The thundering mantis, the postman fights back, Legend of a fighter, two on the road, sleeping fist...............

Legend of a Fighter is up there with his best, 5 essential beardy films IMO would be;

The Victim

Warriors Two

Knockabout

2 on the Road

Thundering Mantis

I would exchange Two on the Road for Sleeping Fist, otherwise it's spiot on.

For me its The Victim and Legend of a Fighter

Not to say others arent good Warriors Two and 2 on the road for example but the above 2 have ALL the elements for me with The Victim just taking it- very skilled directing from Sammo and the fight scenes are beyond high level- Hardest film he worked on according to one interview I saw.

I thought Thundering Mantis was poor and cantonen Iron a bit too contrived
