Some quick stats for fans of martial arts films. Body count: 87, with 6 ambiguous. Nude scenes: 0. Best death sequence: An old lady impales a marauder with a completely blunt *FIREPLACE LOG* which she flips at him with her cane. Awesome! Spoken dialogue dubbed over in English.
Firstly, do not believe the plot synopsis listed above. The film has nothing to do with an "infamous bandit" or a commissioner. The negative reviews posted are perhaps for another film of the same title.
In Rage of the Master, an estranged relative returns to his family's martial arts school in order to destroy it and to prove himself. After wiping out most of the school and killing its master (his brother) and his brother's wife, some surviving members of the family go to a local farm seeking help. After a few failed attempts, the family enlists the help of a young kung-fu expert, Tiger (played by Tiger Yang), and his aging, but highly skilled mother. Meanwhile, the estranged relative plots from his casino to hunt down and kill the remaining family members, with the help of droves of casino cronies and some strangely dressed Thai boxing experts, one of whom is disturbingly similar in costume to Michael Jackson. When the thugs catch up with the protagonists, there's plenty of action and non-stop bloodshed!
With so many characters to keep track of in the film, it can get confusing trying to keep tabs on each character. The young male characters in the film are all in similar costume and hair and are difficult to differentiate at times. Several side ventures also add to the confusion.
The acting in the film is on par, but nothing special. Some characters are better developed than others, but this is forgivable, given the number of characters in the film.
The fight scenes in this movie are epic. After a couple of low level skirmishes between the two parties, things really start heating up. In the film's later fights, literally dozens of bodies drop during some encounters. The choreography is fine, and almost all of the films fights are group-on-group, rather than individual one-on-ones. The fighting is about 90% genuine martial arts skill and 10% special effects, which is a good blend. An added plus is the display of Thai boxing, which makes a nice contrast to the kung-fu used by most of the characters.
The skill of the actors is obvious everywhere, but surprisingly, the most entertaining character in the movie is Tiger's aging mother, who performs such outlandish stunts as killing a man by hurling a pair of scissors into his chest, the aforementioned impalement by a piece of firewood, and later, hurling giant blocks of concrete with a flip of her cane. She even manages to keep fighting despite being run through with a knife and suffering multiple stab wounds.
Rage of the Master's action is hard to beat, and gets an easy five stars. The plot gets four, and the acting gets three stars. Any kung-fu afficionado will definitely enjoy this movie. I purchased it as part of a bundle in the Martial Arts Action Pack, which includes three other feature-length films, all respectable. Regardless of how you purchase it, Rage of the Master is a must-see.
