Not understood by most

Unfortunately no one understood the spirit of how this film was designed or are people who are eager to fights and deaths that do not even waited for the unfolding of this beautiful film. The film is focused on the philosophy of Kung Fu and not for use as a weapon or flying fights and things like that. The film also tells a little of the creation of the famous style of Kung Fu Choy Li Fut called. If you're a fan of Kung Fu movies and a patient by beautiful stories. Watch this movie and then print your own impressions.

Choy Li Fut is a Chinese martial art founded in 1836 by Chan Heung Choy Li Fut was named to honor the Buddhist monk Choy Fook (Cai Fu) who taught him Choy Gar, and Li Yau-San who taught him Li Gar, plus his uncle Chan Yuen-Wu, who taught him Fut Gar, and developed to honor the Buddha and the Shaolin roots of the system.

The system combines the martial arts techniques from various Northern and Southern Chinese kung-fu systems;[3] the powerful arm and hand techniques from the Shaolin animal forms[4] from the South, combined with the extended, circular movements, twisting body, and agile footwork that characterizes Northern China's martial arts. It is considered an external style, combining soft and hard techniques, as well as incorporating a wide range of weapons as part of its curriculum. Choy Li Fut is an effective self-defense system, particularly noted for defense against multiple attackers. It contains a wide variety of techniques, including long and short range punches, kicks, sweeps and take downs, pressure point attacks, joint locks, and grappling. According to Bruce Lee:

"Choy Li Fut is the most effective system that I've seen for fighting more than one person. It is one of the most difficult styles to attack and defend against. Choy Li Fut is the only style of kung-fu that traveled to Thailand to fight the Thai boxers and hadn't lost." – Bruce Lee
