Watch Fist Of Golden Monkey For Free

Don't listen to the Hype. It's awful

There's no way I can possibly love it entirely but I just think its ridiculously bad, but enjoyable at the same time.

The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful

Very good movie overall, highly recommended. Most of the negative reviews don't have any merit and are all pollitically based. Give this movie a chance at least, and it might give you a different perspective.

I have a soft spot for the kung-fu comedies starring Elton Chong. Although technically inadequate, with humor low and broad as it can get, they are usually amiable enough, and Chong is usually amiable enough a character in them. Also, the kung fu tends to be quite good.Not so here. The kung fu stinks. Also, there is hardly any story line, the film just wanders about from scene to scene, just as Chong's character wanders about from one unresolved conflict to another, utterly lost. And the humor, seemingly forced on the actors against their will, falls completely flat.Not just the worst Elton Chong film ever, but one of the worst films ever.

For the most part I'm a big fan of the overseas kung-fu movies from the era when this movie was made.One short scene that I enjoyed was an apple exercise between the main character and the old teacher,it lasted about 70 seconds.After that the only other positive points were...the ocean-view..the island scenery...the martial art trained ladies(maybe a total of 5 minutes) and the fact that I only payed $1 for the movie.The main character is sort of a combination young Jerry Lewis/ace ventura/daffy duck but without timing or a good script.Without those two elements he's just an everyday annoying person.So as in real life people want to beat up that kind of person,oh does he get beat up.He takes several beatings any one of which that should of left him sore for two months.For the reasons just stated the main character rather than funny comes across as being looney.When watching kung-fu movies from this era I don't look for full contact but some of the fight scenes in this movie were close to horrible.There was a lot of swinging at the air that looked to be at least one foot away from the opponent.There was a real lack of choreography.Amongst the gang of toughs was a fella with a black/white skunk hairstyle,one muscular guy with a leopard cape and the typical dumb sounding fat Baron that usually misses his mouth when drinking.They and the other gang members are typical kung-fu baddies in appearance but not actions.Usually it takes two or more persons to beat one villain in these movies.In this movie the gang of villains beat up on the misfit main character,that makes them annoying too. That's good other persons felt the movie was very funny but I felt the need to give a warning.

I chalked up a 10 for this movie, because in truth it is one of the most entertaining films I have ever seen. Looks like it was shot on some grainy 16mil film on a desert island off the coast of Japan.The main plot revolves around a group of "blood thirsty Kung-fu maniacs" (as quoted from the VHS box)who are trying to "take over the world". Although that is never mentioned in the movie. Neither is anything mentioned about a golden monkey. In fact, after you see it you'll realize it should have been called Claw of the Red Crab instead.The bad guys are looking for a "secret manual" which they were using improperly I suspect, because some old guy who seems like he used to be in kahoots with them stole it and burned it. The movie then shows the main character getting his a**e whooped several times in a row for about 35 minutes. Then he learns the secret of the crab style, or something, and kicks everyone else's a**e.Look for the Peter Gunn theme to play in one of the fighting scenes (when the main character fights the fat dude who drinks a lot).Great movie if you want to kick back and not take it seriously

First off, this movie has nothing to do whatsoever with anything that could be mistaken for a "golden monkey". It is a reference to the kung fu style employed by the main character (which has to be seen to be believed). The story makes no sense whatsoever (the characters keep trying to find "the manual", and there's some sort of rivalry between the good master and a circle of evil kung fu goons), but there are some (unintentionally) hilarious scenes. My favorite line: "You're getting bald! Bald...because you're dead! I hope you brought your coffin!". Eagle Han is no Jet Li, but if keep your expectations low, you'll enjoy it.
