Super Power (1980)

I grade Kung Fu movies on a different scale, they were for a specific audience 40-50 years ago. This movie with Billy Chong was entertaining. He's the real deal, not just someone who looks like a fighter. The fights came fast and furious from the opening scenes to the last, more creative and acrobatic than bloody and brutal.

The brief love interest was dropped as the fighting increased. This movie could have used more charismatic characters and even a modicum of character development or insight. As delightful as the fight scenes were it did start to feel like one too many drum solos. If you enjoy kung fu movies this one is worth giving a try to watch Billy show different fighting techniques. He's quick and agile and fun to watch, just don't expect much story to go along with his fighting skills.
