  Yuan Ying Fei is the descendant of the one known as Golden Sword and himself is a master of the technique as well as being boss of the town. He is so a cruel man and has killed his sparring partners with unnecessary blows, causing many martial artists to leave the town with only Guan Ah Yun remaining. Guan is the owner of Wu Wei security bureau which Yuan wishes to buy but cannot bully Guan out as he has an eye for his sister and Guan cannot fight back because any time he tries his sister and mother stop him. Yuan is stuck until he learns of 4 kung fu experts who are passing through the town by eating in restaurants and then taking it in terms to take a beating due to not being able to pay. Yuan tricks He Fei,Yang Zhui Feng, Zeng Qiao and Feng Jia Ji into being his friends and then tricks them into believing that Guan is a cruel and unhelpful man. The four go to fight Guan, but do so away from his mother and sister – but the fights produce mutual respect and friendship between sparring which leads Yuan to more deadly deception. Starting with the great title (Magnificent Ruffians!) this is a film with a lot of confidence and for good reason as it is consistently entertaining and exciting. The film sees our four main characters chancing their way through life due to the collapse of the contracted bodyguard business. This section sees the fun and rough and tumble suggested by the title and it is a lot of fun with some genuinely funny moments and dialogue. This continues for the

  Yuan Ying Fei (Lu Feng) laments the fact that he's a great martial artist with no worthy opponent(s) against whom to test his mettle, so he whiles away the hours dispatching UNworthy opponents. (But he's no fool: in an inspired bit of insight, he points out that firearms nullify even expert martial art(ist)s.) His weapon of choice is "The Golden Sword," the family heirloom (a kwando, according to another reviewer, a sword-tipped spear). Guan Yun (Lo Meng), of the Wu Wei Security Bureau, refuses to sell out to Yuan (who wants to expand his territory). Enter He Fei (Chiang Sheng) and friends. The trio go from restaurant to restaurant eating for a beating: all three eat a meal and then alternate taking a beating from the restaurant owners when they can't pay. Yang Zhui Feng (Kuo Chui) steps in and saves one of the trio from taking a beating by promising to make good on the bill- and then turns himself over to the owner for a beating after he himself eats! Later, Yuan intervenes when Chui and the trio are having it out at the abandoned "God of Chivalry" temple and invites them all to his palatial home. There, they're fattened up for the proverbial kill as Yuan frames Guan (painting him as an unreasonable rascal), then provokes Guan into attacking the group (and thereby verifying what Yuan has claimed). Yang inadvertently kills Guan when Yuan secretly switches Yang's bo for a bo loaded with explosives. Yuan then publicly "avenges" Guan by killing Sheng's two buddies. This leaves S

  THE MAGNIFICENT RUFFIANS is about as typical a Venoms film as you can get - and there's nothing wrong with that. It has an interesting subtext about the growth of new technology and weapons meaning that martial artists are left out on their luck, but this is very much secondary to the story of Lu Feng's greedy property owner who'll stop at nothing to indulge in his twin passions of expansion and killing rival martial artists. Lo Meng is a delight as the upright security bureau chief standing against him, while the others play vagabonds who get caught up in the plot. There's plenty of action, of course, the best of it saved for the elaborate climax, and it's never less than engaging at any point.

  A year after the one - two punch of Five Deadly Venoms and Crippled Avengers, director Cheh had some pretty high marks to reach with his subsequent films. While he created some highly entertaining productions none of them ever really met the standard he set with those two films. The film concerns the plight of unemployed martial artists at the turn of the 20th century. Guns and modern transportation have essentially made the traditional security transport agency obsolete. Who needs highly trained and expensive martial artists when you can give an idiot a gun? An unhinged man who has inherited his father's businesses and wealth plus his father's "Golden Sword" skill, preys on starving, itinerant martial artists by challenging them to friendly fights. What the desperate martial artists don't know is that this guy is really fighting to the death. When the only guy in town who could possibly defeat the Golden Sword techniques refuses to sell his property to the rich guy, the rich guy concocts a plan to have our heroes, also wandering starving martial artists, kill him without their knowledge. The rich guy also covets the man's beautiful sister. One of the criticisms of Cheh's film is that they are frequently humorless affairs despite the absurdity of the martial arts. Not so here. Quite a bit of light-hearted fun despite the evil of the rich guy's plans. However once the film hits the last third much of the fun is gone as tragedy takes full control. In contrast, The Crippled Aven

  ***SPOILERS*** ***SPOILERS*** As a fan of Shaw Brothers films, especially the director, Chang Cheh..it's a pretty good movie. It has the Venom Gang, comic relief and good fighting sequences. A brief synopsis on the film if I may. A business lacking escort service ran by a rich martial artist, Feng Lu(Centipede and Silver Spear fame)needs to feed his hunger for Kung Fu, traps martial artists and fights them to the death. As his business is decreasing he looks to expand and targets an escort service inhabited by a mother, daughter and son(Meng Lo: Toad, Golden Arm). As he tries to buy his business, Meng Lo is stubborn and refuses to sell the escort service. The brash and abrasive Meng Lo seeks to fight all the time but his sister and mother always calling on him to return back to the house(mommas boy). During all this, four vagabonds (Shen Chiang, Chien Sun, Philip Kwok and Li Wang)looking for food and shelter actually go to restaurants, eat their and get beaten for having no money(quite funny). Funny thing, all four vagabonds are Kung Fu expects. Anyway, Feng Lu finds out about these vagabonds and befriends the fighters to indulge in his kung fu kicks. As their provider, he bathes, feeds and shelters them. All this, the four vagabonds meet Meng Lo and develop a psuedo friendship. Meng Lo challenges all four to contests(friendly but intense-good fighting scenes). Their bond grows stronger and all this suits Feng Lu. He masterminds a plot to get them all killed by

  Four starving friends and their new friend are tricked by a madman into fighting each other. This movie has 3 major elements that any good kung fu movie must have: great cameraderie between the main heroes, awesome kung fu, and a great villain!

  Magnificent Ruffians a.k.a The destroyers is an action revenge movie directed by Chang Chen and stars Kuo Chui, Chiang Sheng, Lu Feng, Lo Mang and Sun Chien. A cruel man hires four Kung Fu expert to fight with a shopkeeper in order to upsurp his property but the plan backfires as eventually they all becomes friends. These are the type of movies which revolves around Martial arts or Kung Fu and despite of being an average story, funny acting and messed up screenplay will keeps you mesmerized with the engrossing fight. This movie is also the similar kind of movie which turns into a revenge drama, the way people dies in the movie is very funny, acting in the movie is decent and the characters looks more martial arts or Kung fu instructors. Screenplay of the movie is decent and predictable. Climax is also decent. This is a good one time watch action movie with pinch of comedy and emotions.
