「なつかしの香港映画ブログ」A Chinese young man (Jackie Chan) who masters "Drunken boxing" confronts a British smuggling group.

Cast
1. Wong Fei-hung (Jackie Chan)
The son of a doctor. Using the "Drunken boxing" banned by his father puts him in a pinch. He is a courageous but reckless man.
(Action star. He is famous for his dangerous stunts, which Sylvester Stallone also admitted. "Snake In The Eagle's Shadow" (1978), "The Big Brawl" (1980), "Winners and Sinners" (1983), "Wheels on Meals" ( 1984), "The Armor of God" (1986), etc.)

2. Wong Kei-ying (Ti Lung)
Doctor. Fei-hung's father. He gets into trouble over the Chinese artifacts.
(Action star. He is also popular in Japan and appeared in many kung fu movies before "A Better Tomorrow" (1986).)

3. Ling (Anita Mui)
Fei-hung's stepmother. She tries to sell her valuables to her friends to buy the ginseng that Fei-hung has lost.
(Actress with a very unique look. She is more suitable for comedy than serious drama. In "Rumble in The Bronx" (1995), she played the unlucky owner whose convenience store is destroyed.)

4. Tsang (Felix Wong)
Fishmonger. Fei-hung's friend. He doesn't want to lose to Fei-hung in kung fu.
(Idol actor in Hong Kong. He has appeared in many TV dramas and movies.)

5. Fun (Ho Wing-fong)
A woman in the town who wants to learn Fei-hung's "Drunken boxing". Tsang, who loves Fun, doesn't like her hope.

6. Fu Wen-chi (Lau Kar-leung)
A famous soldier and a master of spears. He tries to recover the "Imperial Seal" (Chinese artifact) from the thief.
(Hong Kong actor, director and martial arts coach. He directed orthodox kung fu films such as "The 36th Chamber of Shaolin" (1978) and "Martial Arts of Shaolin" (1986), and played a doctor in "Twin Dragons" (1992).)

7. Onlooker (Tai Po)
Fei-hung confronts the men who robbed Ling of the bag. Onlookers watch it. A funny scene of kung fu and comical moves.
(A comical actor. He often plays villains such as thug or criminal, but in "Project A" (1983), he played the marine police member humorously.)

8. Henry (Ho-Sung Pak)
British consul's henchman. He manages the steel factory and tries to make the workers work under even more severe conditions.
(Korean stuntman.)

9. John (Ken Lo)
British consul's henchman. His role is to defeat the enemy with dangerous kicks. Fei-hung and he face off at the steel factory.
(Jackie's bodyguard. He mainly plays a villain, but in "Rob-B-Hood" (2006), he humorously played a guy with a weird hairstyle.)

10. British consul (Louis C. Roth)
