While American and European movies feature "security guards," they are virtually never the kind of heroes who appear in many great kung-fu thrillers. This time Wu Ma, who had cut his teeth as Chang Cheh's assistant director, decided to go to the heart of the matter. He cast Lo Lieh, the Shaw Studios first international star (from King Boxer), as the best of the best, who must protect a shipment of silver from both thieves and treachery alike. (hkcinemagic.com)

A rather unusual vehicle for Lin Hsiao Lan. Set amidst Hong Kong's then-hyperactive film industry, it features Lin in modern dress and gives her stunt work far more prosaic than the flying, wire fu and sorcery she engaged in in her other films. The actress always played male parts and this one is no exception, although, curiously, here she plays an actor who does female roles(!). (imdb)
