Description
Martial arts movie legend Sammo Hung (Martial Law, Millionaires Express) sets a new standard in action with the fastest, funniest and most furious kung fu comedy ever. ‘Knockabout’ provides a fantastic starring vehicle for Hung’s protégé, Yuen Biao (‘Prodigal Son’, ‘Iceman Cometh’), the most acrobatic action star in Hong Kong cinema history.
Two down-at-heel conmen, Yipao (Yuen Biao) and Taipao (Leung Kar-yan, ‘Warriors Two’) decide to learn kung fu from a martial arts master (Shaw Brothers legend Lau Kar-wing). When they discover that their teacher is really a ruthless killer, Taipao is murdered, and Yipao is forced to learn the skills of a kung fu fighting beggar (Sammo Hung) to take revenge.
Discover one of the greatest action finales in the history of Hong Kong Cinema, and experience a career-high performance from physical genius Yuen Biao. Knockabout is not to be missed!
