Casanova Wong films...

[Monk Sante]

I just finished watching 'North Shoalin vs South Shaolin' and was impressed with the fight scenes in the this film, especially the final fight between Casanova and Han ying.......awesome!

What are the must have films starring Casanova Wong? Can you recommend some titles? :cool:


Thanks!

[Chinatown Kid]

Some of my faves:

The Master Strikes
Warriors 2
Fearless Young Boxer

He also has great cameo fights in Shadow of the Tiger and Game of Death 2

[Tantheman]

I would also add:

Shaolin Plot - his debut role, features some of his best kicking under Sammo's action direction. In the final fight he teams up with Kwon Young Moon against Chen Sing in one of the best old skool fights ever!

Magnificent Wonderman - Enjoyably odd shaolin movie from Godfrey Ho which takes a bit of time to get anywhere, but culminates in a great end fight

Ninja In the claw of the CIA - Not to everyones taste to be sure, extremely cheesy and funny as hell (intentionally and unintentionally), great fights and so cool to see John Liu and Casanova together on screen

You HAVE to see Avenging Boxer.

EDIT- oops, I think CHinatown Kid listed that. Anyways, that's my favorite performance of his that I can think of right now.

Yeah it's easy to mix up the aka's on that film Morgoth as it's known by at least 3 I believe: Fearless Young Boxer, Avenging Boxer and Method Man. Cas is great as the villain in this flick and the endfight in the barn is awesome with Wong really getting to kick up a storm.

:cool:Thanks guys, I have all those mention with the exception of 'Shaolin Plot'. Are there any rare films of Wong that are worth adding to my collection?

Thanks.

[Chinatown Kid]

He's in another film called The Magnificent with Chen Sing and has some pretty good fights but it's not rare, you probably have already seen it as well. ;)

Monk Sante have you seen Master Killers? Cassanova is quite good in that movie. Bolo Yeung and Blacky Ko also do good work, and Phillip Ko is on the top of his game. One of his many performances that will make your jaw drop.

That movie was Korean. Godfrey Ho had nothing to do with its production.

I agree Master Killers was great. Never thought that Blacky Ko was such an amazing martial artist at the time. I only knew him as a motorcycle and car stuntman at the time. He really impressed me as Casanova did as well. I agree, this was easily one of Philip's best films too.

As for Casanova Wong, I recommend "Story of the Drunken Master". I have this on VHS under Drunken Fist Boxing. It stars Simon Yuen, Casanova, Sharon Yeung Pan-Pan, and Yam Sai-Koon as the "son of Thunderfoot", Sun-Yi. He seeks revenge against Sam Seed, who has 3 new students in Yeung, Wong, and another guy.

He did have a memorable fight in Duel to the Death when he takes on a band of ninjas using both his sword and his powerful kicks.

My favorite Casanova film, as CK mentioned, is definitely The Master Strikes. The trio of Wong, Meng Yuen-Man, and Tony Ching Siu-Tung just are too damn awesome here!!!

Check out the movie BLOW UP, if you can find it. '82 Taiwanese modern day lowbudget flick with Wong and Kwan Yung Moon!

I don't know why, but I really seem to enjoy these rather bad low budget contempo flicks like HARD BASTARD, BUDDHIST FIST AND TIGER CLAW and this film..... they are not for everybody, but I enjoy them!

[Chinatown Kid]

Yeah Hard Bastard and Buddhist Fist and Tiger Claws feature great boot action even though they look incredibly cheap. I had forgot about Master Killers with Cas, it does feature some great action as well. Seems like Wong was in some 90's Korean flicks where he looked pretty good, Blues of Chongro with Dragon Lee was one of them I believe.

[The Dragon]

He had nice little cameo/fight scenes, in the films Duel of The Seven Tigers, Game of Death, and Duel To The Death.

it got me back to watching oldschool

Love his appearance in Duel of the Seven Tigers. His fight against Cliff Lok showed exactly why some call him The Human Tornado. I counted 15 consecutive spin kicks before switching to his next technique.

[Morgoth Bauglir]

Yeah I also love his fight in Duel of the 7 Tigers. Every flying kick he does is worthy of a poster.

[The Dragon]

:D!!

I keep hearing good things about that movie : )
