After helping him get out of his previous contract (and some messy business with some Triads) Jackie Chan owed martial arts superstar Jimmy Wang Yu some big favors, and he started paying up by appearing briefly in the truly bizarre 1983 action/comedy FANTASY MISSION FORCE. Despite a plot structure that (loosely) copies The Dirty Dozen, FANTASY MISSION FORCE throws in amazons, Nazis, vampires, ghosts, Brigitte Lin, musical numbers, Mad Max-style cars and lots and lots of explosions. There's even a few kung fu fights for good measure, It's far from boring, but is it any good? Let's find out!  The post Episode 222 – We Do Our Own Stunts – Fantasy Mission Force (1983) first appeared on Cinema Smorgasbord.

When Jimmy Wang Yu died on 5 April 2022 at the age of 79, Jackie Chan took to his social media accounts to pay his respects, stating that "the contributions you've made to kung fu movies and the support and wisdom you've given to the younger generations will always be remembered in the industry." But Wang Yu's legacy is a complicated one. Despite being a huge Hong Kong martial arts star in the 1960s and 70s, his international status has now been overshadowed by his contemporaries - especially Bruce Lee - and his infamous off-screen antics have, particularly in Asia, threatened to overwhelm his cinematic contributions. However, he unquestionably remains one of kung fu cinema's most influential figures; Shaw Brothers' first martial arts star whose break-out role in the wuxia classic, 'One-Armed Swordsman' (1967), helped it to become the first Hong Kong film to gross HK$1m at the box office. His pioneering directorial debut, 'The Chinese Boxer' (1970), is credited for being the first empty-hand kung fu movie - a runaway hit which saw the martial arts genre move away from the traditional swordplay films which had made Wang Yu a household name, and paving the way for the kung fu boom of the 1970s. The film was also the catalyst for the rebellious star to break his contract with Shaw Brothers, an unprecedented move which saw him work with the rival studio, Golden Harvest, and relocate to Taiwan where he was allocated the freedom to write, direct and star in many of his own productions, including the fan favourites 'One-Armed Boxer' (1971), 'Beach of the War Gods' (1973), and 'Master of the Flying Guillotine' (1975). Joining me to look back over the colourful life and career of the late Jimmy Wang Yu are the writer and film historian, Samm Deighan, and the Asian cinema expert, Frank Djeng. We dive into Wang Yu's early life and interests, his cinematic inspirations, his notorious private life and affiliations with criminal gangs, and we select our favourite Wang Yu movies. Samm Deighan is a Philadelphia-based writer and film historian, author of 'The Legacy of World War II in European Arthouse Cinema' and a presenter on the cult film podcast, 'Twitch of the Death Nerve'. Frank Djeng is an Asian cinema expert based in San Francisco.LINKSJimmy Wang Yu profile on Kung Fu Movie Guide: http://bit.ly/JimmyWangYuTribute to Jimmy Wang Yu podcast page on Kung Fu Movie Guide: https://bit.ly/TributeToJimmyWangYu'One-Armed Swordsman' (1967) review on Kung Fu Movie Guide: http://bit.ly/OneArmedSwordsman'The Chinese Boxer' (1970) review on Kung Fu Movie Guide: https://bit.ly/TheChineseBoxer1970'One-Armed Boxer' (1971) review on Kung Fu Movie Guide: https://bit.ly/OneArmedBoxer1971'Master of the Flying Guillotine' (1975) review on Kung Fu Movie Guide: http://bit.ly/MasterOfFlyingGuillotineFollow Samm Deighan on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/sammdeighan/Follow Samm Deighan on Twitter: https://twitter.com/sammdeighanBecome a Samm Deighan patron at https://www.patreon.com/sammdeighanBuy Samm Deighan's book, 'The Legacy of World War II in European Arthouse Cinema', on Amazon: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Legacy-World-European-Arthouse-Cinema/dp/1476683522'Twitch of the Death Nerve' podcast: https://cinepunx.com/podcast-episodes/twitch-of-the-death-nerve/Follow Frank Djeng on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/frankdjeng/Cool Ass Cinema - 'The Flying Guillotines: History of the Shaw Brothers Trendsetter, its sequel and Imitators Part 1': http://www.coolasscinema.com/2020/06/the-flying-guillotines-history-of-shaw_8.html ‘Big Boss Theme' by Peter Thomas Sound Orchestra: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pyZn_3jnrVA'Sky High' by Jigsaw: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QjtD8A-MWBc Hosted on Acast.

Donnie Yen's 2011 reinvention of the one-armed swordsman, Wu Xia, does indeed have a sword and someone with one arm; it also dazzles with the unbridled charisma of a late, great Jimmy Wang Yu. Crisp martial arts with only a hint of Donnie's artificial speed tampering makes this some of the most enjoyable and visceral choreography of Donnie's recent works. If only Donnie would push the fast forward button on his long-suffering dramatic moments. Also featuring action icon Kara Hui alongside Donnie and Jimmy Wang Yu, the bona fides are there, and Takeshi Kaneshiro brings a dark, brooding noir to his grizzly but handsome flawed detective.

Well, our first recap from an actor who played Bond turned out to be pretty crappy so why not give it another crack? This time around we’re moving into the legend that is George Lazenby as we recap a movie of his that isn’t a James Bond movie by looking closely over the 1975 movie that is The Man From Hong Kong. Is this movie just one elongated fight sequence? How is George Lazenby the best actor in this entire movie? Should Lazenby play villains more often? Do we like Jimmy Wang Yu and where does Colin know him from? Why does every Australian in the movie have to be overly Australian? Why are the sound effects average but the cinematography so good? How badly racist is this film and why does it not hold up today? And do we get sad watching this movie thinking what could’ve been had Lazenby stuck around as Bond a little bit longer? It’s enough to get you into a car chase and destroying some tables, so get to listening!

Episode 83 (Chang Cheh: Grandmaster) Alec and Derek begin a journey through the career of one of the undisputed masters of action films and one of the greatest directors of the famous Shaw Brothers Studio, Chang Cheh. Beginning with the film that started it all 1967s The One-Armed Swordsman. Following the success of King Hu’s Wuxia classic Come Drink with Me, and taking influence from Rebel Without A Cause, Cheh and star (Jimmy) Wang Yu present a brooding teenaged swordfighter who’s coming of age is complicated by the need to kill a horde of trained killers while defending the very people who cut off his arm. With its vivid color palate and displays of graphic violence, The Shaw Brothers had their first million dollar smash hit, lighting the fuse for the Kung Fu craze of the 1970’s, ensuring Hong Kong cinemas would never be the same. Only four years later Cheh would reboot the idea with The New One-Armed Swordsman this time with stars David Chiang and Ti Lung (more about them later) and would amplify the melodrama and violence to dizzying heights creating a film even more memorable (and homoerotic) than its beloved predecessor.

Il hante les rêves de Georges, quadragénaire qui finit par tout plaquer pour s’offrir l’objet de ses désirs : un blouson 100% daim à franges. Son obsession va virer au carnage sanglant, ajoutant au film une dimension serial killer qui complète le volet fétichisme incongru. On pourrait penser que Quentin Dupieux, a force d’enchaîner les films « high concept », serait sur le point de s’épuiser. Mais non. Des enjeux marqués et clairs permettent de comprendre la démarche des personnages incarnés par le beau tandem Jean Dujardin - Adèle Haenel. L’aspect « méta » cher à Dupieux arrive sur la fin, dans un film court qui s’arrête au bon moment. Comme toujours, il y a un ventre mou, quelques moments où l’on se demande si tout n’est pas qu’une vaste supercherie, mais tout cela fonctionne très bien. « Le Daim » est un petit film agréable et très premier degré, mais qui ne laissera pas un souvenir impérissable.Animé par Thomas Rozec avec Daniel Andreyev et David Honnorat.

Continuing Mike White March, we come to The Man from Hong Kong, a unique kung-fu film that lacks a charismatic lead but has all the trappings of a truly standout Ozploitation film. Directed by Ozploitation legend Brian Trenchard-Smith, the film stars Jimmy Wang Yu as the previously mentioned stale lead who is surrounded by some of Australia's finest exploitation actors including one-time James Bond George Lazenby who chews through the scenery every chance he gets. It's a more enjoyable experience than Stone with different problems that hamper it. The Projection Booth's Mike White joins Chris to talk Wang Yu's robotic performance, Lazenby's fantastic turn as a villain, and the film's fantastic climax.You can follow Chris Stachiw at @KultureStach, Eric Kniss at @tychomagnetics and the Kulturecast @kulturecast.
