Review of Mad Monkey Kung Fu (1979) by Richard D — 13 Apr 2013
Mad Monkey Kung Fu is formulaic in premise not only for a martial arts film but for a revenge film in general. But it does have a lot of good Kung Fu both small in scale and uber large where one master of the monkey fu takes on what seems like hundreds or combatants.
As one would hope for with a film about monkey styled kung fu, this film also tends towards the lighter side of things adding a lot of humour.
Where people might find fault is the fact that this is old style kung fu. It's not the fast past realistic action we see today and the humour is also dated. But if you are a fan of this style of martial arts film, Mad Monkey Kung Fu should delight and entertain easily.
