Synopsis
From a land where honour and tradition reign, comes the legend of a martial-arts hero unlike any other. The "Drunken Master" can turn just one drink into devastation and humiliation for his enemies. His technique is fast, furious and powerfully funny. Jackie Chan, the world's biggest action star, mixes high-proof action with a twist of his trademark humour as the renowned Wong Fei-hong, the young master of the "drunken" fighting style.
When Chan mixes up his luggage during a train trip, he finds himself at odds with evil foreigners trying to steal sacred imperial treasures. Never before have such elaborate, acrobatic fight sequences been captured on film. As Jackie fights to save China's imperial past, he faces hundreds of axe-wielding villains, dodges fires, endures scalding coals - all with the charismatic style that made him famous.
The film was also know as JUI KUEN II (1994), DRUNKEN FIST II (1994) and LEGEND OF THE DRUNKEN MASTER (1994).
