All Men Are Brothers Seven Soldiers of Kung Fu - Shaw Bros Martial Arts DVD

AKA Seven Soldiers Of Kung-fu and 108 Heroes

This sequel to the martial arts blockbuster The Water Margin is considered by many kung-fu cultists as even more action-packed than the original. Based on one of China s enduring epic novels; written in the 14th century; All Men Are Brothers continues the patriotic story of righteous warriors battling despotic leaders; featuring mythic characters familiar to every Chinese; and with a cast that has achieved an equally celebrated status among Shaw Brothers devotees: Ti Lung; David Chiang; Chen Kuan-tai; and Danny Lee. A hard-edged feminine touch is provided by Lily Ho and Betty Chung Ling-ling. The behind-the-camera line-up is also of mythic proportions; with direction by Chang Cheh and no less than four martial arts choreographers; including Liu Chia-liang and brother Liu Chia-yung. 101 min. English subtitled.
