About this product

Product Information
Chen Chi-Hwa (SHAOLIN WOODEN MEN) directs this early, comedic Jackie Chan effort. Jiang (Chan) is an orphan who is eager to learn the ways of the martial arts. A chance encounter introduces him to Mao--a former martial arts master who is now a homeless beggar--who then gets Jiang on the path to knowledge. When Jiang becomes skilled enough, he is recruited by the Sern Chuan Bodyguards who have been hired to transport a treasure known as "The Evergreen Jade." While transporting the treasure, the Sern Chuan are attacked by ruthless highwaymen. Jiang is the sole survivor, and he alone must now protect the treasure and avenge the deaths of her fellow Bodyguards! Jackie delivers the acrobatic goods in this high-energy parody of 70's Hong Kong action.
