This was the first in a series of films directed by Tsui Hark. While there’s plenty of great action sequences and comedy as well it suffers from a meandering plot.Wong’s role as a protector of Chinese pride is shown in the first scene. Wong is on a Chinese navy ship watching a lion dance when French soldiers in another ship start shooting at them and kill one of the dancers. Wong jumps into action, catching the flying lion’s head and continues the routine. The host of the festivities, a Chinese general then complains about all the foreigners coming to take over China’s ports and surrounding countries. He asks Wong to continue training the Black Flag Army and prepare it for any conflagration with the outsiders.The problems with the West is emphasized throughout the film. Wong for instance goes to the authorities to complain about the foreign ships constantly shooting and mistreating the Chinese. Instead he’s told he has no authority and the government is carrying out a Westernization policy which means keeping good relations with the foreigners was paramount. That should have been the main plot but it wasn’t.Instead they throw in the side shows like Foon (Yuen Biao) who wants to be Wong’s disciple and all the trouble he causes. He provides the laughs. Wong’s 13th Aunt (Rosamund Kwan) returns from America to provide some romance. There’s also a gang that’s out to get Wong. They leads to the action. Then another Kung Fu master arrives challenging Wong which provides a rival. It turns out there is no real story other than Wong being a hero dealing with different situations that come at him.C ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Wong Fei Hung is a Legend in Defending China *by N***C on Reviewed in the United States on September 27, 2021* This movie is in Cantonese, so turn on closed captioning to get English subtitles. Excellent film about a legendary martial artist and doctor named Wong Fei Hung, who is famous for protecting the rights of Chinese people during foreign occupations of Chinese territories. He was a well respected man in his community. In this movie, he has a school that trains students in kung fu and medicine. He does not like how westerners abuse and manipulate the Chinese, such as Americans lying to people about signing and paying to go to America only to learn that it is all a lie. One Chinese man jumped off the American ship to then describe to Wong Fei Hung the horrors of Chinese tossed off the ship into the ocean if they got sick, and the lack of food and pay when they arrive to the United Staes. Wong Fei Hung tries to negotiate for Chinese rights, but also have Chinese enemies who envy his popularity and the respect he receives. Excellent fight scenes throughout the movie and great story. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.at/products/260188094-once-upon-a-time-in-china-eureka-classics](https://www.desertcart.at/products/260188094-once-upon-a-time-in-china-eureka-classics) --- *Product available on Desertcart Austria* *Store origin: AT* *Last updated: 2026-04-23*
