VHS Movie Reviews of Kung Fu [VHS]

Movie Review: GREAT MOVIE
Summary: 5 Stars

This is a great movie,,,,, wish it was longer... first seen it when I started karate lessions and the instructor showed it after class. I have beed a David Carradine fan ever since.

Movie Review: Fabulous Kung Fu
Summary: 5 Stars

This movie and the DVD series of Seasons one, two and three, from the original T.V. show are a Must See. The lessons learned from them are integrating themselves into my life and creating permanent, positive changes. I heartily recommend everyone watch them, even if you saw the series 30 years ago. The lessons in life, if taken, will positively change your life forever. By the way, David Carradine is fantastic. No one could ever match his performance in such a role.

Movie Review: [Three and a half stars out of five] Best effort of all the Kung Fu movies. Radames Pera once played on Hawai'i Five-0!
Summary: 3 Stars

Pear and half brother Keith Carradine both
played young Caine in here. Followed by
Kung Fu: The Movie (1986 **.5 out of four
stars), w/ Mako and Brandon Lee. Interesting
in that his story about half American/ half
Chinese Shaolin Monk, who escapes Royal China
after killing Royal Newphew, who's guard's
killed his Kung Fu teacher, another ex-Hawai'i
Five-0 vet, Keye Luke, was first offered to
Lee's late father, Bruce! But ABC wanted more
American looking martial arts guy. Carradine,
who is one quarter Chinese got call but knew
nothing about martial arts until taking lessons
during filming on this from Sefu Kam Yuen, who
helped Carradine with Tai Chi videos later!
Dave also did eulogy when young Brandon was
killed on set of Actioner-Phantasy 'The Raven',
in '93...

Movie Review: kung fu:the legend begins
Summary: 4 Stars

this is the one that you see in commercials and in other movies and in clips on the show of the same name.a very influential movie!theres a small kid who goes into kung fu training with an old blind man.then he gets big and goes to america after killing his masters killer.he gets a job in the railroad and runs into problem after problem the whole movie long!kids like it.its better than the karate kid movies and a lot of the newer jackie chan movies although jackie has better too.it beats out anything by chuck norris or van damme or segal.bruce lee does better.you can actualy learn a lot of the basic things about kung fu by listening to the old man talk.the star is david carridine.he does quite well in his role.i liked death race 2000,and the kill bill set better but liked this one better than cannonball.

Movie Review: Stands the test of time
Summary: 5 Stars

Excellent series still stands up for modern viewing. Still a refreshing take on the "Western" as a concept with some wonderful anti-racism statements. Only one clunker episode in the set: "The Tide," which seems more like a Bonanza script than anything else. High-calibre scripts and direction.

Summary of Kung Fu [VHS]

Snicker if you will, but Kung Fu was one of the most influential TV series of the 1970s, one that managed to inject a note of both spirituality and Eastern religion into the standard Western formula and make it seem new. This was the pilot, an intriguing and scene-setting TV movie in which David Carradine starred as the mysterious Caine--half-white, half-Chinese, reared in a Shaolin monastery in China by blind master Po (Keye Luke), then exiled to America, on the run for killing the men who killed his master. The pilot mixes flashbacks to Caine's youth with a story set in the Old West of Caine battling intolerance as he begins the search for his father. --Marshall Fine
