THE BEST OF SHAOLIN KUNG FU sounds like a documentary, but it’s more like a highlight reel of Joseph Kuo films right down to the use of Carter Wong as a villain, the appearance of Shaolin bronze men and an epic series of challenges within Shaolin for the star Cliff Lok to overcome. Lok has always seemed like one of those reliable, yet unremarkable kung fu stars who, like Jimmy Wang Yu, peaked in the early ’70s and was ultimately overshadowed by bigger and better talent. But within this film, it becomes clear that all he needed was the proper choreography to shine as bright as any kung fu star. And appropriately enough, the man to do it was his mentor, director and choreographer Chan Siu-pang
