It was supposed to star Bruce Lee (or so they say. I can't really imagine him agreeing to star in this.) After Lee's death, they went with arguably the #2 martial arts star, jimmy Wang Yu. Unfortunately, as the joke goes, he had both arms in this movie. Anyway, he's from Hong Kong Special Branch. He flies into Australia, beatus up Sammo Hung and Bolo Yeung, and eventually beats up George Lazenby, possibly the stupidest actor ever.
Not too bad, but Jimmy ain't no Bruce, that's for sure. He has no chemistry with his love interest, and his kung fu is, well, they should have let Sammo star if they wanted good kung fu.
Entertaining, but not great. They don't really have hang gliding in movies any more. Too bad.
