confusing story and lackluster action

Lo Lieh dies in the first twenty minutes and with him the story as everything after is a ball of confusion. I can't blame any of it on poor translation of the dialog. Carter Wong steps up as the lead and this results in him raping his sister. He is trying to prove to the bad guys that he doesn't know her. The results? There were no results, he just does that and the whole act has no point. It seems to be layer after layer of people who are not what they seem to be and absolutely none of it makes sense after final revelations. The fights are at best average and repetitious and at worst nonsense with the banging cymbals noise weapons. Chan Wai-Lau due to his small size often plays an elderly female and does not fail to deliver a decent staff fighting sequence. That brief part was the martial arts high point of this entire movie. Kam Kong plays a Ming general and is killed off with hardly a fight at all. Cliff Lok briefly displays his acrobatic martial arts in one sequence. That is all. I cannot recommend this movie to anyone other than hard-core completist types like myself and I rate it below average.
