This was one of the better Taiwanese martial arts/comedies when it came out in 1986, and it still stands up today. IMO, Eugene Thomas was one of the all-time best Westerners in Asian action films; he has been vastly underrated.
*Note: The two guys (male lead in blue and the guy w/the glasses) showing off 'shapes' to each other, I seem to remember them as TV variety show hosts in Taiwan. This movie was the only time I remember them performing anything remotely MA-related.
The Book Of Heroes clip was awesome and quite hilarious. Nice find.
