    A great old school kung fu movie.... A young Jackie Chan makes his mark by being differant and bring comedy to kung fu. the dubbing is really quite bad but that does add 2 the lots of laughs that is in this film

    Amazing. Hilarious for good and bad reasons but it still kicks so much ass. Jackie Chan shows why he is such a great leading man. He is funny and its a sight to see him do some of the shit he does. Not to mention it could be a good drinking movie.

    A great film about Drunken Boxing to study or just enjoy. 8 styles are used and it's mesmerizing to observe. It's a good movie, too.

    This movie was great considering it was made in the 70s and in Hong Kong. The music and the sound effects are a little cheesy, but it is definitely worth watching.

    One of the best kung-fu ever made. Back when everybody was trying to be the next Bruce Lee, Jackie was perfecting his irresistible blend of comedy action. I just wish I could figure out why when i'm drunk i just fall on my ass.

    This movie is like a total classic. It also showcases Jackie Chan's ability to eat Chinese food ravenously, crack open walnuts using his thumb and index finger, and jump around big kegs of water like a pro.

    Hilarious with some of the best fight scenes ever, but with bad over dub, so you get gems like, "Hey Dumb-head, go eat shit."

    NOW THIS WAS INTERESTING MOVIE. IT WAS VERY FUNNY! I LIKE THE FACT THAT HE IS HIS OWN PERSON AND USES HIS OWN STYLE OF FIGHTING . jACKIE HAS TAKING MARTIAL ARTS TO ANOTHER LEVEL AND MADE IT HIS OWN.

    Woo-ping Yuen and Jackie are a unstoppable team. This movie put Jackie on the map and is a very important piece of film history. I don't know what up with this poster they got up here because that pictures is taken from the legend of the drunken master filmed many years later, Any way check this one out if your a kung fu nut.(nn)

    I enjoyed this much more then the american version they came out with. Basic Kung Fu movie.....The fight scenes were choreographed really well, and despite Chinese humor it was pretty good. If you like martial arts movies this is one not to miss.

    What can I say about Jackie Chan's breakout role? It's got great action sequences, humor, and acting. 30 years after its release, it's still an awesome movie.

    had watched Drunken Master II before this one (admititly the 2nd one's better) and it is great old school fu w/ the added bonus of drunkenness. So far (Im sure there's an entire genera of of drunken fu full of vomit) Jackie Chan is a Master but he learned his 100 proof skills from his uncle a true Drunken Master (so much of one he gets the shakes when his blood alcohol level is low but when he gets some booze in him he's like Popeye w/ spinach)..as well a cool assassin named (rightfully so) Thunderleg is sent to kill Chan's father which is a major plus

    The story line was ok. But the fight scenes are worth watching. When he uses the feminine side of drunken boxing, that is the best. Also the first battle with him and his aunt in the film, that was great.

    Ok, what's with the random dubbing in this movie. Freaked me out a little. I actually saw the "sequal" first and loved it, but loved this one too, especially the punch and kick sound effects. They must have massacered many a bamboo shoot before films end.

    This is it! The movie that made Chan a star. It was revolutionary at the time. Even today, the film stands out a great deal.
