Synopsis: A rich man's son (Yuen Biao) believes himself to be the best kung fu fighter in Canton. Unfortunately, his father, anxious for his son's safety, bribes all his opponents to lose. After a humiliating defeat at the hands of an actor in a traveling theatre company, the son resolves to find a better teacher. Furious kung fu battles and slapstick comedy.

Reviews: KFC | Hong Kong Digital | IMDb (external reviews)

Quote:
The Prodigal Son is arguably the best film Sammo Hung has directed. It has been praised by aficionados for its detail in portraying the Wing Chun style of kung fu which Sammo had taken great interest in. In truth, the film lives up to its reputation and stands the test of time as an entertaining action film and homage to the conventions of chop-socky films that have gone before. -- Mark Pollard
