There are several well-staged fights, but none with the imaginative choreography, ferocious energy, and dazzling prop work found in the first two films.

The third installment in Hark's Wong Fei-Hong franchise, sees Hung (Jet Li) and his sidekick Chung arriving in China just in time for the Empress-sponsored Lion Dance kung fu invitational. But Wong has other concerns to deal with--including winning back his secret love Yee from Tumanovsky, an evil Russian diplomat/spy who plans to assassinate the president! As if that isn't enough, he is to face his fearsome rival Thunder Foot in the competition. Li's formidable martial arts and acrobatic skills blend with a healthy dose of humor to create a worthy installment to this popular series. [More]

Reviews for Once Upon a Time in China 3
This is the weakest entry in the first three films of the series, with a rambling story line, fight scenes that are not staged as well as those in the first two films, and poor picture quality.
This might be a good enough introduction, but hardly the best of the lot.
In terms of aesthetics, this is the best looking of the first three Once Upon a Time in China films.
