During the Japanese occupation of Korea in the 1930's, the leader of a small resistance movement attempts to get information to sympathizers in China.
I won't waste your time by describing the plot for this, the other reviewer already did this quite well. I will however give you my opinion of this movie. This movie is basically anti japanese propoganda. The japanese are portrayed as incredably evil b**tards who have respect for nothing, as well as having very poor martial arts skills (groups of japanese men get there asses kicked by single women on more than one occasion.) The fact that the japanese fighters lose almost every (if not every) fight in the movie kind of takes away the suspense. The plot is actually quite solid and perfect for a kung fu movie though. The problem lies in the fact that there's not much fighting. When there are fights some of the fighting is quite good, but other scenes are choreographed badly. One scene angela mao takes on six japanese in a church and kicks all their asses. The problem is they show her fighting them one by one when they're all supposed to be attacking at the same time. I gather this movie was incredably cheap considering how cheap some of the sets are. They use the same village set for when they are in korea and when they are in china without changing it at all. Some scenes are filmed at real locations though, and they look good. Overall the only real problem with the movie is it's slow moving and uninteresting plot. Since there are few fight scenes we have to rely on the plot for entertainment and, well, I wasn't entertained.

Lee Chung-Dong (Rhee) is a Tae Kwon Do expert and leader of the "Resurrection Movement of Koreans", a resistance group focusing on fighting back against the Japanese occupation of Korea in the 30's. It seems the Japanese are constantly harassing Lee, and he teams up with some other fighters, such as Miss Wai (as she's known in the English dub) (Mao), and the American (or French, depending on the version you're seeing) Mary (Winton). Mary's uncle, Father Lewis (Morgan) is a Catholic Priest who is kidnapped and tortured by the Japanese. Even though he disapproves of her Martial Arts, she trains at Lee's school. After his abduction, she becomes a nun, but then continues on with Lee's group to get revenge on the people who wronged her. The final fight features Lee forced to become the "Kickmaster" (one of this movie's alternate titles) we know he is, because his hands are in chains. Will Lee and his motley band get justice? Thunder Fist is just one of many titles this movie goes by, and the VHS under review today was released by New Pacific, a label not known for quality. The movie is transferred amazingly poorly, with horrendous picture and sound quality, and even jagged, unprofessional reel changes. It even repeats part of a reel to further drive home how badly done it was. Plus the movie is dubbed, and the music is louder than the dialogue in many cases. Most of the time the "music" is just pounding drums, which gets annoying after awhile. But there is one funky tune that should be singled out. ALL that being said, it's very tough to judge this movie on its true merits. The awful presentation hurts the movie, and makes it seem like your standard "chop-socky" outing. But we've been informed that a foreign DVD release fixes most of these problems, and some fans consider this movie, mainly known as When Taekwondo Strikes, as a minor classic. It may seem hard to believe if you suffer through the New Pacific VHS, but we can tell there's something here that's buried by the uncaring treatment of this particular release.
There are plenty of lengthy Martial Arts sequences, including some swordfighting. The movie is also somewhat hurt by its minimal locations, but fan favorites Angela Mao and Sammo Hung are strong, as is Rhee in his only film credit to date. It's also Anne Winton's only movie. Interesting legacy. It's fairly unusual at this time to see White people in a hard-core Martial Arts film like this, and Andre Morgan, who plays the Priest, was a frequent collaborator with Sammo, even appearing with him in Comeuppance Reviews favorite The Man From Hong Kong (1975). Adding to the flavor of this Golden Harvest production is some classic racism, featuring such dialogue as, and we quote, "these Japs can't be trusted!" We're guessing this movie wasn't widely distributed in Japan.
One of the more "memorable" aspects of this particular VHS release is the box art. These adonises are not in the movie and are clearly models. Just why these dudes were chosen as models remains unclear. Were they meant to draw in crowds of video store patrons? And the insanity/stupidity isn't only visual. Just read that "description". Whoever wrote that never saw the movie. It doesn't even begin to address the racial tensions of the Koreans, Japanese, Chinese, and Americans/French that simmer and boil over. "high finance and international smuggling"? "priceless treasures and bloodthirsty killers"? "turn me on"? What's this guy talking about? I guess in the 80's you could get away with this stuff. It was before the internet. No one's going to look up this movie, much less check into the accuracy of boxcover copy.
Martial Arts aficionados should check this movie out, but AVOID the New Pacific release.
