The three students don't come off with any individual personality. Unfortunately, Lo Mar is at the director's helm and that means that the camera angles are not very good. The choreography is unusual at times but that doesn't mean it always works. The fights in this film start out weak but get much better as the film progresses. It's interesting to see him on camera before he became one of the biggest fight choreographers of the past ten years. This is another film featuring Tony Leung Siu Hung, here as the beaten master. Since that seems to be the bulk of the film that's what I'll comment on.

The rest of the movie is fight scenes and training scenes. Their master hides in an abandoned temple drinking.

The students go their separate ways to find a kung fu teacher who can teach them a style that will defeat the crazy master. He beats up a master and his three students who he adopted as orphans. A strange black garbed kung fu master wanders around beating up kung fu teachers, 'correcting' their bad kung fu. Well low and behold, here's one from the Shaw studios! Directed by third tier director Lo Mar and cast with minor actors from the Shaw stable. These films sometimes made up for their short comings by having really exaggerated characters and lots of action. And the fights were not so well rehearsed.

Then there were the films from the smaller studios that might have some good martial artists/actors (who sometimes lacked movie star looks) but didn't have the sets and ended up doing a lot of fight scenes in a field somewhere. In the world of kung-fu films there were the top budgeted ones (usually from the Shaw studios) with big sets and well rehearsed stars who looked good, could act and do some remarkable fight scenes.
