Masterful kung-fu, hilarious slapstick: a Jackie Chan beater, 20 January 1999
10/10
Author: niz from Melbourne, Australia

Prodigal Son takes the traditional historical setting and standard kung-fu revenge story and creates an amazing comic masterpiece. If you enjoy Jackie Chan, don't miss this. Even the dubbed version I saw (I usually hate dubbing) worked very well. The final fight is one of the greatest in celluloid history.
