Synopsis
The Master (1992) is a Hong Kong martial arts film you can watch online on iFILM, starring Jet Li. A young kung fu fighter lands in Los Angeles and walks straight into a turf war.
Uncle Tak runs a small martial arts school in the city and treats patients with traditional Chinese medicine on the side. His former pupil Johnny wants to corner every kung fu school in America and is ready to kill the old man to get there. When Tak vanishes, his best student Jet flies in from China. Strange city, a gang on his tail, and only his fists to settle the argument.
Tsui Hark directs — one of the defining names of the Hong Kong New Wave — and he catches Jet Li at his physical peak. The plot is really just connective tissue between fights; the acrobatics, speed and choreography are the whole point. For fans of early Jet Li, it's essential. Stream The Master online on iFILM.
