When kung-fu film fans see the title Five Superfighters, they know they're going to see one of director John Lo Mar's best flat-out, fight-filled, non-stop minimal martial arts masterpieces. The plot is thrilling simplicity: an old medicine seller and his three apprentices learn Chinese, crane, pole, and drunken fighting to defeat an arrogant bully. Arguably the director's best-loved movie, there's no argument about just how exciting and fun this super-fight film is.
