Snake Fist Fighter is a classic martial arts movie released in 1973 directed by Chen Chi-Hwa. It features Jackie Chan in a supporting role, with Siu-Tin Yuen and Hung-Lieh Chen as the lead actors. The plot revolves around a young student, Chien Fu (played by Siu-Tin Yuen), who sets out to learn the art of snake fist from a renowned master after his family is brutally murdered by a band of bandits.

Chien Fu's journey towards mastering the snake fist technique is not an easy one, and he must face many challenges along the way. He starts with nothing but the determination to avenge his family's death and a desire to become the best fighter in the land. At first, Chien Fu's training is hindered by the presence of a fellow student, who is jealous of his natural talent and attempts to sabotage his progress.

After proving himself worthy of the master's teachings, Chien Fu sets out to track down the men responsible for his family's death. Along the way, he meets a group of rebels who are fighting against an evil landlord and forms an unlikely alliance with them. Together, they set out to take down the landlord and his army of fighters.

As the story progresses, Chien Fu's skills as a fighter continue to improve, and he becomes more skilled in the use of his newfound snake fist technique. Meanwhile, the tension between the rebels and the landlord's army reaches a fever pitch, with several epic battles taking place.

One of the most memorable fight scenes in the movie involves Chien Fu taking on a group of bandits armed with various weapons, including swords and spears. The sequence is expertly choreographed, with Chien Fu using his snake fist technique to disarm and defeat each of his opponents.

Throughout the movie, Siu-Tin Yuen's performance as Chien Fu is outstanding. He expertly conveys the character's sense of determination and desire for revenge, and his acrobatic fighting style is a joy to watch. Meanwhile, Jackie Chan provides comic relief as a bumbling assistant to the master, but he also gets to showcase his fighting skills in a handful of scenes.

Overall, Snake Fist Fighter is a must-see for fans of classic kung fu movies. It's a well-crafted, exciting story with expertly choreographed fight scenes and a cast of talented actors. The movie remains a beloved classic of the genre and a testament to the enduring popularity of martial arts cinema.
