Last Hero In China
''Last Hero in China'' is a 1993 Hong Kong martial arts film written and directed by Wong Jing. It is a derivative of the ''Once Upon a Time in China'' film series, and unlike other imitations, it can be considered a spin-off or parody to some extent. It was released after the first three films in the ''Once Upon a Time in China'' franchise. The film starred Jet Li as Chinese martial arts master and folk hero of Cantonese ethnicity, Wong Fei-hung and the action choreography was done by Yuen Woo-ping. However ''Last Hero in China'' differs greatly in tone from the ''Once Upon a Time in China'' films as it contains stronger elements of violence and broader, more slapstick, comedy. The film contains some Easter eggs, such as a Lifebuoy poster in the 19th century, a staff of the Monkey King, a guandao and Ne Zha's Universe Ring. Alternative titles * ''Claws of Steel'' (DVD release 22 Jan. 2003) * ''Deadly China Hero'' (DVD release 27 Jan. 2004) * ''Iron Rooster vs. Centipede'' (DVD ...
