Synopsis

A heroic family is double-crossed on the battlefield. Only two brothers survive the massacre. One returns home a traumatized shell—the other seeks refuge in a monastery, where he develops an invincible fighting technique. But this life of spirituality does little to tame his desire for vengeance.

Editorial

The 8 Diagram Pole Fighter may have arrived at the midpoint of Lau Kar-leung’s career, but it plays like a late-period reckoning with a genre he helped create. Possessing some of the action maestro’s finest set pieces, and steeped in spiritual exhaustion, this is kung fu’s answer to The Searchers.
