What happens

Karado: The Kung Fu Flash is a 1973 martial arts action drama film starring Cheung Nick, that has also been released under various other titles, including Karado: The Hong Kong Cat, Superior Youngster and Super Kung Fu Kid. Bolo Yeung (of Enter the Dragon fame) co-stars as the villainous Tiger, and James Nam has a supporting role as the hero's brother, Man Ho. Other industry stalwarts such as Yuen Biao and Mars, also appear in early roles, as thugs. As with other martial arts films of the era, criticism is aimed at the hilarious dubbing, and nonsense fights. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
