Summary of The Magnificent Butcher

This classic martial arts comedy stars the charming and disarming master of bumbling--the corpulent Sammo Hung. In this Yuen Woo-Ping film, he plays a lovable, klutzy butcher who studies diligently under legendary kung fu master Wong Fei-Hong (Kwan Tak-Hing), but he can't quite seem to get his moves together. However, when dastardly crooks nab his sister-in-law, the young protégé throws his weight behind saving her.
