The sheriff, er, governor orders his men to bring in anyone who could be the Monkey, leading to the arrest of Wong Kei Ying and his ten-year old son, Wong Fei Hung.

Governor Chang holds Wong Kei Ying's son captive, and in order to see him safely returned, Wong Kei must find and destroy the Iron Monkey.
While this gets the ball rolling and hits all the bases in short order, it cheapens the film, and it is probably the sentiment of most intelligent viewers that a film should have more than just a collage of fight sequences.

There's not a lot of plot to this film: Chan plays a troublesome son, Wong Fei-Hong, who is sent away to be tutored by Su Hua-Chi (Siu Tien Yuen) in the art of drunken boxing.
Wong Fei Hong (Chan), a master of "drunken boxing" (a form of martial arts where one finds the right balance between intoxication and sobriety to fight in a manner that completely obfuscates the opponents' moves) gets involved and must restore the stolen treasure to its rightful place.
Wong Fei Hong not only fights the villains using mind-boggling martial arts, but he also outlines every move he throws in the ring ("recovering from a hangover", "down the hatch", etc.).
