Wong and Fong were essentially the same side of the coin—both were fiercely loyal to the Han race, both were masters of various forms of Kung Fu, both opposed the corrupt Manchu dynasty, and now both have been romanticized on the big screen and brought to life by Jet Li.
Wong is probably the more recognizable character of the two (and the one that’s had more films made about his exploits), but that doesn’t diminish the fact that Fong Sai Yuk is a great film with lots of to offer to Jet Li fans new and old alike.
Of course, a full out balls to the wall pace is always preferable to a film that crawls along, but neither is as effective as film that is well paced with peaks and valleys throughout it’s narrative.

 Stop Disney from butchering Hong Kong films!   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-18)
One example of this is the scene where Fong Sai Yuk tells his friends the false names which he wrote to get out of jail (the names which happen to be the real names of the people involved in making Fong Sai Yuk).
In the scene where Fong Sai Yuk's father goes to Tiger Lui to ask for permission to live with him, the part when Lee Sui Wan asks Ma Tsui Wan to ask Sai Yuk's "brother" to come to the wedding and Tsui Wan spitting her tea at Sui Wan when she hears that is cut.
The cut part is the final close up of Sing (where he asks Sai Yuk to forgive him) which is intercut with images of where Bo is. Also removed (or should I say, not included in the English dub) is the voice of Sai Yuk responding to Sing during Sai Yuk's walk to Bo's location.

HONG KONG—As fears mount over whether Hong Kong will be able to maintain the level of press freedom the territory enjoyed before its 1997 handover to China, former radio host Wong Yuk-man has said he was offered money for silence during his stint as host of a popular political talk show.
Wong quit his job as presenter of Hong Kong Commercial Radio’s program, “The Politically Concerned,” in May, citing worries about his personal safety after he was beaten by unidentified thugs, and his beef noodle restaurant in Kowloon City was vandalized with red paint.
Then someone offered to pay me,” said Wong, who had previously expressed doubts that he would return to Commercial Radio and fulfill his contract.

 dOc DVD Review: Fist of the Red Dragon (1993)
Nancy Reagan would be proud of this chopsocky "just say no" film which stars Donnie Yen and Yuk Wong as a couple of high-kicking fighters who, at first anyways, take opposite sides on a battle to outlaw opium in what appears to be turn-of-the-century Southern China.
In favor, or perhaps just indifferent, to opium is Yen as So Chai, also known as Beggar So, who butts heads (and feet) with Yuk Wong's anti-opium crusader Master Wong Fei Hun, who at one point tries to sweat the drug-induced toxins out of users via steam boxes.
The worth of a film like this essentially boils down to the merit of its fight scenes, and throughout his career Yuen Woo Ping has shown himself to be something of a master in that department.
