Luckily he has some bodyguards (yep, those ones in the title) helping him, and mucho fighting ensues. Essentially, the plot is about some doctor travelling the country and the dastardly Manchus trying to kill him.
On the plus side: the old kung fu film is actually pretty interesting, or maybe they just stole every action scene from it. From then on in, we're thrown into the badly-dubbed world of old-film-meets-new, and neither of them ever remotely end up making much sense. "Jet Le" – a non actor who didn't star in anything else and doesn't even look like Li – reprises Li's role from that film, particularly in the first scene, a ludicrously poor re-staging of the final fight from the martial arts classic. It seems the tradition was alive and well in the late '90s, at least judging by this, a pseudo-follow up to the Jet Li classic, FIST OF LEGEND. If you thought Godfrey Ho and his studio were the only people to make cut-and-paste kung fu films, you'd be mistaken.
