Operation Scorpio: A Martial Arts Classic by David Lai
Operation Scorpio (also known as The Scorpion King) is a 1992 Hong Kong martial arts film directed by David Lai, and starring Chin Kar-lok, Lau Kar-leung and Kim Won-jin. The film was released on 12 November 1992 and received positive reviews from critics and fans alike.
The film follows the story of Yuk Su (Chin Kar-lok), a budding comic book artist who finds himself living out the fantasies of his alternate world when he saves a young girl from an illegal prostitution racket. With the help of his father's friend, Master Lo (Lau Kar-leung), a kung fu expert, Yuk Su learns martial arts from two masters of opposing styles: Lo's traditional Shaolin style and Sonny Wang's (Kim Won-jin) modern Taekwondo style. Yuk Su then combines them to take on Wang, who is the local gangster's son and a master of the deadly Scorpion Style, a kung fu that resembles a scorpion.
Operation Scorpio is a showcase of spectacular martial arts action, featuring some of the best fight scenes ever filmed. Kim Won-jin, a real-life Taekwondo champion, displays his jaw-dropping skills and flexibility in his role as the villain. Chin Kar-lok, a veteran stuntman and action choreographer, also impresses with his agility and charisma as the hero. Lau Kar-leung, a legendary kung fu director and actor, adds his experience and wisdom to the film as the mentor figure.
