It's okay... I guess.......2007-07-23

I actually bought this because I went to highschool with one of the directors (I haven't kept in touch with them, but I thought I would check it out). The action scenes in most of the shorts are really great, the stuntwork is amazing, and the production values are suprisingly decent.
I think the main shortcoming is the short-film format. Without any sort of development of the characters, there's no real reason to be interested in the action.
Action without a story just sort of becomes monotonous. I'd be a lot more engaged in the action if I were playing Soul Caliber II. If you're really into fighting, then maybe it wouldn't be as boring to you as it was for me.

The Stunt People rock!.......2007-06-06

This is a compilation of 9 home videos from amateur directors. A couple are actually done on studios. All of them are worth a watch. The movies range anywhere from 1 to 22 minutes in length.

'Gung Ho' and 'Cradle of the Blind' are only a minute long but both are very funny. 'Kung Fu Legends Turbo' is like a video game and very well done. The rest are mini movies and all are pretty good. Special features include commentaries from the makers of the films and also outtakes. The outtakes for the Stunt People's movie 'Teamwork 2' is a must see! There are also a couple other cool special features.

Sound and picture quality are good.

Entertaining and refreshing indie short films.......2004-06-06

This is a collection of 5 or so shorts, produced by various Martial Artists, many of whom are very talented. Some of the skits are ingenious and show real potential, where others are lagging.

Fans of The Kwoon team will be pleased to see them here, as they really put on a show. The Sammo Hung lookalike is very talented and deserves a chance at Hollywood.

Stop reading this and buy it.

Highly Entertaining Action!.......2004-04-19

Many short films are showcased via film festivals and the internet. MOST of those shorts are dramatic in nature. The shorts in this DVD are a rarity in the short film world as they are heavy in action which are not as easy to produce as the dramatic ones.

With the increasing popularity of martial arts action movies, Everyone Is Kung-Fu Fighting is an exceptional DVD showcasing some of the best martial arts action that rival and/or surpass most of the studio released action movies.

A lot longer than the first volume, but not nearly as good.......2007-06-27

Everyone Is Kung-Fu Fighting was a great DVD release because it had 9 fun short movies from amateur directors. Everyone is Kung Fu Fighting Reloaded takes a different approach. There are 2 anime shorts, a 50 minute Jeff Centauri movie, and for some reason they only show 20 minutes of the Stunt People's movie 'Immortal'. My problem is that they just should have showed all of 'Immortal', or at least more of it, and then cut Jeff Centauri's movie. Centauri's 'Zombie Ninja' is 50 minutes of pure trash.

'The Video Game' stars 2 kids who put on virtual gaming helmets and fight it out in the video game world. This was very well made and though only 4 minutes long, it is my second favorite film on the disc.

'The Arbitrators' is set in the future and corporations negotiate business deals by fighting to the death. There is not much of a story, but I enjoyed watching the female star fight.

'Mahri's Revenge' is a movie Jeff Centauri should take a look at. Not very good, but 42 minutes shorter than 'Zombie Ninja', and it is at least mildly fun. The movie has a girl going to take revenge when she doesn't receive the dress she ordered over the internet. She goes to the seller's house and battles his three thug women. There is plenty of fighting, but the only thing worth watching is the cleavage and thongs.

'Chicks With Sticks' is a bore.

'HK' is by far the best movie on here. It is overloaded with action and has an amazing fight at the end.

Unlike volume 1, there are no directors commentaries, but still plenty of special features. There is no way I could go over them all, so I will just say there are a ton of special features. 'HK' is only 10 minutes long, but the making of is 37 minutes. There are bonus features littered all throughout the DVD. The Young Masters have a great movie on here that needs to be seen. Also look for the break dancer. I have never seen anything like this guy. And be sure to watch The Stunt People's 'Padman'. Too many special features to go over. I didn't even name a tenth of them.
