Drunken Master, featuring Jackie Chan.

Chinese with dubbed English, some profanity, regurgitation,

Action-packed, neatly-choreographed kung-fu. The Drunken Master
teaches Jackie Chan his drunken style, featuring several drunken
katas. The strength of the style involves appearing to be vulnerable.

From david fred:

This is the first of Chan's two Drunken Master films.  The first film
is good and quite funny, as noted, but it was done early in his career
and suffers from a fairly low budget and comparatively primitive
camera and stunt work.  I would highly recommend Drunken Master II,
especially if you liked the first one.  However, for those of you not
familiar with Jackie Chan films you need to be ready to embrace the
over-the-top action sequences and sometimes cheesy plots.

Other JC picks are: "Project A" (both parts I and II) and "Armour of
God."  The famous "Harold Lloyd on steroids" clock tower stunt occurs
in the first Project A.

The book "Sex and Zen & A Bullet in the Head" by Stefan Hammond and
Mike Wilkins (Fireside, 1996) is an excellent English-language
resource for those interested in HK film.
