Magnificent Bodyguards is a 1978 Hong Kong martial arts film directed and produced by Lo Wei. The film stars Jackie Chan, James Tien, Leung Siu-lung, and Wang Ping. Chan, along with Luk Chuen also worked as stunt coordinators. This film was well received in Hong Kong, but Chan himself doesn't like it. He puts it down to Lo Wei not giving him any creative freedom. This was the first film in Hong Kong to be filmed using 3-D technology, and it features music from Star Wars.
