* When Foon is trying to become Master Yen's apprentice, and Yen tries to discourage him by saying "What's the use of being a Kung Fu expert? Can't make a living.". At this point, Yen has just defeated a capable, renowned warrior, but at the end of the day he's on the street starving in the pouring rain and getting spat upon by prostitutes. He has a set of impressive skills that probably took a lifetime to master, but his abilities seem increasingly obsolete in the society he is living in. It makes his eventual turn towards villainy all the more tragic. He wasn't really a bad man, which you can see when he practically begs Foon not to desert him, but he considers himself backed into a corner such that working with the gangsters to build his own temple and restore his status is his only respectable option.

* The abuse many Chinese go through in the film due to the Western Colonizers engulfing their way of way. Some are desperate enough to try leave and go to America for a new start, but are swindled, left to die if ill, and enslaved and treated like cattle upon arrival and are targeted for death if they try to return to China. Many Chinese women are in turn enslaved and sold in a sex trafficking ring by ruthless pirates to serve their new Western buyers.
