* BladeOnAStick: In the opening scene, a ninja tries to ambush Teddy from behind, only for Teddy to pull out a halberd from out of nowhere and spike that ninja from behind, in an OffhandBackhand manner. Justified since that was an imagination scene from a story Teddy is telling some teenagers.

Master Teddy Yue (Anthony) used to be a government agent and martial arts expert, but after his wife's death, he retired from a life of ass-kicking to raise his children. Decades later, Teddy's old enemy, Rocco (Michael), who was reduced to a cripple thanks to Teddy, is back for revenge, and also seeks a hidden microfilm from Teddy containing important information, which he is perfectly willing to have Teddy killed to retrieve by force. Thankfully, both of Teddy's children, the adult Nicky and teenage Natalie, inherits their dad's skills in ass-kicking, and have to save their old man at all costs.
----
!!Tropes of Fury:
* AlmostOutOfOxygen: Rocco, in an effort to force Teddy's children to hand over their father's microfilm, have Teddy locked in a decompression chamber draining of oxygen, and the film's climax is a RaceAgainstTheClock when Natalie and Nicky have to fight their way through Rocco's henchmen while trying to find and save their father. [[spoiler: They made it, just barely]].
* BadassFamily: Terry is a former martial artist and all-round badass fighter, and both his children inherits his skills in ass-kicking.
* BaldOfEvil: Rocco doesn't have a single strand of hair on his head.
* BladeOnAStick: In the opening scene, a ninja tries to ambush Teddy from behind, only for Teddy to pull out a halberd from out of nowhere and spike that ninja from behind, in an OffhandBackhand manner. Justified since that was an imagination scene from a story Teddy is telling some teenagers.
* CoolOldGuy: Uncle Teddy and Uncle Chiu, who can kick all sorts of ass when push comes to shove. They just chose not to, since they're retired and no longer have any interests in going back to the world of martial arts.
* CoversAlwaysLie:
** The [[https://www.amazon.com/House-Of-Fury-DVD/dp/B001R65FII international DVD cover]] is a serious offender, depicting Nicky and Natalie in two flashy kung-fu outfits they were never seen wearing during the film.
** The above poster is no better, since [[CoordinatedClothes the red matching family uniforms]] depicted doesn't show up at any point in the film.
* EvenEvilHasLovedOnes: Rocco, despite being the villain of the story who kidnaps Teddy and nearly gets Teddy killed, turns out to have a young son, Nelson, that he genuinely cares about. [[spoiler: It's thanks to Nelson's intervention right at the end of the film, where Nicky and Natalie ultimately decides to spare Rocco despite what he had done, leaving Rocco to the police]].
* EvilCripple: Rocco, the wheelchair-bound BigBad of the film, thanks to being defeated by Teddy prior to the events of the film, and is out for revenge.
* FakeOutOpening: The film's epic ActionPrologue have Teddy being surrounded by ninjas, which he effortlessly defeats in under a minute... before suddenly ending his IndulgentFantasySegue revealing the first five minutes of the film to be a story he's narrating to his daughter's classmates while waiting to pick her from school.
* GratuitousNinja: Shows up in the opening sequence. Teddy defeats ten of them single-handedly, but then it turns out to be part of a story he's telling to a few of Natalie's classmates.
* ImagineSpot: Twice, the opening scene when Teddy talks about how he defeats a group of ninjas, and then in a nightmare when Natalie sees her father Teddy getting executed.
* ParentsInDistress: Teddy, the retired martial artist and warrior who had since changed his occupation to being a chiropractor, but ends up having his old enemies kidnapping him early in the film. Necessitating his children, adult Nicky and teenage Natalie, to go on a rescue mission to save their old man.
* PrettyLittleHeadshots: During a NightmareSequence when Natalie sees her father being shot through the temple. Despite the close range that should've blown half of the victim's head off, all that results in is a pencil-thick squib going off. Justified, that was only a nightmare.
* RetiredBadass: Uncle Teddy and Uncle Chiu, a pair former martial artists who used to kick all sorts of asses in their youths.
* TruthSerums: Rocco had his minions injects these into the captured Teddy, in an attempt to force him to reveal the microfilm he had hidden containing covert information they're after.
* UnreliableNarrator: Teddy during the fake-out prologue; he boasts that he single-handedly fought and killed ''dozens and dozens'' of ninjas in a single night, but a moment later one of his daughter's classmates points out that she's been counting and Teddy actually defeated ten ninjas.
* WolverineClaws: Rocco's preferred weapon for sneak attacks is a pair of bladed gloves. He had four claws instead of three, however.
