Great Karate Movies That Got little Fanfare

The Raid - Non-stop & breathtaking action.

Bonkers must see film.

WTF!!!! Are they taking hits for real?


Never even looked at it. I thought it was some Harrison Ford gone karate flick, now I know!! I said Dayum, just these three minutes got my face, back and body aching. They taking for real slams.

Ong bak with Tony jaa is pretty good, it looked like he was going to be a pretty big star back then, he never did make it that big in the west though...

His film where the village elephants are stolen is pretty fun too..... Thai problems I guess :S

He did a great job in Triple X, even though Yen had the bigger part. I saw an interview where he was pretty excited about his first cross over film. But yeah since then he hasn't got that lead that Yen or Jet Li got.

Not Karate but a movie called Chocolate starring JeeJa Yanin. It has some very good fight scenes.

I thought JeeJa Yanin was going to blow up after that movie, but outside of the fight scenes in Raging Phoenix her talents haven't really been utilized to their full potential. Much like Tony Jaa.

I will give it another view. I saw just a few scenes and thought it was some good action.
Good pick, thx!

Well, this wasn't a great fight movie, but no place else to put a Dolemite fight scene at!! Eddie Murphy did his impersonation of Rudy Ray Moore. His fight style? Well....
