Favourite Martial Arts Film

[Mark TKO]

I love films like Hero and Crouching Tiger, what other great films are out there that are in that league.

yeah I bet you love doing the Crouching Tiger with your 'friends' don't you

[Mark TKO]

Enter the Dragon, Bloodsport and I thought Bruce Lee Story was quite good


First one I ever watched was Breaker Breaker with Chuck Norris and I thought that was awesome. Was only about 8 though so bet its dated very very badly.....

May check it out now as it's been 30 years

If Hero with Jet Li counts as a Martial Arts film that's the one.

The heck with limiting it to martial arts films. Hero is one of the best movies I've seen in the last decade.

That film looks brilliant, I have to see that, it is a remake of Monkey that use to come on TV but a lot better.

Musta be 'Karate Kid' then. If Hilary Swank spreads those legs then she's usually pissed,lol.

Kung Fu Hustle

Watched Karate Kid when I was a kid. Made me feel that I can beat up anybody using the techniques that I saw in that movie and I'm not pertaining to that wax on / wax off thing.

Kung Fu Hustle is hilarious.

I finally got round to seeing the remake of the Karate Kid, and was impressed to see it was a story all about how Jaden Smith's life got filipped turned upside down. You see, he was chillin' out maxin' relaxin' all cool and all shootin some b-ball outside of school, When a couple of guys,Who were up to no good, Startin making trouble in his neighborhood he got in one little fight and his mom got scared She said 'You're going to learn Kung-Fu, from that Maintenance man downstairs'

I've been watching few almost unknown Thai martial arts films, not that I watch these stuffs anymore but just to please my partner who really enjoys watching 'em, and except for their very cheap looking production and scenes, I was really surprised how good their martial arts were, both the choreography and the artists. They are almost at par with the best. And there's this teenage girl in a movie titled 'Chocolate' who's as good as some of her male counterparts. Check 'em out if you're a serious martial arts film enthusiast.

Definitely goes to Ip Man. It was a damn awesome experience to watch it. Not really digging the sequel though.
