Martial Arts Movies

Anyone else like them? I'm not talking about movies where Chinese characters fly through the sky like fairies and float in the air like sprites but movies where their is SOME semblance of realism. Movies like Enter the Dragon or any others with Bruce Lee.

I just saw one of the BEST I've seen in a very long time! (Bought the DVD.)

The Raid Redemption.

I need to see that... I like realistic ones, but also goofy ones like Kung Fu Hustle. That's greatness.

Re: Martial Arts Movies

I enjoy watching Chuck Norris as Walker Ranger. We watch videos of it on Youtube. There was a couple of seasons of it that were amazing. Chuck "accepted Christ" at that time in his life and many of the Ranger TV shows talked about people coming to Jesus. Never saw a TV show get as up front about Christ as that one.

Re: Martial Arts Movies

Well...being a martial artist myself...of course I like martial arts movies.....I have to admit, however, that I do like the old movies where there mouths never match the sound...I like all the Bruce Lee flicks, and i am a big fan of Jet Li..

I loved those two movies! I actually started watching them by accident one day and was hooked 10 minutes into the first one. I also loved the final fight scene at the end of the 2nd movie with the British boxer.

Re: Martial Arts Movies

What I liked about Ip Man was his humility and his calm demeanor.....he went out of his way to avoid conflict.

Re: Martial Arts Movies

We didn't need cable when I was a kid.

The UHF channel (channel 20 in DC) would play Kung Fu and Planet of the Apes movies every weekend!

"Fists of Fury" is my favorite Bruce Lee movie.

However, "The Shaolin Kids" is my favorite Kung Fu movie!
