The Legend of Drunken Master and the Once Upon a Time in China movies.

 

All preferably in their original formats. I really don't like it when movies are dumbed down for American audiences. The production companies will cut and paste a martial arts movie until it is hardly recognizable. Sorry for the rant but it is one of my biggest pet peeves.

Yeah, mostsolid, American martial arts movies are pretty good. But when I'm in the mood for a foreign martial arts movie, I enjoy seeing it as it was originally intended:)

Oh man, favorite MA Movie.

 

Uhm, tough one.

 

Gotta give kudos to Jackie Chan, his movies are hilarious.

 

But, S. Seagal in The Glimmer Man, and Marked for Death.

Drunken Master

 

Police Story 2

 

Fist Of Legend

 

Legend

 

Enter The Dragon

 

Way Of The Dragon

 

Master With Cracked Fingers

 

These are all great films which I would recommend to anyone if they like Martial Arts.

 

I like most martial arts actors: Snipes, Seagal, Van Damme.

 

But I also like the other martial arts actors: Jackie Chan, Jet Li, Samo Hung, Bruce Lee.

Lets see, I'm hardly an afficionado of MA films but here's what I've enjoyed.

 

-Perfect Weapon -it's kenpo of course I like it, even if the script and acting aren't nearly as good as the MA. :)

 

-Rush Hour -It's fun, it's funny, and JC is always a joy to watch.

 

-Enter The Dragon

 

-Bloodsport

 

-Various other Jackie Chan flicks [Legend of Drunken Master, Rumble in the Bronx, etc].

 

-Jet Li - all I've seen of him is The One and Romeo Must Die, but I enjoyed watching him.
