[ShiWarrior]

chocolate.

i have no idea why i like it so much, i just do.

Who's the main actor? Jackie Chan?

 

[Colonel_Klinck]

I like some of the old Wing Chun movies. A lot had the nice balance of Kung Fu and Chinese opera. I really enjoyed there two.
The Podical Son
Warriors Two

 

[ShiWarrior]

13 Assassins:

looks like a good one too

 

[Richeh]

Would echo most of the above. Also Flashpoint (2007) Donnie Yen film, thought that was very good.

Kung Fu Hustle is great fun

 

[ShiWarrior]

not strictly martial arts, but i watched "Kingsman" last night, fight scenes were pretty good, amazing film

 

[chroniclard]

Few favourites off the top of my head

Jackie Chan
Project A
Drunken Master 1 and 2 (with II it has to be the original Cantonese version as the US dub ruined the audio)
Dragons Forever
Police Story 1 and 2
Armour of God 1 and 2

Jet Li
Fist of Legend
Fearless
Unleashed
Romeo Must Die
Kiss of the Dragon

Tony Jaa (all three of these are almost the same film )
Ong Bak 1 and 2
The Protector

Donnie Yen
All his IP Man films
SPL Killzone
Kung Fu Jungle
Flash Point
Iron Monkey if you like a classic

Random stuff
As mentioned above Raid 1 and 2 are brutal but have some excellent fighting.
Headshot (dude out the Raid in it)

(99% of the plots and acting are guff in the above but not why you watch Martial Arts flicks )

 

[DN3000]

Yep in addition to the excellent choices above (Capodecina):

Jackie chan

Wheels on meals
Dragons forever
Twinkle lucky stars
Thunderbolt
The young master
Snake in the eagles shadow

Sammo hung / Yuen Biao

Enter the fat dragon
Warriors 2
The victim
Magnificent butcher
Encounters of a spooky kind
Prodigal son
Millionaires express
Eastern condors

 

[Psycho Sonny]

The Raid 1 and 2.

Jet Li - stuff
Bruce Lee
Steven Seagal - this guy in the real world would destroy an army. he's very underrated.
Chuck Norris

 

[ShiWarrior]

oooo Romeo Must Die, great film !! seen that a couple of times

 

[Illuminist]

Prodigal Son is so funny, especially if you find the dubbed english version, you will cry with laughter.

I watched Kung Fury the other day, again I cried with laughter literally, some good fight scenes but mostly it's just ridiculous and retro homage, but i still found it amazing.

I also recommend most of those above as somehow I have seen nearly all of them somehow without being a kungfu film watcher in general.

You should watch the documentary about stephen seagull , on how he is a massive liar and his skills were actually extremely poor

Lol hes trained top UFC fighters and been in their corners. I'm talking several champions here too. Machida, Silva, etc.

 

[ShiWarrior]

ordered the raid

wasn't that just a publicity stunt and they took the **** out of him later.

 

[Illuminist]

See this makes more sense, as the documentary was explaining that he lied about working with navy seals and the like and he would make up crazy stories about his training but infact got his ass kicked by jackie chan, or jean cluade van damme or something... i forget, but the main take away was he is a piece of **** and a liar

 

[chroniclard]

Steven seagal is a massive douche but a few of his earlier flicks are sort of ok, in a fighting way.

Nico, Out for justice , marked for death, under siege, above the law....after that they are mostly gash when he got fat.

All i remember about under siege is Elrika Eleneineneieak coming out the cake naked........

Hmm think I have about 100 martial arts DVDs in the loft, might dig them out. (assuming I didnt lob them....)
