    Jet Li, mainly because my first dip into martial arts growing up was the Once upon a time in China series. And to this day that is the series that to me epitomizes wuxia films.

    If I take out my bias, I'd have to go with Jackie Chan. Definitely the widest range and most successful of all the actors. It's pretty amazing to see his transformation over decades.

    That looks like the prequel to Black Mask. I agree though that Donnie is the "it" guy of Hong Kong martial arts movies. What's interesting is that he is the same age as Jet Li but looks so much more athletic now.

    If you think Jet Li can't act you should see The Warlords

    He also does a pretty job in Fearless

    While I am looking up trailers here is the one for the upcoming Andy Lau Shaolin Temple.

    He's gained some weight in that movie. Like a jumbo jet.

    Jet's younger days. A documentary made in the early 80s.

    Jet Li looked so old and out of shape in The Expendables. In the movie cedits he had squad of stunt doubles. Judging from how his action scenes were edited I don't think he can do the stunt work anymore.

    The list goes something like this:

    1) Jet Li
    2) Donnie Yen
    3) Jackie Chan


    For some reason I never liked Jackie Chan movies much. Even his old stuff from when he was young. Like that drunken master stuff he did decades ago.

    Jet Li's Wong Fei Hong roles are probably the best in the history of Hong Kong action movies. evar.

    They all share one thing in common though, they don't really translate much into Hollywood.

    I presume Takeshi. I really don't get the appeal of Takeshi, all he seems like is a pretty boy.
