    Yeah I didnt even notice the bad language. I have only seen it subtitled though. I didnt expect much in the way of story. I literally just saw it for the actions. In that respect it was awesome. I like the main guy in it. Silat champion!

    I thought it was a good flick but not the best martial arts movie.

    I started watching Tai Chi Fist last night looks to be and older flick...its pretty damn good so far.

    -I loved Red Cliff.
    -IP Man has a part 3.
    -I enjoyed all of Donnie Yen movies. Maybe because of my crush:eek::grin:. Legend of the Fist couldve been better though. Flash Point was a bit different since I'm not used to guns associated with kung fu movies, but I still liked it.
    -Shaolin
    -I didn't care too much about Bodyguards and Assasins, but my brothers loved it.
    -The Warriors Way.
    - The Warring States.
    - Little big soldier
    - Wing Chun

    Ive seen Raid Redemption..I liked it. Red Cliff was real good watched it last night. Oldboy was a bit slow so I didnt get through it. I tend to like the more action kung fu movies that take place well..I dont know when they take place I guess they vary but its way before our time. I especially like the movies with the crazy kung fu flipping around drunken style old man with the greay beard you killed my master or father so im going to train and get revenge ..lol. Im watching Goemon now ..so far so good.

    Maybe because you didn't read a single page in this thread? (To be fair, it is a huge thread... of 3 pages, but then again, it mentions that movie at least once on each page.)

    This one is only 33 years old, but it is still one of the best.

    If you have not seen Dragon Fist, watch it! One of the rare Jackie Chan movies where he does not clown. At all. He is just a major bada$$ in this.

    and yes I know this clip is in German, but it really doesn't matter, does it? :grin:

    I don't think Old Boy is a kung fu movie.... More like Perversion love story/revenge...
