Hero with Jet Li
I also thought Chinese Connection was one of Bruce Lee's greatest |

Re: Best Martial Art Movie
Drunken Master is probably the best I've seen. I've not seen that many though. Blade is quite a cool MA film IMO. Kickboxing vampires are all right by me.

Re: Best Martial Art Movie
What are we judging this based on? The movie quality? Martial arts realism? Choreography? Cool acrobatic stuff?
Stupidest movie ever was Angel Town with Olivier Gruner, but I liked some of the martial arts aspects of it, and I learned a good sweep from watching it over and over. I liked The Perfect Weapon with Jeff Speakman. Although I don't like him and think he's a total ass, I liked Seagal's early movies (let the flames begin). I preferred Brandon Lee's movies to Bruce's. Although, I liked any of Bruce Lee's movies o.k. too. I haven't seen many Asian films I really like except for their brainless goofiness to watch on a Saturday morning. They mostly tend to have flying ninjas and half-hour sequences of people doing Wing Chun poorly. |

Re: Best Martial Art Movie
I was thinking more about the quality of the martial art... as such EVERY Seagal movie is disqualified...

Re: Best Martial Art Movie
I just think he is rather unimpressive compared to the masters of the genre... both on technical an aesthetic point of view.

Re: Best Martial Art Movie
Yeah, isn't Seagal a genuine Aikido umpteenth Dan or something?
