One of my favourite movie genres. Those Chinese made balls-to-the-wall action movies when Hollywood didn't know to shoot a proper fight scene.

 

Who's your favourite artists, movie, fight?

 

Check this insane fight between Lau Kar Leung and his brother Lau Kar Wing.

and

 

Jackie chan in drunken master (i think this is the scene, but it may be the fight earlier on in the film when he gets a beating is a work of art - the footwork is incredible - Hwang Jang Lee)

I still enjoy Legend of the Drunken Master (1994) as one of my favorite kung fu movies.

 

Simply because of the nice humoristic approach of the film, and the end fighting scene where Jackie Chan fights his IRL mentor or bodyguard, cant remember which (KEN LO) who is actually something around 50 years old at the time of recording.

 

Its a great movie all in all :D

 

 

 

I also enjoy the Shaoilin movies with Jet Li, the first two are the best

I wouldn't miss one as a child, but not anymore.

 

I wouldn't miss as a child any of these either, but now i like only the ones with a lot mythology, cults, supernatural and good feeling. As well as Japanese dramas (Kurosawa etc).

I still remember one scene from a very old one where from few palm trees 2-3 kung-fu nintzas were turning up flying to attack. Nice stuff. Like in the very good Tiger and Dragon or the tragic Curse of the Dragon Flower.

 

Not Jackie Chan or Bruce Lee or "western spaghetti" style anymore.

 

The last one i saw it was a year ago. Totally recommended.
