I finally have some time to watch some movies and was wondering if anyone saw a movie worth watching?

Of course, anything with Bruce Lee. Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, Hero, House of the Flying Daggers, Ip Man are all good entries.

I love all the Ipman movies. Man of Tai Chi was decent also

I think most Jackie Chan movies are worth watching. Yuen Biao is also great.

Ong-Bak is a pretty brutal movie if you like martial arts, as well.

Jet Li stuff is great, too. Fists of Legend and Black Mask come to mind. I don't remember much of the story, but it's really about the fight scenes, anyway. :happy:

Almost found this http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0821470/?ref_=fn_al_tt_1 by accident & totally loved it. Anybody watched High Kick Girl?

You almost found it? What does that even mean? :unsure:

On another note I tend to watch movies for the plot (ridiculous I know) and I really haven't found any Martial Arts movies that really stimulate what remaining brain cells I have left. Maybe that's just me.

Clearly you have no taste.

You will maybe notice that some say that Hero is a better film but it's not as emotionally involving which forgive me in my ignorance, is why I watch movies.

Hmm I might check it out. Looks interesting.

Then again I take any recommendation of yours with a grain of salt since your taste in movies is about as good as a teenage girl who worships Twilight.

Yes,yes it is.

If you want; as some sort of mental experiment which is obviously the best kind,we could each post what is one of our favorite movies and then taking that into consideration the other person could recommend something else they think they'd also like.

Then we could both laugh at how weird and stupid we think the other person is.

And good times were had by all.:)

I'm going to have to go with Mulan.

Actually in retrospect if you stretch the definition a little bit you could kind of maybe somewhat call that a martial arts movie.

I wasn't limiting it to martial arts movies but I guess it doesn't matter because whatever you wrote I was going to say "Twilight".

Just kidding but I'm going to have to think about that as I've never seen the movie as I'm..you know ..like a grownup.


More or less.
