 |
|
Any of you know of any Good karate films? I know that's a broad subject so let's narrow it down. I like the 7 Samurai, I'm also anxious to see Shanghai Knights (I know - not a true MA flic but funny). Two different spectrums here. I don't really care for the KungFu theatre styl movies.
I was on this web site the other day (www.kungfucinema.com) that has a movie called "Musa". It's a Korean film with English subtitles - Looks awsome but is a region 3 dvd wich means I can't watch it on my dvd player. Any GOOD films I should watch for?

I really like the movie " Fist of legend" it is a remake of Bruce Lee's "Fist of fury" In the remake, Jet Li plays Bruce Lee's role. there are great fight scenes, as well as a bit of history since the story line involves Japan's occupation of China.
Check it out.
I also really enjoyed Croutching Tiger, Hidden Dragon.
Good hunting |

There's always the three Karate Kid ones  , but apart from that Ican't think of any Karate specific films. However i did watch the Shoalin Wheel of Life video the other night which was very impressive, other than that i'd also go for 'crouching tiger, hidden dragon'

Perfect Weapon is Kenpo... I guess that's technically a Karate movie.
