"The Black Mask" is a good Jet Li movie.





But you should really go to the source of ALL Martial Arts movies. You probably think I'm going to say Bruce Lee, and he was phenominal, but the fella I have in mind is, the one, the only,


Sonny Chiba. If you saw "Kill Bill, Part 2", Sonny Chiba was the swordsmith who swore a blood oath to never make another sword until Kiddo showed up and mentioned Bill's name. In the 60s and 70s, Chiba made a series of some of the grittiest Martial Arts movies ever filmed, "the Streetfighter" series, which include, "The Streetfighter", the Return of the Streetfighter" and "The Streetfighter's Last Revenge". Tarantino's character in "True Romance", the one played by Christian Slater, is going on and on at the beginning of THAT movie about Chiba.


"The Streetfighter" movies are Chinese productions, badly dubbed, but somehow fascinating nonetheless, maybe because the stunts are so godawful dangerous and they do the scene anyway, one take, winner takes all. I dont even want to think how many of the stunt fighters got killed or badly injured in some of the fights, (while other "action fights" are so obviously choreographed as to be completely distracting). All the icons (and, at this point, cliches, except THESE are where the cliches got their START) of the Oriental gangs. These movies are bloody, but I promise you, the series will make you look at Jet Li and Jackie Chan in a whole new light.
