@@jdsheleg8332 you dont seem to know that there are quite a bit of cultural problems between japan and china and thats why it is worth mentioning. there are chinese descendand groups in japan which have a separate, degradory name and are generally shunned. At the same time when you read chinese Lightnovels and they have japanese factions/characters inside they always get portraid as scum, rapists, liars, cowards and backstabbers (basically how they are depicted in this movie). And chinese stuff is heavily controlled by chinese gvnmt. I remember a chinese LN with over 2400chapters that is not allowed to be continued bc the setting COULD be interpreted as not hailing chinese mentality/culture over every other culture. (and I want to emphasize COULD)

As I've learned more about the history between Japan and China I've come to appreciate this movie for more than just the martial arts. It's a great lesson in that not everyone from the enemy country is the enemy.

There is no such thing as an enemy country. Conflicts are created by the Imperialist powers to "divide and conquer". If you've learned the "real history" and not the "winners version of history", you will know humans in spite of differences can get along. That is, until European and Anglo American Colonialism and Imperialism crashed the Human Party. Liberalism and Fascism are opposite arms of the same body which serves Imperialism.

This scene is why Fist of legend is my favorite kung-fu movie. I also prefer Jet Li to Bruce Lee version. Jet Li is extraordinary when he starts floating over the ground while boxing. Absolute legend. Godlike.

A superb example of martial arts choreography!

he didn't want to use his kung-fu as a homage to his master so he banned it and used this more western "boxing style" which was most likely a homage to bruce lee at the same time.

I always thouight Jet's best fight was in Fearless, against the Fu Jow Pai fighter. This one actually was a beautifully choreographed fight - the Hung Har stylist went through Tiger, Crane, and Dragon forms before switching to Mantis fist. It was trying to portray him as an equal, in that he'd studied more than one style. Well done.

Even when Jet Li is the "good guy" he looks like the "bad guy". Bro has some serious villain vibes (not a bad thing).

Although I do not like the Iranian government, after the passing of the Iranian president, I would like to express my condolences to the people and beloved country of Iran, God bless.

The only reason this is not the BEST kung fu flick of all time is because it is such an homage to the greatest films of the past. (including the one it is remaking, which is also one of the best ever made). I think it is very deliberately a love letter to golden age kung fu movies, particularly the outrageous fight with his father in law, where they basically demonstrate at least a dozen different fighting styles. And although it may not be the best, it will always be my favourtie.

Billy Chow, born on August 24, 1958, in Canada, graduated from a Canadian college. He is a world boxing champion, kickboxer, kung fu actor, and the light-middleweight world kickboxing champion.

I personally think Jet Li's best fight is his fight against the Twins at the end of Kiss of the Dragon. His fight with Jackie Chan in Forbidden Kingdom was also good, I'm just not a fan of extensive wire work. (And yes, I know some was used in Kiss of the Dragon, but it was minimal compared to other movie fights).

Nice one

I miss these things

I saw this move and fell in ❤

I love the moment he realizes he needs to take this seriously and ditches the defensive forms to "become water." Great nod to Bruce with its own injection of Jet Li's flavor!
