shareMy top 10 (no order):
Sha Po Lang (2005) - not so much action but anyway great movie. I especially liked his fight scene with Sammo Hung.
Iron Monkey (1993) - classic
Wing Chun (1994) - forgotten film but very funny.
Tiger Cage II (1990) - brilliant scenes
In the Line of Duty 4 (1989) - see. Tiger Cage 2
Drunken Tai Chi (1984) - a must-see film
Legend of the Wolf (1997) - amazing fight scenes, very interesting story.
Flash Point (2007) - not as good as Sha po Lang but still very good.
Heroes Among Heroes (1992) - a bit boring but great film.
Iron Monkey II (1996) - underrated
"Legend of the Wolf (1997) - amazing fight scenes, very interesting story."
I'm sure they were great fight scenes but the editing was so bad that the action was just unwatchable. Oh and the story didn't really go anywhere. It was soul searching for two thirds of the film then a sudden blast from the past that was no developed making the audience not care. I'm a huge Donnie Yen fan and I'm sorry to say that his directorial debut was awful.
aside from those that someone listed Ip Man 2 is pretty awesome! Sammo and Donnie are together again and to me was better then SPL.
shareI have a bootleg of Mismatched Couples that would make excellent blackmail material.
A very young Donnie Yen breakdances like nobody's business in cringe-inducing 80's regalia. You know what I mean - permed hair, shoulder pads, jumpsuits, guyliner. Plus Yuen Woo Ping (THE Yuen Woo Ping) as his hapless buddy. Add other odd characters and Dick Wei as a psycho bodybuilder determined to fight the reluctant Donnie. Shake the whole mixture. Hilarity ensues.
The movie is actually growing on me. My advice - watch Ip Man first, where Donnie is at his most serious. Then watch this little known comedic gem. Genius!

Evolution takes no prisoners.
Mentioning Ip Man 2 without its predecessor is a criminal offense...
shareI just finish Ip Man 2 having watched the 1st one and I cant believe I didnt discover this guy earlier (although I had seen him in Hero but I didnt really pay much attention to him, even tho his fight with Jet Li is possibly the greatest fight I've seen). Thinking of renting Flashpoint, any more films you guys think I should see??
