Far too many to mention from the usual suspects of John Woo, Jackie, Chow, Jet Li

So let's go with Iron Monkey, Swordsman II, Zu Warriors from the Magic Mountain, Eight Diagram Pole Fighter, Clan of the White Lotus, Shaolin Soccer, Election I + II and the opening scene from Saviour of the Soul

A Better Tomorrow II

Speaking of Eight Diagram Pole Fighter, Shaw Bros. movies used to be what people were talking about when they mentioned Hong Kong action. Some of my favorites were in the 70's (meaning Five Deadly Venoms (1978) just misses the cutoff here, boo, hiss, etc), but the 80's still had them turn out some greats like Martial Arts of Shaolin (1987) starring Jet Li, the aforementioned Pole Fighter, and maybe the wildest one they ever made: Five Elements Ninjas (1982)!

This is the kind of picture that the phrase "over-the-top" was made for - if you've got *any* tolerance for silly action in you, I think I can promise you'll enjoy this movie.

Epic!

Story of Ricky from my under standing was Fist of the north star (Boot leg?)live action done right! Not like the USA made one, which i still enjoyed,but it just diid not feel right.

IF you guys have not done so already, watch and compare them, and you will see what i mean.
