Master Of The Flying Guillotine (product link) Martial Arts / Action/Adventure I didn't completely hate this one, but it was pretty cheesy. I can see how it would be a cult classic, but the choreography and continuity mistakes (seeing the one-armed boxer's other arm) were very frequent. The storyline wasn't too bad, but the scenes were a little overboard. If you really want to see kung fu roots watch this.
PanMedia Jackie Chan Bundle [5-Disc Set] (product link) Martial Arts / Action/Adventure The movies were great; wish I could get them all in original language format.
Dirty Tiger, Crazy Frog (product link) Martial Arts / Comedy Funny movie with great action as well. This was one of the better films featuring Sammo Hung, whom I feel doesn't have enough fame in the kung fu movie scene.
The Ultimate Jet Li Collection [4-Disc Set] (product link) Martial Arts / Action/Adventure Some of Jet Li's best work. Hard to talk about all of the films here.
Fist Of The White Lotus (product link) Martial Arts / Action/Adventure Loved this movie. The cross-gendered style of having to beat the villain definitely throws you for a loop but fits in perfectly. I always love the acupuncture-oriented fight scenes. Lo Lieh is a great villain who doesn't outshine Liu. Pick this one up.
Warriors Two (product link) Martial Arts / Action/Adventure This movie was awesome. I have to mention the great training sequences, done very believably. An even mixture of death, blood and comedy very bizzare but, done well. The only downfall was a little to much wire work during the ending, otherwise I would've given it a 5.
Shaolin Challenges Ninja (product link) Martial Arts / Action/Adventure One of my all time favorites. Definitely one of Gordon Liu's best films. I really love the peaceful ending and all of the diversities in the fight scenes.
The 7 Grandmasters (product link) Martial Arts / Action/Adventure I loved this movie, loved how the main character develops. Great storyline, awesome action, what else could you want from a classic kung fu flick?
The Boxer From Shantung (product link) Martial Arts / Action/Adventure Awesome movie! I feel like Brian De Palma drew some inspiration from this one in "Scarface" (Al Pacino). Really well done gangster movie from the east!
Iron Monkey [1993] (product link) Martial Arts / Action/Adventure This film has everything. Although I still love the traditional styled movies, this one stands above all the "newer" films. GREAT movie, you must own this one.
Return Of The 5 Deadly Venoms (product link) Martial Arts / Action/Adventure I love this good vs. evil to the tune of overcoming disabilities flick. Just straight action packed awesomeness. One of my all-time classic favorites.
Martial Arts Of Shaolin (product link) Martial Arts / Action/Adventure All of the stars in this movie were great, very fast-paced action and intricate fight scenes shot the old way in long shot, not with lots of camera tricks and wires. A great classic, I highly recommend this one.
The Return Of Master Killer (product link) Martial Arts / Action/Adventure I love kung fu movies like this where the person in training doesn't realize they are training until they've already attained it. Gordon Liu was great in this one and I thoroughly enjoyed this great classic.
Shaolin Master Killer (product link) Martial Arts / Action/Adventure This is definitely one of the best classic kung fu movies out there. I wish more movies were made like this nowadays--longer continuous shots, real action without the use of too many wires/special effects, just real martial arts showcased in this one. If you are a true collector/fan, you must own this one.
Invincible Pole Fighter (product link) Martial Arts / Action/Adventure This was a truly awesome Shaw Brothers masterpiece. I love the clueless Gordon Liu's training. Beautifully shot, great all-around flick. I highly recommend this one.
Mad Monkey Kung Fu (product link) Martial Arts / Action/Adventure Great is all I can say about this one: great choreography, story, and actors. Very well done film, a true kung fu classic; definitely worth it.
Five Shaolin Masters (product link) Martial Arts / Action/Adventure This was an excellent film and a definite kung fu classic! I recommend it to any fan of the genre. Great scenes and actors.
