Agreement:62% of 29 voters agree with KungfuManiac's reviews Gender: Male Age: 27 Location: Hollywood, CA
Bio: I am a Kung Fu Maniac. I love a lot of martial arts films. I usually like the underdog stories where the hero has to take a transformation to be something. The destiny of a human is so greater then anything else.
I live in Hollywood, CA. I studied & trained in many martial arts competitions. My job is a stuntman & personal trainer. I have done a lot of really bad B-movie action films, but none the less it's work, it's a stuntmans job.
Fist Of Legend (product link) Martial Arts / Action/Adventure There are a lot of people that say "this film is an all right picture, but it's not that good."
In my opinion this is a classic martial arts movie! "Fist of Legend" is directed by Gordon Chan, and I think this is the best movie he has made so far. I also believe this is one of the best remakes of a movie. Bruce Lee is a legend in my eyes, and to see Jet Li remaking a classic film just puts a smile on my face. It's great to see the stars you love and find out who they were inspired by. Bruce Lee has touched many people's lives and he has opened doors for any would be followers in martial arts. "Fist Of Legend" will remain on my top 5 of the greatest martial arts films ever made.

I too think Gordon has some good things yet to come.
Definite classic. Ignore the one guy who can't see what's right in front of his face. I don't get how anyone could say anything bad about this film. I theorize that he actually knows nothing at all about martial arts whatsoever.
actually, it looks like I'm the only one who doesn't think that. Nice to know that people are re-reviewing this one to keep the rating up. You're a liar if you think this is better than Lar Kar Leung, Gordon Liu, and the venom's best stuff.
So Close (product link) Action/Adventure / Martial Arts "So Close" is another entertaining picture from Corey Yuen. The movie is everywhere but it does deliver some great action moments. The car chase is wild and the gunplay plus fights were enjoyable. The film has a lot of dramatic moments that I really did not care about, but like I said the action does deliver.
In The Line Of Duty 4 (product link) Martial Arts / Girls With Guns This is an awesome martial arts film! I am a huge fan of the 80's flicks. The kung fu 80's movies get into the action right away and never slow down one bit. The stories are intriguing plus you get real gritty action sequences.
"In The Line of Duty 4" is my fave of the 7 films in the series. The action is insane and, well, the movie is kind of cheesy but all ind all it's well worth it. Donnie Yen is kicking ass in this movie plus dragging on the back of a motorcycle. The movie is amazing!
Chocolate [2008] (product link) Martial Arts / Action/Adventure "Chocolate" is a horrible martial arts film. The action scenes were badly directed, because every action scene looked the same as the first one. The story was horrible, and compared to director's previous work the action is a big let down. There is nothing amazing in this picture. The movie is too long and boring.
I think you either love this film or hate it. Obviously you hated it, but there are some entertaining moments that qualify this film for more than a half star.
I disagree with only giving it a half star because it was fairly entertaining. However, I do agree with your remark concerning the tediousness of the fight scenes.
Have not seen movie but must comment on your horribly uneducated comments I keep seeing all over the place including my junk. Write some reviews and prove you know what you are talking about because honestly most of us realize you are a fanboy.
