1. I have only seen some of the fight scenes from this. I hear good things about the rest of it.

2. I didn’t even realize this was out yet. (By the way, if you are the person who wrote this, Donnie Yen is the same age as Jet Li.)

3. I normally watch a film I did not like a second time. This usually results in me picking up on various things that I missed before and I end up liking the film. I did the same thing with this one, but it didn’t work.

4. I watched this one on TV. Luckily, I was able to change the channel. I do not consider this a part of the Police story series. (I realize it is a retelling and not a sequal.)

5. This was an interesting movie. I haven’t read the comics, though. I would actually like to see this redone with updated CGI.

6. Good movie.

7. Haven’t seen it, but I’ve heard good things.

8. Haven’t seen it. I probably won’t actively search it out either. It just looks cheesy.

9. THE WORST WUXIA FILM EVER MADE!!!

10. Good movie.

This is not a list that I would recommend to other Kung Fu aficionados.

What the...? No Fist of Fury (Bruce Lee version)? No Snake In the Eagle's Shadow? No Drunken Master?

Because those should belong to the list.

I gotta admit, Donnie Yen's MA movies are cool. I've watched his movies many times and I never get bored of watching them again.

Yeah, it is out now, and it's not as good as the first. The second have devolves into some of the worst xenophobia and overacting I've seen in a while in a movie. The first Ip Man movie had that as well, but the second one really kicks it up a notch. The fights are better in the first one, too.

I just watched some of the fight scenes on youtube. They are indeed pretty good.

I can see what you mean about xenophobia. The presentation of "Mr. Twister" reminded me of minute 2:38 from this clip of Family Guy:

Just watched Flash Point. It was terrible. The two or three fights in the movie were decent, but nothing special. They would have been better if the camera were pulled back some so we could actually see the action. Donnie Yen, whose acting was pretty good in the Ip Man movies, shows his normal skills here; he's just not a great actor most of the time. The story didn't give him a chance to develop his character, nor anyone else's character. Very disappointing movie.

[HobbsTheLegalist]

Terrible list. Seven Swords was baaaad.

Good kung fu movies:
-Twin Warriors (alternative title Tai Chi Master)
-One-Armed Swordsman, a classic from the 1970s
-Kung Fu Hustle: the best!

Ip Man I and II were good though.

I like watching Chinese Kung Fu Movies. I feel happy and comfortable when I see them. Thanks for your suggestion about 10 Excellent Kung Fu Movies. I just see 6 of them. I like "New Police Story". It is a 2004 Hong Kong crime-action film starring Jackie Chan and directed by Benny Chan.

I wonder - is there a separate genre for supernatural kung fu? Talking about those long-distance fighting, where 一阳指 is a beam of 'chi' shot from afar, like 射雕英雄传, 神雕侠侣 etc. (Movies, of course.) Or, if you have read the novel - 诛仙, the genre it would be in if made into a movie. Thanks. I am a HUGE fan of it.

武俠 incorporates that a lot. 射雕英雄传, 神雕侠侣 are, of course, examples of 武俠.

Sadly, most of the shows, you have indicated here are rather new... in fact, if one speaks of really good Kung fu movies, it is necessary to move back into time to see the really good ones... right now most of the Kung fu movies are done with special effects... see the truly great Kung fu movies of the late 1960s to the 1970s... that is truly martial art... not that Donnie Yen is no good... but if he had to fact Bruce Lee in his heydays... I wonder.

[Swordsman]

I have watched all except Rob-B-Hood 宝贝计划 and 10. The Shaolin Temple 少林寺 ..

Why bruce lee movies and huang fei hong series not in the list...

[kmleong]

Bruce Lee, Donnie Yen & Jet Li Can Consider Kung Fu Movies. Other Are Just Stories Like Storm Warrior(Wind Cloud)
Jackie Chan? Consider him as a actor who is very good in using his acrobatic skills
