Siu ngo gong woo: Dung Fong Bat Bai (1992)


 

Ling Wu Chung decides to hide from the chaotic world. Before leaving, he visits his friends, a tribe of snake-wielding women warriors. However, he finds that the tribe have been attacked, and their leader Yam Ying Ying has been abducted. 

Fast-paced and action-packed martial arts tale is beautifully photographed and the fight and battle scenes are stunning, but pace also makes it difficult to follow the narrative which is full of cultural references and has many twists.

Huo yuanjia (2006)



A biography of Chinese Martial Arts Master Huo Yuanjia, who is the founder and spiritual guru of the Jin Wu Sports Federation.

Professionally well-made martial arts bio-pic that offers some emotion and soul-searching besides the excellent fight scenes.

Maltin***: "Li apparently caps his career in this genre...Emotionally charged and visually striking; Li shows why is a master of the art."
