A Jet Li remake of Bruce Lee's 'fist of fury'. He can't kick like Lee but the kung fu is more traditional looking and great action all the way through.
Ong BakOng Bak
Buy new: £10.98 / Used from: £1.50
Not strictly a Kung Fu film - Tony Jaa is a master of Muay Thai, Taekwondo and gymnastics but how he puts it all together is mind blowing. An instant classic. We'll be seeing a lot more of Tony Jaa.
Dragons Forever [1988]Dragons Forever [1988]
Buy used from: £39.95
A modern classic. The three 'brothers' (trained together at the peking opera) Jacky Chan, Samo Hung and Yuen Biao all in a movie together. One of the best moments is when they all fight each other!

All three of the 'once upon a time in china' trilogy. The second one is my favourite with amazing fight scenes from Donnie Yuen
Iron Monkey [1993]Iron Monkey [1993]
Buy used from: £4.30
Iron Monkey (subtitled 'meets young Wong Fei Hong' in cantonese and if you don't know who he is, shame on you) a wonderful action film. A chinese robin hood adventure.
Fearless [2006]Fearless [2006]
Buy new: £3.98 / Used from: £2.50
Jet Li stated that this would be his last film but we'll have to wait and see. This is a powerful story of pride, and responsibility. A true strory about an icon of Chinese heroism

Another of Jacky Chan's early classics. A tale of a group of sailors enlisted as police officers. Amazing stunts.
Kung Fu Hustle [2005]Kung Fu Hustle [2005]
Buy new: £3.11 / Used from: £0.37
A little change - this is hilarious. Great action but better comedy. Stephen Chow makes a name for himself. Don't get the king of beggar movies - the humour doesnt translate at all
Warriors TwoWarriors Two
Buy used from: £19.99
How wonderful to see this available! Another Wing Chun movie, great action, good comedy and lots of cheesy dialogue.
