    cosign this.

    EVERY time this comes on cable, I stop what I'm doing to watch it irregardless of where it's at in the movie. ? could be the last 53 seconds and I'mma stop to watch it.

    Also Jet Li's Once Upon A Time in China series is worth a look as is Hero and The Forbidden Kingdom (co-starring with Jackie Chan)

    This movie had a great story, along with great martial arts. One of Li's best movies since Hero I think.

    Not really a kung fu flick but more a strategy/war type flick: If you have Netflix, look for Red Cliff.

    Flashpoint
    Chocolate
    Old Boy
    Zatoichi (the one with Beat Takeshi in it)

    LOL, sick movie right, especially when the ? was hanging on hooks and they poured hot oil down his back.

    I've probably seen his ? before so I wouldn't think your crazy cause there's alot of nice martial artist out there but I'll check him out and give my honest opinion.
