Almost everyone I know who has studied martial arts got a start watching kung fu films. No one will forget the classic movies done by Bruce Lee. He really set a new standard in martial arts films. He just know how to make things faster, more dramatic, and more involved than ever before. His films are excellent and interesting in plot as well.

When watching old martial arts movies, it is easy to forget how pioneering They were at the time. Many people get caught up in the bad translations and cheesy dialog, not noticing me incredible fight scenes. The modern Chinese martial arts films took a big step further. The films of people like Chow Yun Fat, Jet Li, and Jackie Chan have set a whole news level of excellence for martial arts fight scenes. The combined special effects, brilliant choreography, and humorous antics roll into one seamless whole masterpiece.

Of course, There are plenty of other martial arts movies besides the kung fu films such as movies about tai chi moves. The US has been making fighting films for years. Well, there are the Karate Kid movies. Anyone who grewup in the 80s era will know these films. Their style are unique and that make it interesting. Karate is no longer interesting. In the Karate Kid movies, however, they really made it work very well.

Some of the more creative and interesting movies belong to the demostration catergory. I first saw a tai chi chuan moves demonstration video about a year ago, and since then I have been watching every single one I can get my hands on. Many of these demos are based around long, elaborate, intricate dance-like routines rather than simple fighting. The moves while serve a combative purpose, is also both graceful and beautiful. The fighters shadowbox with imaginary enemies, leaping, vaulting, kicking, and punching all over the stage with perfect gracefullness. Their moves are filled with flashy aerobatics and martial arts weapons displays with grunts, shouts, and shoulder rolls. All in all, it is almost every bit as dramatic as watching Jackie Chan take on the bad guys in one of his martial arts movies. Best of all, it gives you a taste of the art that you don’t really get in the big kung fu movies, No matter how cool they are. It just feel more real and immediate.
