    Okay, so I recently watched a video detailing Jackie Chan's top ten fight scenes, so I watched a couple of movies from the list (Dragons Forever and Wheels on Meals), and I really liked the choreography, so I've been looking to expand my tastes in this genre. Does anyone know of some great fight movies? I'm not just looking for Chan flicks though, any martial arts actor will do, although I do love Jackie's humor. So, any recommendations?

    Have you seen any Seagal movies before? I would suggest watching Under Siege, On Deadly Ground and his newest movie Deadly Crossing (I think the last one is only at Red Box right now). His style is aikido but he seriously smashes bad guys like no one else.

    Poorly dubbed Martial Arts films are the best Martial Arts films.

    ...yes that IS the movie Steve Oedekerk made into Kung Pow: Enter the Fist but it's still pretty good.

    Seagal's movies are better than Enter the Dragon even! Watch Deadly Crossing if you disagree...I'm telling you : you won't be sorry! That is, IF you like action/fighting movies :p

    This is an obvious troll.
    Nobody in their right mind would compare Bruce Lee to Stephen Seagal.
    It's like comparing Van Gogh to a monkey with crayon.

    Kung Pow is funny but even the action doesn't keep up with Deadly Crossing lol OK I'll stop talking about it but it's awesome if you don't see it you're missing out!

    Lol I just mean in the sense of a typical action movie. Bruce Lee is the best ever...but Seagal is a better action hero on the big screen. You agree?

    No. Seagal is a horrible actor, and all of the special effects in the world cannot hide that fact.
    If you want a GOOD action movie, watch Die Hard.

    There's a movie called Chocolate that I really like. IIRC, all the stunts are real. Plus it's just a fun movie.

    I was going to post the trailer, but uhhh... it looked extremely cheesy, just watch the movie not the trailer.
