After hundreds of movies, thousands of scenes of combat eye-popping and millions of punches thrown ... those are the best? What are those I have missed my life? Who do I have in my collection so as not to shame my family name?

# 1 - Way of the Dragon (1979)

It is the only finished film to be written and directed by Bruce Lee. (Game of Death is another but is unfinished) We could write a lot about the plot, characters or fight scenes ... but all you really is about watching Bruce Lee fight Chuck Norris in the final battle.

Martial Arts: Bruce Lee, Chuck Norris
Director: Bruce Lee

# 2 - The Shaolin Temple (1982)

Tells the amazing story of the Shaolin Temple, the focal point for Chinese martial arts. Think of the Shaolin Monks as Jedi Knights (an elite group of fighters) and the rest of China as the messed-up universe that Star Wars takes place in (people who are afraid of elite fighters and you want them out of power). A lot of work to do, you, young Jet Li Yoda focus photo that you Define irony: A film on the site of the Shaolin Temple, to tell a story about the fall of the Shaolin Temple, sparks public interest so that the temple was reopened shortly after the film came out.

Martial Artist: Jet Li (his first film)
Director: Chang Hsin-Yen

# 3 - Ong Bak (2003)

Raw action without son, Tony Jaa brings a new style of martial arts on screen and this, in the style. Muay Thai (Thai Boxing) is stronger and more direct than the Chinese styles, you're used to seeing with Bruce Lee and Jackie Chan, giving a new look at how a martial arts film that can be done. You will not see him ... Guaranteed.

Martial Artist: Tony Jaa
Director: Prachya Pinkaew

# 4 - Iron Monkey (1993)

Doctor by day, thief in the night ... Iron Monkey is your classic Robin Hood meets Kung Fu. It's a film full of action that can not go 5 minutes without a good fight scene. It all comes down to a battle between Iron Monkey (ie Robin Hood) and a former Shaolin Monk (remember, these guys are like the Jedi Knights of Chinese martial arts ... they are the elite ). Remember that Guy Yuen Wo-Ping I mentioned? Well, he is the director of it, so you know it's good!

Martial Arts: Yu Rong-Guang, Donnie Yen
Director: Yuen Wo-Ping
Action Directors: Yuen Cheung-yan, Yuen Shun-yi

# 5-5 Deadly Venoms (1978)

No room form "martial arts beauties" in it, there is so much blood and action they do male actors. Exit the elaborate costumes and enter the muscle, skin-bearing, style bloody martial arts would become a trademark for director Chang Cheh. Each actor is trained in an art resembling one of 5 venomous creatures (scorpions, snakes, Centipede, Gecko, Toad) with the sixth member of the distribution training in 5. Six main martial arts actors = LOTS O ACTION '

Martial Artists: 6 Martial Artists (yes, 6 main characters)
Director: Chang Cheh
