Oh..I thought the movie you recomended was called"China", I've seen "once Upon A Time In China" and was very disapointed with it. I take Krav Maga which is a fighting system consisting of various effective "Martial" Military Arts. My istructor said the movie would blow me away, and rivaled that of the great Bruce Lee movies. In my opinion he was off his block. Besides painfully low budget, poor acting, boring action scenes, and disapointing climax. I love good action movies, wheather its DeNiro in "Ronin", Clint in "Good, Bad, & Ugly", Arnold in "Predator", or Lee in "Chinese Connection". I hope that Jet Li does in the future make great action flix, but from what I've seen so far (about 6 movies), they are just way too slow and boring. Regardless of an actors actual fighting skills, they don't mean much in the movies if there is not a great choregrapher on the set, an interesting plot, decent soundtrack, good supporting actors, and a great climax. Jet may be the future of the Martial Arts Flicks, but he still has a way to go.
