There are martial arts and Asian martial arts best movies to watch. The former are based on power and weight, the second to elegance and desire.
Similarly there are martial arts movies and the Asian martial arts movies. The former are basically barrel film, more or less refined, the seconds are movies where violence is more stylized, surreal and poetic, the more it makes sense. Classic example of this idea is the wuxiapan, the Chinese martial arts film in costume all flights impossible and intricate plots, which at the end of years ' 90 it started to get out of his country to conquer the West.
Out this week at the cinema the plot of black stone a wuxiapan co-directed by John Woo(along with Chao-Bin Su, although I suspect I've done everything according to is strong) that blends what the master of 80 's Hong Kong action has learned and did in the West, with its early obsessions.
That's why we chose this opportunity to a ranking of the 10 must-see movies martial arts movies of recent years, including those contaminated by Western imagery. And for this reason we present them in strict order of violence. The more rarefied the more raw.
[List] Top 10 Best Martial Arts Movies of All Time
10. Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon
It was the Prophet of a new era, the first wuxiapan to be exported with the resonant name (on both sides of the planet) by Ang Lee. The purists schifano because no real martial artists (although on Michelle Yeoh might argue), the less attached to the genre will appreciate the contamination with the melodrama. Certainly the exquisiteness of the fights on the trees is unattainable.
9. Hero
The first of the 3 wuxiapan that Zhang Yimou, the Chinese filmmaker's largest and the most loved by the regime, has made it to Jet Li, one of the greatest masters of the history of Chinese cinema. The tale is deconstructed, so one understands even less than usual, Jet Li, directed by Zhang Yimou is sublime.
8. Ip Man
An instant classic. The story (almost biography) of Yip Man, the founder of the martial art Wing Chun and master of Bruce Lee is a project all about Hong Kong, to whose choreography there is one of the largest of the golden age (i.e. degli anni ' 80): Sammo Hung.
7. Rumble in the Bronx
"Jackie Chan goes to America but with a Chinese production". Before attempting a career in Hollywood made films that exploit the instant charm of his inventive but not have the rhythm and the lightness of his films Kar, the greatest martial artist in the history of cinema had already brought his technique, his movements and his inventiveness in New York.
6. Matrix
While Van Damme, Chuck Norris and Michael Dudikoff wore the Asian martial art in American cinema focusing on realism of his power, i.e. translating it to American culture, the Wachowski brothers have contaminated their dystopian science-fiction film with the most poetic and aesthetic part of that art. In fact is the first American wuxiapan germ.
5. Kill Bill
Between China and Japan, between samurai and martial artists, katanas and training atop Mount, Tarantino wants to turn the final film martial arts but not on martial arts cinema. And he wants to do it. The merger is so successful that no one understands more ends the quote of Lady Snowblood and where start to De Palma.
4. The Bourne Ultimatum
One of the characteristics of the "new Bond", the secret agent born on books by Ludlum and became the standard in terms of espionage at the cinema with three films that have marked the way of doing action and thriller, is the mastery of martial arts. Mind you, even James Bond in the mastered theory, and it shows how Sean Connery tramortiva guards giving cutting strokes with his hand at the base of the neck. But the realism of Bourne is another thing.
3. Ong Bak II
The biggest news that Asia has meted out in recent years in martial arts field filmichè is Tony Jaa. Particular personality, interesting film body and Grand Master in Tae Kwon Doo, emerged with Ong Bak then take the reins of the series with the next film. Light and heavy at the same time, quick but raw seems an Asian grew up with Van Damme movies.
2. Warrior
As boxing purists schifano Rocky, so the real athletes are measured on mixed martial arts distort the nose, everyone else but cry. Using real actors but often for the most extreme scenes (and there are), level Warrior stand-ins manages to be a martial arts film in which they slowly move into the background, leaving broken bones emerge and thrashing the true meaning of resounding sentimenalismo manly.
1. Undisputed 2
It was supposed to be a filmaccio of Z-series, designed only to build on the success of the first, beautiful film by Walter Hill and instead is the revelation of a crazy talent, to Scott Adkins. Quick, powerful and full of fantasy its Yuri Boika prides itself to be the perfect Warrior, but loses just because a production short-sighted gave him the role of the antagonist. The next film he will promote a positive star but it is here that you see the most impressive things.
