  1. This movie is perfect.

  2. I will now stop laughing at Keanu Reeves acting. He plays the best villain in movies in the last ten years.

Forgot this movie existed. Will pirate.

I watched it last night. Loved it.

63

It was okay, Kung Fu Hustle and a few others were better.

It was entertaining but not top 10

64

It was surprisingly good imo. Right up until the fight with Reeves, man that part sucked.

I can’t help but laugh my ass off at that movie. [/quote]

Love Stephen Chow movies, especially Kungfu Hustle and Shaolin Soccer. What i really like about them is that they were loving tributes to the old Hong Kong martial arts movies(and some wuxia ones).

I thought the ending to Man of Tai Chi was as awesome as much as it was hilarious!

I like the realism (in a cinematic sense) in fight choreography with some bone crunching mma moves thrown in. The most recent film I;ve seen with great fight scenes was Special ID.

Love shoalin soccer. Was so happy when they put it on netflix.

My old roommates and I used to watch Kung Fu Hustle once a month. Shit is hysterical. Who hasn’t tried the toe crusher in a fight since seeing that movie?

Agreed. Keanu left his yacht and his sand garden to get his ass kicked.

Just watched " Man of Tai Chi " I really liked it. I also agree that Keanu (sp) played a good villain. Would have liked to see some more of that Tai Chi wind like move that killed Keanu at the end. Will look out for part 2.

Anyone a fan of Iron Monkey? I remember seeing that at a Sunday Matinee that was empty except for my friend and myself. Always had a soft spot in my heart for that one :slight_smile:

Yes! Love that movie. Watched it several times with my oldest son when it came out. One of my favorite martial arts movies.
