You beat a man, they call you tough. You beat an army, they call you The Street Fighter!  Full Movie A great change of pace narrative in the martial arts genre. Whereas Bruce Lee is a stoic man of virtue that no man can lay a hand on, Sonny Chiba is a cowardly and ruthless mercenary, bandit, occasional slaver. His fights are a mess of broken bones and blood, not philosophical art. I highly recommend it as one of the best martial arts movies of all time.

If you like bone crunching action and gore, I have some more picks.

Worried that Cheng may launch a counterattack, Ching's Prince Ta sends his finest warriors to Taiwan in hopes of killing Cheng and his plan. But they have to contend with Cheng's elite kung fu guards first! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jPZcI8xVuZw Five Fingers of Death A promising young martial arts student named Chi-Hao has spent most of his life studying under a master and has fallen in love with the master's daughter Yin-Yin. After the master fails to properly fight off a group of thugs, he sends Chi-Hao to study under a superior master, Shen Chin-Pei. He instructs Chi-Hao to learn from Chin-Pei and defeat the local martial arts tyrant, Ming Dung-Shun, in an upcoming tournament in order to earn Yin-Yin's hand. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BAjzLe7ORkw Last Hurrah For Chivalry Last Hurrah for Chivalry is a story about two killers for hire. The two assassins are master swordsmen with no allegiance. They decide to help out a local merchant, seeking revenge against a kungfu master.

Humbug Scoolbus posted:Fantasy Mission Force...(yeah it's 1984 but who cares...) I went into this blind when I picked up a dvd collection of really early Jackie Chan flicks at a pawn shop and to this day question still come to me about this movie when my mind wanders. Mostly, "Why?" "How?" "What??"
