Kind of bored and looking for a good martial arts film.

The full extent of the movies I've seen is pretty broad, but I don't remember all of their titles, but here are some from off the top of my head that I really enjoyed, and would to see something similar.

Ip Man I & II
Fearless
Hero
Unleashed
Romeo Must Die
Kiss of the Dragon
Chocolate
Bullet Proof Monk
Drunken Master
Forbidden Kingdom
Ong Bak

There are more, but I don't remember their names at this time.

For what its worth, The Raid has a lot of great hand to hand combat.

Man of Tai Chi
Oldboy has hands down the best fight scene captured on film.

Also, watch They Live just for the classic over the top "put on the glasses" fight,

LMAO

The one where Jet Li remakes the Bruce lee movie.
Fist of Legend maybe?
Whatever it is it's bad ass.

The They Live fight mentioned is classic. I don't even remember their being a fight scene in Oldboy, but then again I can barely remember anything about that movie at all.

There's a huge fight in a long corridor, all shot from one angle (side). The action is seen through the side wall.

Oh yeah, now I remember.
It's like the fight scene equivalent of the hospital shootout from Hard Boiled.

When I think shoot out scenes, Heat wins hands down.

That sound....

Heat was awesome, but I picture Hard Boiled and it's 2+ minute single take shootout scene.

Pretty cool, but I prefer Heat.

Hey metal, did you know an Oldboy remake is coming out soon? I wonder what they'll do with that legendary hall fight.

Old Boy hands down for one of the best fight scenes I've ever watched. I'd also say Fearless is fantastic. Basically anything featuring Donnie Yen or Jet Li will get you a good movie. With Yen, check out Return of the Fist: the Legend of Chen Zhen, that was an awesome movie.

Yeah I saw the movie poster for it at the theater a few weeks ago. That's when I realized that I had seen it, but couldn't remember any of it or even what it was about.

It just means you'll get a chance to refresh your memory, but without the subtitles.
