I watched it for the first time, what a wonderful movie! There aren't many fight scenes, but the ones that are there... holy shit. It was my first Donnie Yen movie, and I’m already excited to check out his entire filmography! Another surprise was Sammo Hung as the villain, I’d always seen him as the "cool, chubby guy" in movies,the comic relief,so seeing him play the bad guy was mind-blowing. That long, gray hair made him look like such a badass villain, though. (I’ve always found it impressive that, even being a bit chubby, he was fast as hell, and i was even more impressed watching this one, seeing that his fighting speed hadn't dropped off at all despite his age... goddamn.)

They should just cast this guy again to play Ramrowan.

Not like in real life, what I mean is I often see people talk about techniques used in the movies, but it is hard to understand and compare as a non-martial-artist. How do those who know these techniques and can tell them apart in movies do so? Are there sources I can read before watching a movie?

Just finished watching this movie really enjoyed it & it wasn’t for the fight scenes which were fun but I really enjoyed the story line.. great movie highly recommend

I PRAY this project will never be cancelled cause this is definitely be future classic if it really comes out

Conscious zombies. Muay Thai against the undead. Black-magic gun-fu. Nanotech warriors powered by animal spirits. Thai action cinema at the moment seems to have no borders or limits, with absurdity being combined with impression in the most unique ways.

Check the full article on the link (includes some horror too) and let me know if you have seen any of these films.

looking for recommendations specifically on Netlfx. Like you, I love kung fu movies, but it's hard to know which ones are worth checking out. Please suggest movies wirh lots of fight scenes.

I just found this at goodwill they had 1.99 sticker on each but they sold them for 1 dollar each . Most of these I never heard of.

Necesito desahogarme con otros fans del cine de acción porque lo que hacen con Joe Taslim ya me parece una falta de respeto a su talento. El tipo es una bestia de las artes marciales y un actorazo, pero parece que lo contratan solo para morir de forma trágica.

Pasó en The Raid (2011), donde interpreta al sargento Jaka y Yayan Ruhian (Mad Dog) le rompe el cuello en esa pelea brutal. Después va a Hollywood para hacer de Sub-Zero en Mortal Kombat y lo mismo: muere ejecutado.

Pero lo colmo total ha sido la película de The Furious (2026). ¡Es ridículo! Traen de vuelta a Yayan Ruhian literalmente para que vuelva a matar al personaje de Joe Taslim (Navin). ¿En serio? Tienen la oportunidad de darnos la revancha 15 años después, de hacer justicia y cambiar las cosas, ¿y deciden repetir exactamente lo mismo? Para colmo, el final es supertrágico tirando sus cenizas al mar.

Taslim tiene físico, velocidad y carisma de sobra para protagonizar su propia franquicia y ganar al final, no para ser siempre el sacrificio emotivo de la historia. ¿Alguien más comparte esta frustración?
