There have seen two Asian martial arts movies that have been set back in the old days of Asia that I have watched recently the first being called, Musa: The Warrior and Bichunmoo. And these a relatively new as they both feature the chinese girl from Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon in them. Musa the Warrior is also supposebly a remake of the old Japanese movie, Seven Samurai but I'm not totally sure on this as I haven't seen Saven Samurai yet (trying to find it to rent first.)
And while these movies are martial arts movies primarily, the creators have managed to fit a great deal of drama in amongst all the fighting and cool sword fights. And to top it all off, the movies haven't been ruined by being dubbed, sure the audio and video has been cleaned a bit for a better veiwing but they're still awesom movies.
I was wondering what are the favorites of everyone here? They don't have to be new ones either, but they have to be Asian.
now i don't watch any martial arts films but i do buy alot of sentai live action tv shows. ultraman tiga and masked rider 555 to name some of the newest ones.
