Yep. Both contain a semblance of Wing Chun. Both fun movies and worth seeing if you like Kung Fu theater. :)

i'd say those two films are two of the besk kung fu films i've seen. definatly worth watchin. i've also seen a film called wing chun which is also quite good.

i've seen all of prodigle son. i've seen part of warriors 2. my sifu showed me a little of it ounce. i like both very much. wing chun with michel yeo is not very good. the wing chun is really bad. its basically like she used pak sau, tan sau, bai jong, and the straight punch and they call it wing chun.

Warriors Two is in my opinion better than prodigal son ( which was a little too comedic for my tastes), I saw the michelle yeoh movie wing chun a long time ago before i started wing chun so i cant remember the quality of it.
As far as Warriors Two i think the fight scenes are great , and show more wing chun than any other movie I have seen, yes it is still just a kung fu movie, but it had more than the usual acrobatics, and some time had to be taken to make sure they got the wing chun in. I definitely recommend it ( for entertainment purposes).

I've already seen the movie with Michelle Yeoh. There's no real WC in it, but bought the movie cause i like her very much.

What i've heard about Sammo Hung is, that he likes working with Wing Chun in his movies.

Thanx to all for your replys

BTW:I've ordered both on HKFlix (http://www.hkflix.com)

I lent both tapes to my sifu. He liked Warriors 2 better. I told him it's because there's too much cross-dressing in Prodigal Son. :) The movie is very steeped in Chinese culture. Personally, I like both movies.
