    The Chinese Connection
    Mad Monkey Kung Fu
    Dragons Forever
    Police Story
    Five Fingers of Death
    Dance of the Drunk Mantis
    Knockabout
    The Victim
    Once Upon a Time in China 2
    and one american flick...
    Big Trouble in Little China

    Shaolin Martial Arts (not to be confused with Martial Arts of Shaolin) (1974).

    Pedicab Driver (1989).

    Master Killer (1978).

    The Victim (1979).

    Drunken Master II (1994).

    The Kid From Kwangtung (1982).

    Prodigal Son (1981).

    Shaolin Challenges Ninja (Heroes of the East) (1978).

    Executioner From Shaolin (1977).

    Wheels on Meals (1984).

    Mine are listed in no particular order, but my favorite IS Shaolin Martial Arts...this movie not only introduced Gordon Liu, Leung Ka-Yan and Wong Lung-Wei, but as far as I know, was the first to have extended training sequences, and influenced later kung fu films as far as that goes.

    I'm surprised no one put romeo must die on there list. I've seen it about ten times. Check it out if you havn't already its excelent

    Sorry ish

    but Romeo must Die sucks, well atleast in my opinion definately no where near Jet Li's best
    too much wire tricks, and the x-ray scenes were corny. the best part of the movie was the fat wanna be bodyguard that always got his ass kicked.

    more must see flicks

    Shanghai Affairs- Donnie Yen and the guy who played Iron Monkey

    Barefoot Kid- Ti Lung

    Blade of Fury- Ti Lung/Sammo Hung

    Sam the Pron/Iron Bridge

    KickBoxer- Yuen Biao

    Warriors2- Sammo

    Martial Club- Gordon Lui

    Legend of the Wolf- Donnie Yen

    Legend of Drunken Tiger

    One Arm Hero

    East is Red- Bridgette Lin

    Yes Madaam- Cynthia Rothrock and Michele Yeow

    believe it or not Georgeous is good one

    Romeo Must Die was really bad, IMO. Jet Li's worst flick that I've seen
