So I was eating lunch at work, and in the crew room there was a foriegn martial arts movie on the tv. Nobody had any clue what it was called though, but I liked the parts I saw and was hoping to get to watch it... Problem is i didnt know any actors and cant remember any character names.
Heres what I do remember:
-when I started watching it was during some fight scene between two men, one dude evil looking and pale, and the other guy was fighting to save his wife, who was buried alive somewhere. There was the mans little boy in the background, and at some point theu started fighting in a well with snakes in it.
- after that the man and boy were living in the streets, the man had become a drunk and ended up drunk fighting another drunk dude in a pub over some wine. Not to sure what was going on but it was awesome.
-before my lunch was over there was some talk about the man being once a general, and one of his old friends having to fight a bunch of foreigners in an arena to shut it down because they were killing asians for fun or something.
I dont remember much else, i was in a rush to finish my lunch. I dont know if the part i saw was early or late in the movie or even how old the movie is ( but it looks recent)
Anyway, the fighting looked pretty good and id like to rent and watch it if anyone knows what movie this was. Thanks in advance.
What martial arts movie was i watching?
@Artikay: I've seen it in video stores here in Canada, so it should be in America. Hope you manage to find it, it's got some pretty sweet fight scenes.
I've got another one, uh, a "What Martial Arts movie was i watching 2", if you will. this is all i can remember, but if anybody gets it it'll be a miracle because no amount of googling has helped. i'm pretty sure it was chinese, and im pretty sure it's fairly old.
- there was a character called 'Kicker', who just fought using kicks.
-one part of the movie featured a bunch of martial artists fighting their way up some sort of GIANT BAMBOO TOWER holding FLAGS, some sort of competition i think. this took place at night. i remember it vividly because it was bitchin' awesome.
-one of the characters fought at one point in a bowler hat and suit.
Saw it on SBS one night like ten years ago. it haunts my dreams.
@Jammy411: The bamboo tower competition sounds kinda like the tree competition in Ong-bak, but the rest of the details don't. Damn. I wish I knew what movie this was, cause it sounds kind of awesome.
@Jammy411: The movie you are searching might be "Dragon Lord" an early Jackie Chan movie. At least there is a scene in the beginning which has a massive fight on a bamboo pyramid...
