These Little-Known Martial Arts Movies Feature An Action Legend In The Lead Role

Martial arts movies are not extremely common, at least when it comes to American blockbusters. Still, we do occasionally get a flick like John Wick that emphasizes this aspect, but they are few and far in-between, and they tend to require the attachment of a big name to perform well. Rare as they might be, when one of these films clicks, they can put other action genres to shame. They not only incorporate great choreography, but also frequently feature actors who are capable of doing their own stunts. The likes of Jackie Chan, Donnie Yen, Jet Li, Michelle Yeoh, Tony Jaa, and the late-great Bruce Lee have a physical presence and charisma that is hard to beat, and they all have their own styles that highlight their personalities and raw talent.
