Donnie Yen

Donnie Yen is incredible! I've seen quite a few of his movies. My favorite of all of them would have to be Iron Monkey. He also did a good job in Fist of Fury, which is like a remake of Bruce Lee's The Chinese Connection. His Bruce Lee impersination is one of the best I've seen. He recreated all of the fight sequences from The Chinese connection, and added even more. The last two movies I saw him in was Blade 2. He had a small role, but did a lot of the fight corography with along with Wesley Snipes. And Hero. Which is the second time I've seen him battle Jet Li in a movie. The last time he Battled Jet Li in a movie was Once upon a time in China 2. Donnie Yen is deffinatly among my favorites when it comes to martial arts action stars. I know he has been in a few more since then that I havent' seen. I hope to see more from him, however...lately he's been on the directing side of the camera.....

Here's more on Yen

I think the remake of Bruce Lee's Fist of Fury was done by Jet Li.

I also liked Iron Monkey but his best of all time is in Hero, where he fights Jet Li's character.

It was Jet Li and the movie was called Fist of Legend. I should know. I'm a "Jet Li Fan".

Jet Li's version was called Fist of Legend. Jackie Chan also did a version once a while a go called New Fist of Fury. Donnie Yen's remake is called Fist of Fury. in which he actually remade the original fight scenes. The movie was awsome!!! You should check it out

Didn't know that. I would definitely need to look into it. I like Donnie Yen's fighting styles.

I wish he had a bigger role in front of the camera in Blade 2. The fews seconds of fighting he did do in that movie was awsome though.

I found the Fist of Fury by Donnie Yen on the blockbuster.com. I'll order it and watch it soon. I found it while looking for his latest movie with Sammo Hung, Kill Zone. The preview of the DVD was on SpikeTV during TUF 4 and I wanted to see it.

I finally got around to renting and watching Donnie Yen's Fist of Fury.

Horrible.

Looked like it was made for TV series and they edited it to make it a feature film. The acting were bad and so were the action.

Not recommened for neither the Bruce Lee fans nor Donnie Yen fans.

MMA_Fan is a jewel in the rough



He looked great in other movies. Maybe this just wasn't one of his better ones.
