Mine has to be Crying Freeman. Since it wasn't released in US, I had to buy the Portugese DVD from eBay to watch it.

Great scenary and great fight scenes.

Recommend it highly.

Mine is Brotherhood of the Wolf. He wasn't the main character but the action scenes were out of this world. Didn't care too much for the story.

By far the "Crying Freeman" was his best work. Like NinjaMaster mentioned, too bad it is not released in the US. I watched it with Korean subtitle.

Another movie called "The Drive" was also had good action in it. Dumb story - he's the prototype robot of something. Anyway, what more can you ask for in a martial arts movie than good action scenes?

Good story added to the good action scenes = great martial arts movie.

I agree. Good story certainly makes a good action movie even better.

If you are looking for great story, martial arts section is not where you want to be. Go over to the Drama section.

It may just be me, but I would sacrifice a little bit of story for much better fighting sequence.

Why can't I have both? Good action and good plot.

Crying Freeman had both. Great fight scenes and a killer with conscience who cries for his victims, even though they are all evil and deserve to die.

As a fan of capoeira, I have to go with only the strong as my favorite. Not his best, but my favoirte. I think one of the best movies I've seen as far as action and fight sceene are concerned was Drive.

You should try Brotherhood of the Wolf and Crying Freeman.

I've seen brother hood of the wolf. It was a really good movie, and the fight sceenes where increadible...but i needed to see more from him, plus I hated the way he had to die in the movie. Awsome movie though I agree.

I need to see crying freeman again. I saw it once, but I don't believe i saw the entire thing. But I did see a few really goood fight sceenes.

Anybody know of any new projects he maybe working on?
