Jet Li, Donnie Yen, Jackie Chan, Zhang Ziyi and Gong Li appear in many of these amazing movies from legendary and award-winning directors, Ang Lee, Tsui Hark and Zhang Yimou. 

​If you are new to the Wuxia genre, we hope that you enjoy these videos and that they give you a wonderful introduction to this  genre of heroism, martial arts, fantasy and adventure. If you are already a fan of Wuxia, then you may have watched these already, but you'll probably enjoy rewatching them again and reliving the excitement, and hopefully discover something new to watch.

Wuxia Literature and Cinema
 

While there are many terrific Wuxia films like the ones in our list, in some ways, Wuxia literature has been poorly served by cinematic adaptation. Some films promote style over substance, stripping the novels down to a mere sequence of fights and training montages. Wuxia literature is much more than simply an assortment of battles arranged into a plot.

 

Wuxia is a complicated genre of literature which, standing at the crux of fantasy and historical literature, manages to create an independent identity that has made it one of the most dominant forms of popular literature throughout East Asia. Read Article

FILM DESCRIPTION: Taiwanese filmmaker Ang Lee took a break from making Western period dramas to fashion this wild and woolly martial arts spectacular featuring special effects and action sequences courtesy of the choreographer of The Matrix (1999), Yuen Woo Ping. In the early 19th century, martial arts master Li Mu Bai (Chow Yun-Fat) is about to retire and enter a life of meditation, though he quietly longs to avenge the death of his master, who was killed by Jade Fox (Cheng Pei-pei). He gives his sword, a fabled 400-year-old weapon known as Green Destiny, to his friend, fellow martial arts wizard and secret love Yu Shu Lien (Michelle Yeoh), so that she may deliver it to Sir Te (Sihung Lung). Upon arrival in Peking, Yu happens upon Jen (Zhang Ziyi), a vivacious, willful politician's daughter. That night, a mysterious masked thief swipes Green Destiny, with Yu in hot pursuit -- resulting in the first of several martial arts action set pieces during the film. Li arrives in Beijing and eventually discovers that Jen is not only the masked thief but is also in cahoots with the evil Jade. In spite of this, Li sees great talent in Jen as a fighter and offers to school her in the finer points of martial arts and selflessness, an offer that Jen promptly rebukes. This film was first screened to much acclaim at the 2000 Cannes, Toronto, and New York film festivals and became a favorite when Academy Awards nominations were announced in 2001: Tiger snagged ten nods and later secured four wins for Best Cinematography, Score, Art Direction, and Foreign Language Film.

[Trailer] 黃飛鴻 ( Once Upon A Time In China ) - Restored Version

Once Upon A Time In China 黃飛鴻 (1991) 導演: 徐克 領銜主演: 李連杰, 元彪, 張學友, 關之琳 主演: 鄭則士, 邱健國, 任世官, 黃子揚 時值晚清「洋務運動」,朝廷以洋槍威嚇練武人士,衙門提督威迫寶芝林封館﹔鐵布衫嚴振東為揚名立萬,砸爛寶芝林招牌,黃飛鴻 (李連杰 飾) 左右受敵。少年梁寬 (元彪 飾) 欲拜黃為師不果,但對十三姨 (關之琳 飾) 一見鍾情,遂轉投嚴門下與黃作對。時逢出國掘金熱潮,不少無知人民受騙,嚴為金錢替人肉販子賣命,十三姨為救一名苦工,被捉拿後更險被送往金山當娼,幸黃及時趕至跟嚴決戰,終救出十三姨,寬正式拜黃為師。 Director: TSUI HARK Starring: JET LI, YUEN BAIO, JACKY CHEUNG, ROSAMUND KWAN Co-Starring: KENT CHENG, QIU JIAN GUO, YAN YEE KWAN, WONG CHI YEUNG Once Upon A Time In China is the film that defined Jet Li (Lethal Weapon 4, Romeo Must Die) as an action star destined for the international stage. His definitive kung fu and the vivid imagery of Tsui Hark (Peking Opera Blues, Swordsman II) make this a true classic of the genre. A more contemporary take on the evergreen tale of wise kung-fu master and purveyor of justice Huang Fei Hong (Jet Li), OUATIC is set in 1875 China when hostilities between the Chinese and the invading foreigners are simmering to a boil. Huang and his disciples take on the unscrupulous dealers who are trying to entice gullible Chinese into slavery in America and save his Aunt Yee (Rosamund Kwan) who is in danger of being shipped off to be a prostitute. Tsui Hark raises the bar on martial arts epics with OUATIC via imaginative technology and thrilling choreography. This created successful sequels – don’t be caught without this classic! http://www.fortunestarentertainment.com/ https://www.facebook.com/FortuneStarMedia © 2010 Fortune STAR Media Limited.
