To hell with Mr. miyagi. Do not think authentic kung-fu movies are like that american crap. In China they make them a lot differnt. More animated, more colorful, more action, much better acting. Well, I decided to review my favorite fictional supernatural martial arts film of all time. The Miracle Fighters. Directed by: Yuen Woo Ping. The same guy who did all the martial arts stuff for the matrix, this is something he did back in 1982. It’s old school, but man is this movie fun. Why do I recommend it? Because it’s trippy as hell. I mean this is one strange film, and for that, it gets my blessings. Subtitled only, sorry. I prefer the native tongue for the expressions in all foreign films and anime.

Yes, a magickal kung-fu movie. This movie is super cheese, but in that awesome way, you know in that 80s over the top in your face fun way. The special fx are neat for being old. The sets are great, the story is typical, but very interesting. The fight scenes are some of the best I have ever seen. The characters are fun like in that goofy anime kind of way. If any of you have seen the matrix and liked the fights in that, well thank the guy who made this film. This is his early work, and you can really see his true genius.

If you are into martial arts, like psychedelic stuff, or kung-fu movies. This is a must buy. I have watched this movie over 10 times, and i am still not sick of it. This is a cult classic for sure! Click here to buy The Miracle Fighters on DVD.
