Once Upon a Time in China
1991
Fists and feet fly like veritable lightning bolts when the brave Wong Fei-hung steps up to defend a noble martial arts school from corrupt government officials, a renegade swordsman and an illegal slave ring. A classic example of the Hong Kong school of filmmaking, this action-packed flick ends with an explosive finale in which Li uses every square inch of an old warehouse to pull off an array of intricate fight choreography.
Synopsis compliments of Netflix
Couldn't watch more than 15 minutes. The sickly sweet "China is the best country ever, and everyone else is a big doo-doo head!" thing got tiring real fast.
