Hello,
I love House of Flying Daggers and Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon...
In the same style, I have a few rare memories of a similar, more modern movie.
The movie poster is, if I remember correctly, orange-tinted, the main actor has a huge tattoo on his back. From very distant memory, the title of the movie is: ..... man
the problem is I can't remember anything else.
Not easy to find it online.
Does anyone have an idea?
Thanks,

    There is also Swordsman 2 on page 12

    Hello

    Ip Man is a very good martial arts movie.

    As for those fierce soldiers, I say, it's not to gossip,
    but they do nothing but roar in our countryside.

    Hello
    I think it's Ip Man. It's the Wing Chun style.
    Be careful, there are 4 films about him
    Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon is Tai Chi Chuan style and a bit of Kung Fu.
    Flying Daggers is a show style. Not even Kung Fu. It's a very weird Wushu.

      Personally, I didn't like it; I found that it was a bit poorly acted (well, that's the Asian style...) and the fights were too choreographed.

      You can also check out Jet Li's biography, there’s plenty of material, for example, Once Upon a Time in China, Fist of Legend, and many others...

      Mmm, mmm. You might be right. I was mainly watching the feats of the guy in question.
      I can't do Muay Thai anyway...
      A guy who has done movies but is a true weapon of a man is Steven Seagal. Traditional Aikido.
