i was just thinking about martial arts movies I used to watch. Ones starring Jet Li or Jackie Chan spring to mind. With beautifully choreographed and visually impressive fight scenes. With the notable exception of the John Wick franchise, which I do throughly enjoy, I feel like you don’t see much of that anymore. But maybe they do, and it’s just not on my radar. And I’m thinking less gun fu more kung fu.

I did do a low effort search (skimmed an IMDB new martial arts movie list) and there’s a few on there I hadn’t heard of but looked like they might be the flavor I’m looking for. But I also thought to ask the lemmyverse.

I would prefer ones that don’t use any CGI. In am cool with practical effects, even if a bit absurd. In English would be nice too (not dubbed), but I’m not adverse to subtitles.
