If you like Jet - maybe just getting into him you have to check out his older Chinese movies. Of course the production is sometimes not as good and sometimes the stories can be a little corny - but you want to see this guys skills you need to see him along side other Chinese martial artists. I think "Fist of Legend has two or three of the best martial arts scenes ever in a movie. Other good ones include The legend and The Once Upon a time in China series are very good also. Another to look for if you haven't seen him is Donnie Yen - many fans consider him a better martial artist than either Jet or Jackie. Look for the original Iron Monkey as a highlight of this guys skills.

Jackie Chan and Jet Li did not train together Jet was part of the Bejing Wushu Academy from the time he was eight years old. Jackie Chan was part of a group that trained at the Chinese Opera School including Yuen Biao and Sammo Hung who are both actors as well.

I remember watching Lethal Weapon 4 and thinking that I had to learn way more about this guy. I loved how he just kept smiling while he owned everyone in sight.

I love Lethal Weapon 4 and that was the first movie I have ever seen with Jet Li in it actually. His role was awesome in that movie too.

Geoff, great post by the way, I will look into getting more of Jet Li's movies. I am working on getting Fearless. I have 4 Jet Li dvds right now and trying to get more. The same with Jackie Chan. I have about 3 of his movies and I want to get Drunken Master because that's my favorite one. Jet Li and Jackie Chan's movies are just awesome.
