Not really a martial arts film but reclaiming the blade is on netflix and might interest you
[QUOTE=Diesel_tke;2665427]I just started watching it! Cool so far, but I realized you left something out of your description… Indigenous nudity!! Nice! War, martial arts, and nudity! Can’t get much better![/QUOTE]
Legend has it (and my “legend,” I mean Thomas Mofolo’s portrayal of him in the book Chaka) that Shaka would walk around his capital naked in order to “awe his subjects with his physique.”
He was like the real life Conan the Barbarian. Too badass for clothing.
Yeah, he was a real bad ass!

Ip Man
Ip Man 2
^The movies above are both movies loosely based on Ip Man’s life. Lots of beautifully choreographed action scenes. I prefer the 1st film over the 2nd though.
Bodyguards and Assassins
Shaolin
Not really martial arts related but my wife and I just watched an Italian film from 1976 entitled “Live Like a Cop, Die Like a Man”. Epic.
Never back down 2
I was actually impressed!
[QUOTE=JohnnyCache;2681957]A capoeira film called “the assailant” has hit netflix.[/QUOTE]
I got done watching it recently. Its another cool legend about Besouro (beetle) a capeira legend!
they chant his name in songs often. Iv hear lore about him once in a while
Some good movies would be “Legend of the Fist: The return of Chen Zhen” “Romeo must Die” and “Jet Li The One.” If you didn’t like them sorry, but I personally enjoy them ^.^.

Arrows… Korean Flic, Detective Dee and the Phantom of tthe mystery Flame, Man from nowhere…
[QUOTE=strikistanian;2374078]Oh yeah, how’d I forget about that one? I haven’t watched the whole thing, so maybe it’s explained, but why is it called ‘Fighting Black Kings?’[/QUOTE]
It’ a little misleading the original title was strongest karate but appeal to the americans I guess they changed the name. It kindv’e makes sense seeing as how the fighterz from america all but one are african american.
“The Hunted” just saw that the other night for the first time in years.
Can a wrestler- watch “beyond the mat” and let me know if its as good as it looks?
