Once Upon a Time in China (1991)

Once Upon a Time in China (also known as entering the New Game of Death in the Philippines) is a 1991 Hong Kong martial arts film directed by Tsui Hark and starring Jet Li as Wong Fei-hung, a Chinese martial arts expert and folk hero of Cantonese origin. The film is the first in the Once Upon a Time in China series.

The film is set in the nineteenth century. Wong Fei-hung, a great martial arts champion, is played by Jet Li. Aunt Yee, played by Rosamund Kwan, returns from America. The narrative isn't particularly complex. All that counts is that the movie features a lot of amazing battle scenes. There's a lot of great combat choreography here, including a fantastic umbrella sequence that would make Jackie Chan pleased. Though sluggish at first, as the action sequences begin, the film picks up speed and tugs you along with it. The action is what distinguishes this film.
