Martial Arts Films


Martial Arts Films first film was back in 1928 that was The Burning Of The Red Lotus Temple. But the films did not popular untill the 1970's with the rise of Bruce lee in his first movie Fist Of Fury. The Genre changed alot since it began such as the effects, voice's, and it got more expensive to make.
     There was alot of actors, directors, and writers who impacted the genre but a couple made the films more popular such as:

• Bruce Lee - Actor, Director, Screen writer
• Jackie Chan - Actor, Director
• Jet Li - Actor
• Chuck Norris - Actor

     I would describe martial arts films as a action packed film with a good story to it. They use alot of low camera angles to make the person look tough, and they use a little high and level angles in fight scenes to show the surrondings. The music playing is old orchestra music for fight scenes that gets really intense. Mostly chinese stared in the films but in recent films there are different races.
