I am a fan of martial arts movies, mostly from hong kong.
As far as the real deal goes i know Jet Li in his younger days did well in competition matches. I think he would get more respect in his movies if he kept away from the wire work. Jackie Chan, Sammo Hung, Yuen Biao were never trained from what i remember.

The best martial art movie i have seen would be The Prodigal Son with sammo hung, yuen biao and Lam Ching Ying. Some great
fights, with none of the wire work. Great stuff.

Not much to say about Segal, i HATE crap, overedited american martial arts movies. I hold his movies in the same regard as the Karate Kid.
