Viewing Notes
If you have the patience for forced melodrama, you’ll be rewarded with some amazing Martial Arts sequences and a stellar performance by Donnie Yen. A sequel to the original Jet Li flick FIST OF LEGEND (that being a remake of the Bruce Lee classic FISTS OF FURY) and the TV series starring Donnie Yen, LEGEND OF THE FIST is a decent way to kill 2 hours.
It never reaches the heights of the amazing WWI opening scene, but the action is still better than anything mainstream you’ll see.
