Plot Summary
Superstar Jet Li shows off his legendary speed, power, and agility at the peak of his martial arts prowess in this sweeping action epic. In an age of swordsmen and rebellion, two best friends and fellow martial arts students are expelled from the storied temple of Shaolin, only to meet again on the battlefield – one a power-hungry general, the other a freedom-fighting rebel, both mortal enemies. Featuring Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon’s Michelle Yeoh and directed by the celebrated Yuen Wo-ping (action choreographer of The Matrix films), Tai Chi Master is a quintessential martial arts classic.
Customer Reviews
good action
This movie is what the end of the first matrix is based upon. the fight scene where he knows what is going to happen and fights all calm, it's right here. it's better too, for it is way faster and more stylized since it's from China and the original hard to please chinese audience. Buying; maybe not, but it is a good rent for sure.

I thought this movie was very good and the action was incredible. Jet Li was incredible!
Old-school martial arts flick
Not a bad movie, but you need to be able to deal with flying people who can alter the laws of nature with their bare hands. Jet Li is amazing as are the other main characters, but each time they did something super-natural, you kind-of wished they hadn't as it didn't really add much to the story line. The movie is sub-titled, so prepare to read a lot. Despite the wire-supports (which you can clearly see) helping people fly, the movie was pretty good and entertaining while on an airplane.
