Martial Arts Instructor Reacts: Jet Li Vs Twins - Kiss of the Dragon

[@egg64]

I still think this is Jet Li's absolute best international film. So much about it was so goddamn amazing. Cory Yuen's choreography, Luc Besson/Chris Nahon direction, Craig Armstrong's score...great flick. Can't believe it's already 20 yrs old.

[@man0grc]

I know right ?!

[@martialartsthoughts]

This is because Jet wrote this film.. This is the type of film he's wanted to make for a long time... So he wrote this film

[@shawnheidingsfelder8179]

The scene of Jet Li accidentally entering the police station training room and fighting everyone with batons is also a great one from this movie.

[@riowinaryo18_86]

Even the karate guys too if you remember

[@shinomori69]

He was so damn fast in that.

[@jasenjacobs1365]

I love every fight in this movie.

[@gwinyairondozai5513]

Great scene. Great movie. Kind of sucked that the main protagonist was nowhere near to being a decent fighter

[@samuellp1146]

If you ever watched Fist Of Fury that's almost as close a scene of a Kung Fu artist going into a room of training Karatekas. That scene reminded me so much of Bruce Lee. Bruce Lee also broke out his Nunchucks in this movie (he was taught how to use them by another martial artist who used them before him). I still like the less dramatic part of this scene by Jet Li over Bruce Lee every time.

[@wedgeantilles4712]

Cyril Raffaeli is so underrated, it's a crime.

[@classyredneckcinema9327]

Ya he can actually fight he was a champion in france

[@user-sw8lc6qb6s]

I would say that Cyril Raffaeli was even better than Jet Li. The Twins knew what they were doing too.

[@Parker8752]

He's really good in District 13 too - that's a great film.

[@jamesgibson3716]

@@Parker8752 That was a great movie. Don't know why they did a weak remake with "Brick Mansions"...

[@Parker8752]

@@jamesgibson3716 I've honestly never heard of the remake.

[@TheMtVernonKid]

So fun Fact this was Jet Li's answers to all the critics that constantly said all he does is use wire work. Li purposefully wanted to take a realistic approach to the fight scenes, and forgo the CGI and wire work that had been popularized by films such as Charlie’s Angels and The Matrix. It is notable as most of the action sequences did not use CGI or wire work; only two scenes required CGI enhancement and only one scene involved wire work

This movie was so good in the theater that everyone stood up and clapped when it was over.

[@narcisorivero5893]

This fight scene is one of my favorite of Jet Li.

[@rambo7135]

The smaller twin was in Die Hard 4.0 and also the 2 District 13 films with another guy who was the co founder of Parkour. Love this scene and also the one where he goes in empty handed and fights about 30 black belts carry double sticks. He ends up disarming a couple and using the sticks on all of them. Great scene!

You totally missed how Jet limited his kick by fighting in the cubicles. Oh and he kicked the switch in the beginning of the scene to keep the other French officers out of the fight.

[@andrewpresley908]

Yeah, that was brilliant use of the environment. Neutralize the disadvantage and capitalize on the new advantage. That was enough to make him a bit loopy and make that final mistake with that flip.

[@allisterfield6028]

i especially liked that he looked left and right before calling the guy into the room, a small detail sure, but appreciated

Small blondie is played by french actor/stuntman/fight coodinator Cyril Raffaelli. He worked on Luc Besson productions (District 13, The Transporter 1&2), Die Hard 4 and The Incredible Hulk (parkour coodinator, Tim Roth stunt double).

[@jaytamayo4694]

Well killed! The white guy was very famous or famous in France based on some videos I watched. Going back to Jet, he has his very heavy hits despite not being muscular. I really love his punches when he traped the French guy. They are not only so fast but heavy. I kept on watching that seen Everytime I watch it. Effortless. And the final kick is a kaboom! Looks like being smashed by Thor's mallet.

[@shadowproductions969]

I think a few scenes from Blood and Bone with Michael Jai white would be interesting to react to. One thing I love about that movie is it shows he notices their weaknesses when they fight others and takes advantage of those weaknesses.

[@deforestcarterMVA]

Brooo just found your channel and man you are breakding down all my favorite fights😂 i thank you for this

[@Icecole73]

Danny the Dog is a good Jet Li flick

[@claudiurogojan7114]

the title in the U.S is Unleashed and I like that title better. It is a pretty damn good movie though.

[@dennisjr77]

Jet Li’s “ Fist of Legend,” is another classic you must check out.

[@forexdissector9565]

the music is really what makes this movie's fight scenes so epic. The fight scenes choreography are also excellent ,of course, but the music really gets the viewer involved and more interested in the fights, which is why i think this is the best martial arts movie off all time

[@peterlively8269]

Ever seen Danny the Dog, aka Unleashed? Probably Jet Li's most brutal fight scenes.

I purchase this movie from Walmart several years ago on high definition DVD. The music soundtrack is incredible in 5.1 surround sound stereo.

Some of the fight scenes/gun katas from Equilibrium are awesome too.. a good mix of real martial arts with Gun Fu

[@arik2216]

Too much shaking camera and cut. Yess that one is also my favorite fight all time in movie. Really revolusioner in term of martial act by mixing hand to hand and gun. The final fight is so intense.

[@allisterfield6028]

i remember seeing an interview for this movie where Max Ryan said the director forgot to say cut during a scene and a fight scene came right after so jet li grabbed him pulled him down and just smacked him lol

[@jameskatu6339]

I saw this movie when it came out at the movies 2001 on my 21st well the day after & it was epic & still is

[@RANCE22808]

That's Cyril Rafaelli. French martial artist. What I took away from the fight was that Li's character uses strategy which is not utilized by the twins. Li's character uses strategy by leading his opponent to a restricted environment that takes his kicking ability out of play as well as the other attacker.

[@bigfrankfraser1391]

got to love the pairing of cyril raffaelli & didier azoulay

[@tonym3659]

This movie Kiss of the Dragon is one of my first kung fu movie I ever seen!

[@GawrGurasBathTubPizza]

People always say short people cant beat tall people in a fight when they can but if you disadvantage them with rules of course its hard to win, but in a realistic environment its possible. Jet restricted his movement with the office twisted his leg/kick to the balls, then two palms to the ears to disorientate then finishing move. Hell bruce lee in "game of death" showed real moves to beat a 7ft gut aswell

[@spiritofzen7022]

Jet lis skill is amazing he is a bad ass

[@natfoote4967]

The little twin is Cyril Raffaelli who is a renown French martial artist. The clever bit is how Jet's character draws his into the cubicles where the confined space nullifies his ability to use his devastating circle kick and he has to rely on his hands. The big twin, Didier Azoulay, isn't a martial artist, just a really big dude, heavily muscular and nearly two meters tall. At 6'6" (198cm) he is a foot taller than Jet (167cm).

[@brolly7456]

The short guy is a french stuntman ciryl rafaelli,taxi,die hard4...the flip is his mark, If you see the transporter movie he was statham choregrapher and stuntman

[@tiatom221]

Great reaction 👍

[@eX1Dtv]

The "small" twin is: Cyril Raffaelli - Known from District B13 (Banlieue 13) and Disctict 13 Ultimatum (Banlieue 13: Ultimatum) Cyril has some absolutely nuts fight scenes in both of those movies well worth the checking.

Cyril Raffaelli is awesome! I saw some BTS footage, and that flip kick he did, was done with wires. He was actually able to do it without wires but it was too fast for the camera to catch so to slow it down they used wires. He also doubled for Tim Roth in The Incredible Hulk. He was the one evading the Hulk’s blows in the fight at the university
