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.

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

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.

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).

He was the one evading the Hulk’s blows in the fight at the university
