Like most people, you've thought of dressing up as martial-arts superstar Jet Li for Halloween. But do you know enough of his legendary moves to successfully pull off such an impersonation without looking like a doofus? Are you able to lay waste to everyone else at the costume party without breaking a sweat, using only a few well-placed chops and kicks? And look really cool doing it?

If not, have no fear. All you need in order to learn how to be the very best butt-kicking Jet Li impersonator that you can be (while enjoying some of the greatest action flicks of all time) is to check out the following thrill-packed DVDs from Dragon Dynasty. Watch and learn!


THE ENFORCER
Special Collector's Edition

Martial arts legend Jet Li explodes off the screen in this high-octane, bone-crushing hit. Li is at his lightning-quick best, starring as an undercover detective embedded with a ruthless gang. When another cop (Anita Mui, Rumble in the Bronx) accidentally blows his cover, the only way to protect his family is to take on the gang’s psychopathic leader head-to-head. Featuring an astonishing kung fu performance from the fiery Tse Mui (New Legend of Shaolin) as Li’s young son and groundbreaking fight scenes from acclaimed director/action choreographer Corey Yuen (The Transporter), The Enforcer is a "slam bang, balls-out action film" (DVDCult.com).

FIST OF LEGEND
Two Disc Ultimate Edition

Widely regarded as the greatest film of two legendary careers, Fist of Legend teams superstar Jet Li with martial arts choreographer Yuen Wo-ping (The Matrix) for "some of the best fight sequences you will ever see" (Dan Mitchell, IGN Movies). In this tribute to Bruce Lee's classic The Chinese Connection (aka Fists of Fury), Li radiates sheer power and coolness as a kung fu phenom living abroad who returns home to avenge the death of his master and save his martial arts school. Shifting effortlessly among diverse fighting styles, Li even fights blindfolded and wields his belt as a deadly weapon. Fist of Legend is essential viewing for any Jet Li fan and "the promised land for kung fu cinema" (HongKongCinema.com).

Special Collectors Edition

Superstar Jet Li shows off his legendary speed, power, and agility at the peak of his martial arts prowess in this sweeping action epic.

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.

While his fighting ability and charm made him a local champion, his epic battle for freedom would make him alegendary hero. Acclaimed choreographer Corey Yuen (The Transporter) directs Li at his jaw-dropping best, including an unbelievable sequence fought entirely atop the heads of stunned onlookers.
