Some discovered martial arts because their parents were training, some while hearing their friends talking about them but for many of us, our martial arts curiosity was ignited by watching martial arts movies.
Every one of us that was pulled into the world of martial arts this way had actors that made us want to be like them. For some, it was Bruce Lee and for some it was Jean-Claude Van Damme.
Growing up in the 80’s, my answers are very common ones. For me, my interest in martial arts started by watching movies like Bloodsport and the Karate Kid. My father always talked about how incredible Bruce Lee was but it was later, during my teen years, that i started watching Chinese movies.
Watching martial arts movies at home with my parents or trying to replicate them with my cousins are a great part of my childhood. For this reason, i will be writing reviews on some my favorite movies and about the actors i enjoy watching the most.
I do not own the images i will be sharing in these articles!
Enjoy!
