Podcasts about Jet Li

Behind Jet Li's martial arts mastery and international fame is a deeply personal journey to understand purpose, ego, and freedom. In today's episode, he sits down with Ryan to discuss the three levels of martial arts, how surviving the 2004 tsunami changed his life, and what he believes is the highest form of strength.Jet Li is a martial artist, actor, philanthropist, film producer, and author. He became the youngest national martial arts champion in Chinese history at twelve years old and went on to become one of the most internationally recognized Chinese film stars of all time, with roles in Shaolin Temple, Once Upon a Time in China, Fist of Legend, Hero, Fearless, Romeo Must Die, Lethal Weapon 4, The Expendables, and Disney's live-action Mulan.Beyond film, Jet has spent more than thirty years studying Buddhism and has devoted much of his life to philanthropy. After surviving the 2004 Indian Ocean tsunami with his family, he founded One Foundation, a charitable organization focused on disaster relief, mental health, and grassroots giving. His new book is Beyond Life and Death: The Way of True Freedom.Follow Jet Li on Instagram | @jetli

For the 200th episode of Missing in Action: Originally titled Drunken Master II and released in 1994, it would later hit America in 2000 as Legend of Drunken Master. Jackie Chan was born to be a world famous star, and this sequel to the the 1978 film (also starring Chan), sees him return as folk hero Wong Fei Hung (also played by Jet Li in the far more dramatic wuxia film Once Upon a Time in China.) DISCLAIMER: Language and Spoilers!LEGEND OF DRUNKEN MASTER (aka, DRUNKEN MASTER II)dir.

Diese Episode stammt ursprünglich aus den Zeiten des Fratzengeballer-Podcasts und wurde vor rund sechs Jahren von Sergej Bjakow und mir aufgezeichnet. Da wir die Besprechung nach wie vor für hörenswert halten, geben wir ihr bei ACTIONKULT ein zweites Leben.Im Martial-Arts-Klassiker „Fist of Legend“ aus dem Jahr 1994 kehrt Chen Zhen (Jet Li) ins von Krieg und Spannungen geprägte Shanghai zurück, um den Tod seines Meisters aufzuklären. Schon bald stößt er auf eine Verschwörung, die weit über einen gewöhnlichen Kampf zwischen rivalisierenden Schulen hinausgeht.Wir sprechen über die beeindruckenden Kampfszenen, die Choreografie, die historische Einbettung des Films und die Frage, warum viele Fans „Fist of Legend“ zu den besten Werken von Jet Li zählen.

Matt and Jordan punch their tickets to an alternate reality to review Ladies First, the new Netflix comedy starring Sacha Baron Cohen and Rosamund Pike. They break down the film's (mostly good!) relentless barrage of gags, its terrifyingly plausible marketing pitches, and whether it successfully navigates the edgy tightrope of workplace comedy. But before they talk Ladies First, they have to talk about leaving the couch. Matt recounts his mind-bending, leaf-in-the-face trip to the Las Vegas Sphere watching The Wizard of Oz, while Jordan counters with an equally dramatic story about his allergy-inflicted screening ofThe Mandalorian and Grogu at his local AMC. For Rec Seg!, the multiversal madness continues as the duo pairs Ladies First with Jet Li martial arts mayhem and surrealist cinema from Fellini. Plus, a listener writes in looking for a sleek, under-the-radar romantic thriller, prompting two very different caper recommendations. Finally, Producer Sam takes over the board as "Dungeon Master" to premier a brand-new, slow-teasing visual trivia game called Strip Poster.

On this week’s episode of More Than Money, Rob Gerrie and Dave Popowich look at Jet Li planning for retirement and Stephen Colbert preparing for the end of The Late Show, exploring what these career transitions can teach us about purpose, identity, and what comes next. Then, Dr. Valerie Taylor, Professor and Head of the Department of Psychiatry at the University of Calgary, joins the show to discuss the mindset shift that can come with retirement. Next, Brendan Pansky, Director of Training & Development at True North Mortgage, explains how falling house prices may delay retirement for Canadians counting on their home as part of their plan. To close the show, Rob and Dave ask whether “Do I have enough?” is really the right retirement question, and why planning should focus on the life you want your money to support.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

By the time we arrived at Episode #149 of Fear and Loathing in Cinema Podcast, Gerarduary, the sacred month in which we collectively reflect on the brawny altar of Gerard Butler was breathing its final, heroic breaths, we chose to close it out not with subtlety or restraint, but with Tomb Raider: The Cradle of Life (2003). This is a movie whose title alone sounds like it was generated by shaking a box of rejected Dan Brown novels. This is not to be confused with Cradle 2 the Grave, a distinction worth making if only to reassure listeners that Jet Li will not be drop-kicking anyone through a stained-glass window. The post Episode #149 – Tomb Raider: The Cradle of Life (2003) first appeared on Boomstick Comics.

This week we are discussing the 2002 wuxia epic: Hero (英雄). Join us as we talk about the stunning visuals, colorful chapters, understanding martial arts films, political readings, Indy's love of Tony Leung (and most of the cast, really), Chinese history, and a bunch of other things I've already forgotten. This episode was originally released on January 13, 2025.   I Love This You Should Too is hosted by Samantha and Indy Randhawa   Hero (英雄, Yīngxióng) is a 2002 wuxia martial arts film directed, co-written, and produced by Zhang Yimou, and starring Jet Li, Tony Leung Chiu-wai, Maggie Cheung, Zhang Ziyi, Donnie Yen and Chen Daoming. The cinematography was by Christopher Doyle, and the musical score composed by Tan Dun. The film was nominated for an Academy Award for Best Foreign Language Film at the 75th Academy Awards. The historical background of the film refers to the Warring States Period in ancient China, when China was divided into seven states. In 227–221 BC, the Qin state was about to unify the other six states, assassins from the six states were sent to assassinate the king of Qin. One of the most famous incidents was Jing Ke's attempted assassination of the King of Qin.

Little disrespect to Gordon Chan in the title of this episode, I admit. Jet Li did not direct this one. But, really, no one showed up to this event for Gordon Chan. He did a good job, don't get me wrong. But this is a Jet Li movie. And what a Jet Li movie it is.... "So, it's about energy. But tell me something, does a rock have as much energy as an opponent would?" [Slices a leaf floating in air with hand]

Lethal Weapon 4 (1998) Full Movie Reaction, Breakdown, Commentary & Spoiler Review! — with hosts John Humphrey & Aaron Alexander diving into the explosive fourth and final chapter of the iconic buddy-cop franchise that ups the stakes with international crime, brutal martial arts, and one last ride for Riggs and Murtaugh. Directed by Richard Donner (Superman, The Goonies), Lethal Weapon 4 reunites Mel Gibson (Mad Max, Braveheart) as the unhinged but lethal Martin Riggs and Danny Glover (Predator 2, The Color Purple) as the perpetually exhausted Roger Murtaugh, now grappling with retirement, fatherhood, and the realization that the world refuses to slow down with him. When a case involving human trafficking and Triad smuggling escalates, the duo finds themselves up against a far more disciplined and dangerous enemy than ever before. John & Aaron break down the film's standout moments: the jaw-dropping opening shootout, the introduction of Jet Li (Hero, Romeo Must Die) as the terrifying villain Wah Sing Ku, whose lightning-fast hand-to-hand combat redefines the franchise's action, the escalating Triad conspiracy, and the emotional throughline of family that anchors the chaos. They also highlight the expanded roles of Rene Russo as Lorna Cole, Joe Pesci as the endlessly unlucky Leo Getz, and Chris Rock as Detective Lee Butters, whose comedic energy injects fresh chaos into the team.

Witness the film that PROVES that George Lucas traveled into the future in order to steal the secrets of martial arts success. He brought it back to the past and profited. With his ferocious nature, he bent the fabric of space/time, all so that Jet Li could become Luke Skywalker. From then to before and now to now.

Apparently, we've got a lot to say about Jet Li's Hong Kong/American debut in 1989's Dragon Fight. 

185 - The One Jet Li's The One arrives at the height of early-2000s sci-fi action, blending multiverse theory with high-velocity martial-arts spectacle. The film follows Gabriel Yulaw, a former agent of the Multiverse Authority who has discovered a dangerous loophole in reality: by traveling to parallel universes and killing alternate versions of himself, he absorbs their life energy and grows exponentially stronger. With only one counterpart left to eliminate, Yulaw sets his sights on Gabe Law, a mild-mannered sheriff who has no idea why he's suddenly the target of a superhuman assassin who looks exactly like him. Though The One was met with mixed-to-negative reviews on release, it has since settled into a cult-favorite niche. For some, it's a fascinating precursor to today's wave of multiverse storytelling, previewing themes and tropes that would become mainstream decades later. For others, it's simply a blast of nostalgia: a lean, eccentric action film that embraces its own excess. Whether admired for its ambition or enjoyed for its unapologetic pulp energy, The One remains a distinctive entry in Jet Li's filmography and a snapshot of a moment when sci-fi action cinema was boldly — and sometimes bizarrely — reinventing itself.
