Awesome People - Best Action - Martial Arts - Super Kicks - Amazing Must Watch

We love the action, the cheesy lines and of course the fights. But this excitement that Martial Arts movie fans find is heavily attributed to the actor and his persona; the character he or she plays.
Memorable characters are a massive chunk of what make movies iconic and what build careers for actors.
Most of the world’s most well known martial arts actors are known for particular movies or characters that made them stand out above the rest and cement them into our minds, so let’s have a look at the top 50 that have cemented themselves as ‘iconic’ in the world of Martial Arts.

Being the Bruce Lee fanatic I am, I had to mention this character first. Ni kuang created this character for Bruce Lee’s Fist of Fury in 1972 – one of Bruce Lee’s most iconic performances.
Since then Chen Zhen as been revived and re cast into several movies and TV projects. But he has most notably been played by Bruce Lee in Fist of Fury, Jet Li in Fist of Legend and Donnie Yen in Legend of the Fist: The Return of Chen Zhen.

Kill Bill is itself an Iconic Martial Arts film with endless references and appearances from top martial artists – with ‘The Bride’ played by Uma Thurman right at the forefront.
The Bride herself references Bruce Lee with her yellow and black tracksuit similar to Game of Death. As far as American made martial arts characters go, the Bride is very memorable and stands as example of martial arts movies involving strong female leads in mainstream cinema.

He’s a powerful swordsman who is completely blind!
Zatoichi is a name about as iconic as they get as he is the main character in the Japanese movie series of the same name.
In total, Zatoichi has appeared in 26 films and even did a cross over with the popular Chinese ‘One Armed Swordsman’ series called Zatoichi meets the One Armed Swordsman.

Perhaps better known as Lone Wolf & Cub.
From a Manga to a movie series, Lone Wolf & Cub, or the characters Ogami and his son Daigoro have become iconic within Martial Arts films as part of another popular long running, and highly successful series of 6 films (with the seventh, Shogun Assassin being a retelling).
A top story is told in this film but more so, the awesomely fake gore of Japanese martial arts film is what makes these movies stand out. If you’ve never seen a Lone Wolf & Cub movie, start off Shogun Assassin.

No doubt about it, he is the most complete fighter in the world!
Whilst the Undisputed films haven’t been massively successful financially, Boyka himself has a cult following and countless tribute videos all over YouTube thanks to Scott Adkins portrayal of such a memorable character.
With the crackdown on piracy, Boyka could see the financial success he deserves when Scott Adkins & Isaac Florentine release Boyka: Undisputed 4. Can’t wait!
If you’ve never seen these movies I highly recommend starting with Undisputed 2.

The Raid. ‘Nuff said.
When you have a movie with as much impact as The Raid, the lead is going to become a memorable character. Iko Uwais is now a mainstream martial arts star thanks to his role in Gareth’s Evans Raid movies.
Obviously, if haven’t seen these films than you better give yourself a kick in the ass and watch them. They absolutely rock!

Mad Dog! The crazy bad guy form the first Raid movie is that memorable bad guy you love to watch. I honestly couldn’t wait to watch his every scene in these films and his persona, intensity and general ruthlessness contributed heavily to the tone and feel of the film.
Another top reason to watch these movies!

You that huge action star Jason Statham? Expendables? Crank?
Well it all start with his role as Frank Martin, from the Transporter movies. Frank Martin is a guy who “transports” things for a predetermined fee.
But when things go wrong (they always do) he pulls out his martial arts skill and beats the shit out of everyone. Nice.
This role is an iconic one for one of action’s biggest names (Statham), so it’s in the list!

Michael Jai White again!
This time we’re dipping into the film Blood & Bone for MJW’s character simply named ‘Bone’. A lot of people came to know Michael Jai White through his role as Bone and it’s one of the more serious characters he plays.

You’ve seen the Matrix right?
I was tossing up between Neo and Agent Smith but I think we all know who takes the title – the bad ass self duplicating Agent Smith – who constantly picks fights he can’t win with the ‘one’ himself.
In saying this, many characters in this franchise are iconic – Neo, Agent Smith, Morpheous and even Seraph are terrific Martial Arts characters.
