Before You Watch The Video Below, First A little Background About Fist of Legend
Fist of Legend is a 1994 Hong Kong martial arts film directed and co-written by Gordon Chan, featuring action choreography by Yuen Woo-ping, and produced by Jet Li, who also stars in the lead role of Chen Zhen. It is a remake of the 1972 Bruce Lee film Fist of Fury. Set in the Shanghai International Settlement in 1937, the film follows Chen as he investigates his old master Huo Yuanjia’s death at the hands of the
Imperial Japanese occupation forces. The film co-stars Chin Siu-ho, Yasuaki Kurata, Shinobu Nakayama, Billy Chow and Paul Chun. It was released by Golden Harvest on 22 December 1994.
Fist of Legend is widely regarded as one of Lee’s best films, with a box office gross of HK$14,785,382 during a downturn in the Hong Kong film industry.
In South Korea, the film sold 181,760 tickets in Seoul.
In the United Kingdom, the film (released as Jet Li’s Fist of Legend) was watched by 1.1 million viewers on television in 2004, making it the year’s seventh most-watched foreign-language film on television (below six other Hong Kong action films). In 1997, the first DVD was released by Ritek in Taiwan, which fans later reported to be an “uncut” version.
This has been a widely held misconception – whilst this version does carry some more footage (as a Taiwanese version), it is in turn missing a few moments that the Hong Kong version has. Cine Asia released a Blu-ray version 22 March 2010 in the UK and on 20 April 2010 in USA.
