Watch Free Kung Fu Movies In English

Enter the Dragon (1973) Bemoaning the lack of availability of certain films on home video in the UK definitely falls into the category of first world problems. Yet, if there were ever a reason for the discerning genre fan to fill out multiple entries for the Green Card Lottery, quit their job and emigrate to the United States of Region 1, it surely lies in the abundance of old-school kung fu movies on DVD and Blu-ray lining the shelves and warehouses of retailers across the pond. That said, it’s not all doom and gloom for British fans looking to get their wushu kicks without taking such drastic measures. Sure, the vast Shaw Brothers library managed by Celestial Pictures may have barely trickled into the UK market, but there are notable examples readily available, as well as offerings from that other kung fu powerhouse (and pretender to the Shaw Bros throne),. Even so, the best way to experience titles from China’s golden age of genre cinema is obviously on the big screen. BFI Southbank may not feature the authentically sticky carpets and plumes of cigarette smoke that characterised the 42nd Street dives of kung fu’s 70s heyday, but at least the reels are guaranteed to play in the correct order.
