In the 1980s and 1990s, it can be described as the "golden age" of action movies in Hong Kong, China.

If martial arts stars always stand in front of the stage and shine, then the behind-the-scenes heroes who reflect these "fighting stars" are those stuntmen and stuntmen who stand behind the superstars. They and the stars are like light and shadow – although in the dark, they are an indispensable part of action movies. It is their selfless dedication that allows batch after batch of martial arts stars to shine on the screen one after another, and "Dragon Tiger Martial Artist" has become famous.

Dragon and tiger martial artist, never say no


The movie is a story of blood and sweat set in the "Dragon and Tiger Martial Arts". "They are the cornerstones, without them, there would be no glory of Hong Kong action movies", Jackie Chan knows this well.


Perhaps no one knows better than Jackie Chan, who has starred in more than 100 films and is now internationally renowned, how difficult it is to be a martial artist. At the Jackie Chan International Action Film Week, which was initiated by Jackie Chan and has been held for six times, in addition to the regular awards such as best director and actor, he also specially set up awards for these behind-the-scenes heroes such as best stunt awards and best fight scene design awards.

It is also because of the feelings of the Dragon Tiger Martial Artist that when the director of "Dragon Horse Spirit" came up with this story that matched his own experience, it is said that Jackie Chan was moved to tears after reading the script and immediately decided to join the film.



Box office king, peak showdown


"Spirit of Dragon Horse" is an absolute "killer" than Jackie Chan and "two generations of box office kings" for the first big screen collaboration, and they also symbolize the "peak showdown" of two generations of action actors.


One is "Lao Pao’er", an action movie with 60 years of hard work in the industry, and the other is "Wolf Warrior", a new era of "those who commit crimes against me in China will be punished even if they are far away" – both are famous for filming "don’t want to die" and "get bruised all over the place as soon as you shoot". The two action movie stars jointly play mentors and apprentices, focusing on "action directors" and "dragon and tiger martial artists", which perfectly interprets the "passing down of fire" in Chinese action movies.


It is said that in order to shoot "The Spirit of Dragon Horse", Jackie Chan postponed knee surgery, gave nine injections to close, and every action scene was really beaten, and the pain-relieving effect was closed for half a year, which was exhausted in 20 days. And he still brought a lot of thrills to the audience in the film, such as the dangerous action of sliding down the stairs, and still went into battle in person. "I have a good foundation, and I can do moves that a normal 69-year-old can’t do."



The real "Jackie Chan" movie


The director of "Dragon Horse Spirit", Yang Zi, is a veteran fan of Jackie Chan, and intentionally or unintentionally sets up a large number of famous scenes in the film to restore Jackie Chan’s screen career.

Guo Qilin’s character is called "Naihua", which comes from the lawyer Naihua played in China.


The classic dish in "Police Story 3: Super Cop", "Civet Stewed Fish Whip," has also made a comeback, which is sure to make fans smile.

Most of the film’s stories take place in the studio, so there are various costume scenes. Therefore, we will see:

The long shirt in the middle, the short shirt in the middle, the ancient costume in the middle, the tribal style in the middle, the skateboarding boy in the middle, the classic hat-throwing action in the middle, etc., took turns to appear, and everywhere was a memory killing, which made fans hooked.
