If you havenβt seen "The New Legend of Shaolin" (1994) , you are missing out on some of the most wildly creative action cinema ever made.
Jet Li stars as Hung Hei-Kwun, a master on the run who carries a baby... and that baby just happens to be armed with a poisoned dagger and grenades. It sounds ridiculous on paper, but on screen? It is pure Wuxia magic.
And don't get me started on the "human horse" scene. Cinema peaked in the 90s.

A 10/10 classic that proves you can have high stakes and total absurdity in the same frame.
