What's not to like about this incredible hour long documentary about the genesis of the Hong Kong martial arts film? Filled with great interviews (Jackie Chan, Sammo Hung, Cheng Pei Pei, Jet Li, John Woo, David Chiang, and others), amazing archival footage from the '20s and '40s, a black and white TV interview with Bruce Lee, and an astounding array of mind-boggling letterboxed and subtitled clips from the golden age of martial arts cinema, Chop Socky is one of the best film documentaries you're likely to see. As an extra added bonus, this made in Hong Kong film eschews the obligatory interview sequence with annoying motormouth Quentin Tarantino, who has to settle for two brief clips from Kill Bill Volume 2. The inclusion of these clips is a minor quibble (I lowered my rating from 10 to 9 as a result) and shouldn't put you off. This film keeps the focus where it belongs--the Chinese speaking creators of this remarkable genre.
