2. Drunken Master

Jackie Chan is renowned for performing all of his own film stunts and has appeared in well over 100 martial arts movies. However, Drunken Master is especially beloved by martial arts film fans for its unusual combination of kung fu and comedy. The film is considered Chan’s breakout role and helped to popularize the “drunken boxing” style of martial arts used by the title character.

As noted by IMDB, the film tells the story of a disobedient son — played by Jackie Chan — who is eventually molded into a martial arts expert by a “Drunken Master.”  The film’s classic redemption story is made even better by Chan’s gravity-defying martial arts abilities and an epic final battle with the main villain. For fans that can’t get enough drunken boxing action, there is Drunken Master II, also known as The Legend of Drunken Master, a 1994 follow-up film in which Chan reprises the same role.
