![]() ![]() Sha Po Lang was still the point where the world finally began to seriously take notice of Yen's talents. Yen fully pushed action-movie MMA through the roof with 2007's Flash Point, before finally achieving international fame in taking on his most famed role of Bruce Lee's mentor in 2008's Ip Man, which elevated martial arts films even more with his use of Wing Chun. The stick and knife alley smackdown between Yen and Wu Jing is an electrifying weapons duel, while his final showdown with Sammo Hung was the clash of Hong Kong icons fans had waited decades to see, made that much better by Yen's adeptness in merging chokes, throws, and takedowns with the jump-spinning back-kicks that have long been Yen's calling card. I suoi ruoli più importanti sono stati quelli di Hawkman / Jackie, nella pellicola del 1996 Tai Chi Boxer, e quello di Kong Ko nel lungometraggio del 2006 Fatal Contact.A devoted UFC fan, Yen blended grappling techniques from Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu with his already eclectic background in Wushu, Tae Kwon Do, and other arts, and would forever change martial arts moviemaking.
