figure out this damn movie title! it's a dubbed kung fu film, i i THINK it either stars jet li or chow yun fat

there's this old lady, and shes the hero's mom. shes trying to escort kids to safety, and they go down an alley to get away, only to be stopped by man with needles rumored to have incredibly deadly poison.

so, fight breaks out, and old lady and the psycho guy get into a slowmotion needle throwing fight in the alley way, and the old lady wins. she falls over though, and her dub actress says something along the lines of "i guess granny couldnt catch every one of them." as she had been hit by one, in pain, while in the arms of the kids.

b:shocked

help me figure this **** out!

Going sage is like drunken sex, at first she may look good, but when you wake up the next morning; you'll look at her and go WHAT HAVE I DONE.

    Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon?

    It's been a while since I watched it, but I'm pretty sure that's the one you described. Plus, it has Yun-Fat Chow in it.

    the movie you are thinking of is Legend of the Red Dragon. It stars Jet Li.

    would you happen to know when the fight takes place?

    In Legend of the Red Dragon, the needle fight is with the seamstress using needles and thread. That's doesn't match with Waffle's description. I'm pretty sure it's Crouching tiger based on the description, but will have to watch the movie again to find the scene.

    ok, so it's not Crouching Tiger. I got to the scene (1:45) and it's not the right one obviously.

    I do know the scene you speak of, but I can't recall the film right now.
