?Grandmasters? will see the likes of Bruce Lee, Jackie Chan, Jet Li and Donnie Yen in the best of Kung Fu master pieces ever made.
The movie fest starts with Enter the Dragon, the most successful merging of both Hong Kong and American cinema in the martial arts film genre till date. What more can be said of the man whom millions consider one of the greatest action stars of all time. From the opening scene to the final fight scene it is Bruce Lee at his best.
Action and Comedy are a lethal duo if you have Jackie Chan and Chris Tucker kicking in. High on action and laughter is Rush Hour 2, the sequel that brings Carter and Lee back and starting off where the first Rush Hour left off - in China. Rush Hour 2 is one of the funniest movies ever made.

Martial Arts fans get a chance to pay homage to the legendary Ip Man, the master of the masters in the next movie in line, Ip Man 2 - a semi-biographical film on the life of Ip Man, who is living under the iron fist of the British colonial rule. Ip Man 2 focuses on action, delivering a steady stream of expertly staged fight scenes.
