Jet Li does a flying jump kick onto Netflix’s streaming service

Eagle-eyed martial arts fans who happen to own a Netflix account may have noticed that a significant portion of Jet Li’s back catalog has been slowly added to the website’s streaming service. It appears that the Weinstein Company, who purchased a great deal of Hong Kong action movies during the 90′s, have once again been divvying up their films to Netflix. Cinema buffs have long resented the Weinsteins for their treatment of Asian cinema – Jet Li alone saw some of his most beloved features edited, dubbed, and retitled only to be unceremoniously dumped on DVD.

For instance: My Father is a Hero (one of our personal favorites) became The Enforcer, The Bodyguard from Beijing became The Defender. The good news about these titles being added to Netflix is that they’re now accompanied by their original Cantonese language tracks and streaming with HD quality prints.

Also new to the streaming service is two of Jet Li’s earliest endeavors, 1982′s Shaolin Temple and 1984′s Kids From Shaolin, both of which the Weinstein Company has never actually released on DVD or Blu-ray in North America.

Titles currently available:

-1982′s The Shaolin Temple

-1984′s Kids From Shaolin

-1986′s Born to Defense

-The Legend (AKA 1993′s Fong Sai-yuk)

-The Legend 2 (AKA 1993′s Fong Sai-yuk II)

-The Defender (AKA 1994′s The Bodyguard from Beijing)

-1994′s Fist of Legend

-The Enforcer (AKA 1995′s My Father is a Hero)
