What are your top three martial arts movies?

Anything from any decade.

There are so many to choose from, but mine are:

1) Fighter in the Wind. - True story about a Korean martial artist who took on the best Japanese schools and won. The on screen fights were all full contact.

2) Ong Bak, the Beginning. - Tony Jaa is a magician with his multiple styles and this film shows his talent off perfectly.

3) Shogun Assassin (Lone Wolf series). - This guy is a real life Samurai and you often have to rewind the movie to see what he did, he is that quick. I'm sure that his opponents were convicts that he actually killed for the camera. Brilliantly done if not.

I hate anything with excessive wire work or CGI.

Update:

Bruce Lee is definitely in my top five and it was hard to leave him out. I like Fist of Fury the best of his films. Also Fist of Legend with Jet Li who pays homage to this movie.
