Better martial arts movie: The Raid or Ong Bak

Haven't seen the raid but they both seem to be in the same vein.

Raid and it's not even close. Ong bak is good but the action scenes in raid and raid 2 will spoil you. You won't be able to watch action movies the same.

Ong Bak easily. The Raid isn't strictly martial arts. There's a lot of shooting too. Probably more of that than fighting.

Ip man

Ip man is not an option. I specifically chose those movies for a reason.

I can't tell if you're being serious. Have you seen the Raid movies. Dude has a gun for the first five minutes and ditches it for a knife and machete the first chance he gets.

No I'm joking. The nonstop shoot outs the first half hour of the movie really showcase some great martial arts skills.

I wasn't really all that into Ong Bak. Didn't enjoy it very much.
Ip Man and Iron Monkey are legit. If you haven't seen either, check them out.
The Raid is a whole different kind of movie and it is awesome. Watch it and love it.

The Protector is better than Ong Bak imo. If you're a Tony Jaa fan and haven't seen it I highly recommend you at least watch the fight scenes.

Fist of Legend from Jet Li

Fist of Legend is my favorite martial arts movie followed by Kung Fu Hustle and Ip Man. And for me, I consider Crouching Tiger..... to be an action drama rather than a martial arts film.

This one is a no brainer. The Raid is a GREAT movie period. Ong Bak had some cool stunts and one fight scene that was really awesome, but The Raid is one of the best action movies ever made.

The Raid.
I like The Protector better than Ong Bak as far as Tony Jaa movies go. The tracking shot up the staircase in that movie is insane.

Didn't care for Ong Bak. The Raid even less. However, I do consider Ong Bak 2 to be among the best martial arts films I've seen. Beautiful production value, exhilarating choreography.
