Jet Li's acrobatic skills, strength, and quickness make him excitable and enjoyable to watch. Many of his fighting moves are difficult to emulate by others. This can be seen by the martial arts stunts performed in the movie The Matrix. If you look closely, a majority of the stunts will emulate those of Jet Li, but without his perfection and quickness. |
