相较于李小龙的生猛和成龙的拼命，李连杰的功夫片里:除了有武学正宗遗留的大家痕迹之外，更多的是他深受传统中国文化熏陶得来的思辨——一种不露声色的儒雅。在《黄飞鸿》、《方世玉》系列电影中，这一点最为明显。他一边用舞蹈般华美的招数戏打对手，一边丰富着中华武学的灵魂脊索，先礼后兵，后发制人，点到即止，招招留情，一次次将武艺与侠义完美地结合，既打败了敌手，又打败了观众。 Jet Li also played the title role in _Wong Fei-hung (1991)_ , and when he tells the story about how he stated a fake name to the police officers, he says he gave his name as "Wong ...", strikes his trademark Wong Fei-Hung pose, and Wong's theme song ("Under the General's Orders") starts playing. Instead of "Wong ... Fei-Hung", he says "Wong ... Jing", referring to director Jing Wong. Jet Li gives the police the fake name "Yuen Kwai" - the film's director. This was the first time Jet Li worked with Corey Yuen.They have since become close friends and work together on many projects. When Sai Yuk is curling his mother"s hair and says that he can speak English ("wonderful"), Mother Fong asked where he learned it. He tells her that he learned from Josephine Siao, who actually plays Mother Fong in the film.
