Fighter in the Wind (2004)

The film is actually Korean,I initially got a doubt if its a Japanese or a Korean movie since the film revolves around Japan ;-)

If you feel bullied by your surrounding people find how to over come your fears through this true story.

Yes this is a true story of a fighting legend and its very inspirational with stunning martial arts choreography.

The film begins with around a young Korean Taekwondo competitor who arrives in Japan near the end of World War II with hopes of being a fighter pilot, but he finds himself on the streets battling racism, organized

crime, occupying American servicemen, and his own fear of failure as a martial artist.

The director pictures the hero's fear on his survival on rival gangs until he was saved by another street fighter.The hero learns few fighting techniques from him, but not for long when his teacher is slained in a bloody rivalry. Agonised and with anger the hero goes to exile in a mountain.He retires to the wilderness for two years to train his body in the art of karate and returns to take on the world.

Fighter in the Wind is a dramatic and stylized portrayal of the life of Kyokushin karate founder Masutatsu Oyama, or as he is known in this movie by his original Korean name, Choi Baedal. The man becomes a legend in '60s almost defeating all major martial arts masters. He even gets in to bull wrestling and gets the power to shatter the bulls head with his bear hands.Whom the New York Times declared in 1961 to be "the toughest man in the world," it falls far short of giving an accurate portrayal of someone whose real-life exploits are more fascinating than any fiction.

Fighter in the Wind is an immensely entertaining martial arts movie that's full of breath-taking action and heart. Its a movie worth watching
