Hey all i am a die hard Jet Li fan and have seen nearly every movie of his um i need help identifying a
movie he starred in a while ago i remember a few things about it um he had a traditional ponytail that he kinda used as a whip to hit ppl with he said some weird things to justify getting involved with a dragon  
festival something about there are 3 kinds of people in this world those who do nothing all day those who talk a lot but never act and those who do act, oh and he also got into a fight with a police official cuz the officials girlfriend started getting friendly with him. im sry if this is all kinda vague but i remember clearly that it was jet li who did that movie any help would be greatly appreciated oh and there was also something going on with the people not wanting opium in the country anymore but thats about all i remember.

It's been a while since I watched my collection, but it sounds like The Last Hero in China.

When you said dragon festival, my first reaction was The Legend of Fong Sai Yuk.  But then you mentioned opium and you lost me.  Could be one of the Once Upon A Time in China movies.

What about The Legend of The Red Dragon/New Legend of Shaolin?
