I just think that, ensemble-wise, Chow Yun-Fat was perfect for that role, esp. opposite Michelle Yeoh, next to whom Jet Li would have appeared too slight and feral.

Yeah, Chow Yun-Fat was perfectly cast in Crouching Tiger, although I could see/imagine Jet Li as effectively cast with Michele Yeoh in other roles. My favorite Jet Li film, or guilty pleasure if you prefer, is Kiss of The Dragon, where he co-starred with Bridget Fonda; it's an excellent edge-of-the-seat action flick with nice dramatic and occasionally comedic touches.

  If you liked Kiss of The Dragon you should try The Crimson Rivers .
  Content wise, it doesn�t have a great deal in common with KotD but it had a similar feel and that serious but quite silly style. It even had a random kung fu fight slapped in there.
