This man speaks the truth - I really wonder how many people here actually watched JC's pre-Hollywood output.

I would even go farther even Drunken Master II was a bit iffy. I mean, the Andy Lau story went nowhere, Jackie Chan being clearly too old for the role he was playing, and the strange thing with Anita Mui being his...stepmom.

The Shanghai flicks are pretty good. I’d never rank ‘em over Drunken Master II but they’re better than the Rush Hours IMO.

Star Trek Generations was hot garbage in so many ways...but the destruction of the Enterprise and the saucer section's crash-landing was fantastic. That moment got applause on opening night, and deservedly so.

I use the cup holder CC. If she uses, try to sit in the middle section so she doesn't break her neck trying to read and keep up with the action at the same find.

Infinity Pool was a massive, awkward, boring disappointment, but Mia Goth's performance was amazing. Especially the scene>! where she was on the hood of the car that was chasing Skarsgård. !<

For the pacing of each scene, yes it would have been too much running time spent on both scenes.

Napoleon Dynamite was the most obnoxious, unfunny comedy I’ve ever seen, but Jon Heder is a good actor who went all out with his performance.

Yeah, it's crazy how nimble old man Jackie still is. I recently watched Kung-fu Yoga. It was overall an unfocused mess of a movie, and the fight scenes were quite toned-down in comparison to his early-to-mid Hong Kong days, but damn if they still weren't some fun, engaging fights.
