3.0 out of 5 stars Sort-of a Documentary!, December 3, 2001

This review is from: Jackie Chan: The Invincible Fighter (DVD)

I was a little disappointed in this DVD. It had the potential to be quite good, but "missed". I thought it was in English, but it is Cantonese/Mandarin with English S/T, not in itself bad if the documentary had been good. Mainly, it is various martial arts scenes from Jackie's Lo Wei film period (c. 1975-1978). The scenes are very good, all wide screen so you see everything. However, the Chinese commentators have tried to be "clever" and linked the scenes with a fake "story" on Jackie's training in various styles of kung fu. If you know the films the scenes are from (and I have seen them all) this type of treatment becomes very irritating. It could have been done so much better (ie. a REAL dissertation on Jackie's unique development of combination of various styles of martial arts and comedy). Not a bad DVD, if only for the opportunity to see some brilliant martial art action in wide screen, but not a must see for Jackie fans.

This review is from: Jackie Chan: The Invincible Fighter (DVD)

Now I got this in a 3-pack, it is classic kung fu volume 1 or 2 I can't remember. They are kinda sloppy presentations of 3 bad but not the worst movies. And they only made vloumes 1 and 2.

This movie is sot of a compilation of jackie's first ten movies(all before drunken master) and luckily it mainly shows you stuff from fearless hyena and snake and crane martial arts. They even show a bunch of final fights. And the narrator is hilarious. Because this is not a good movie I will give away his last line of the movie. Jackie chan, top action star, he really deserves all of this.

The interview that comes on this disc is short and about rush hour, but I believe it to be a pretty rare interview. It was jackie's take on rush hour, before it came out. And it is done completely in cantonese, which kind of sucks, but there are good subtitles throughout the whole movie. Since nobody will prbably ever buy this, I'll give ya a little snipit. He says that he can't understand any of the jokes in the movie and talks about chris tucker. This is a great perspective cause he was really scared about the movie coming out and probably thought it was gonna be as bad as all of his other american movies. But finally jackie chan, top action star, he really deserves all this.

This review is from: Jackie Chan: The Invincible Fighter (DVD)

This is a Documentary about Chan's early films and his rise to stardom. It's not a re-name of one of his earlier films.
