Our Top 10 Jackie Chan films

    By the mid -nineties, Chan had collected a substantial cult supporter in the US, thanks to the growing availability of his earlier films in the home video market, and eventually Mainstream Hollywood success achieved with Rumble in the Bronx (1995) and Rush hour (1998). In his later years, Chan left from Kungfu Comedies to more dramatic roles, including the 2010 remake of The karate child.

    Look, nobody watches classic Jackie Chan films for the plot, complex characterisations or darnchronization (which is often hilariously bad). We are here to admire the spectacular fighting choreography and stunning stunts, peppered with a generous portion of slapstick humor. His gift for changing ordinary objects into improvised weapons is part of his unique style, which I like to find object Foo name. Who could forget the hilarious chopstick and “emotional kung-fu” (for example, fighting during crying or laughing to expose the weaknesses of an opponent) in 1979 The fearless hyena? Chan even inspired the entire Parkour movement.

    Chan has broken several fingers and ribs in the course of his long career, not to mention both cheekbones, hips, breastbone, neck and ankle. He has a permanent hole in his skull due to an almost fatal injury. And he did it all for us entertainment. The least we can do is honor him on his 71st birthday. You can find our top 10 Jackie Chan films listed below in chronological order, with 30 years.
