Movies Favourite Jackie Chan Movie From the US

[revoltub]

It would be closer if rush hour 2 was also in the poll

Not gonna lie I think i like 2 more than 1. Ricky Tan is a great villain

Agreed about the villain, I don't even remember the villain from the first

I liked The Foreigner

The Foreigner was like Rambo First Blood but in the city.

A lot of love for Rush hour. I saw it years ago and don't remember enjoying it.
But I do hate Chris Tucker.

Whoever posted that US audiences were robbed of the real Jackie Chan was bang on.

I didn't vote for The Protector as I missed it on the list, but I remember liking it as a kid.

I saw The Foreigner with low expectations and was pleasantly surprised. That was my pick.

I don't think this was released in America but I saw it overseas when I was doing MT in Thailand. It isn't great but it is hilarious watching Jacky Chan messing with hookers and being a shitbag. Apparently that is closer to his real life persona. He is some kind of hoodlum behind the scenes.

Protector is the only one for me, Jackie and Danny is the pairing we never knew we needed

add to the mix big hairy muffs and sugarfoot, you got a classic

My problem with The Protector is the Danny Aiello character was pretty useless if I remember correctly. He got his ass kicked so much in that movie and I did not like the ending that much.

bro puts rush hour as the first option lol

 

[Bob Gray]

I remember The Protector had tons of bush, so 12 year old me picks that one.

Rush Hour

Also not sure The Foreigner counts tbh

Rush Hour

It's directed by Martin Campbell, it counts.

So? He's a Kiwi and it was made in London

Because it was made in China and it was shot in Vancouver lol welcome to the wonderful magic of movies lol

It was chans first movie that finally did well in the US but its a Hong Kong movie. Look it up if you dont believe me.

Shit. I didn't know this either, and that was my answer as well. Thanks for the info. So defaults to Rush Hour then.

I watched 1 hr of The Protector and only one brief bush scene by the massage parlor smalled boobed fully nude woman. It's on Peacock.

lol may need to add to the title of this thread “besides Rush Hour”

 

[Plissken]

The Protector had the fights (one for the Hong Kong version that Jackie Chan directed, one for the U.S. version with the U.S. team directing the fight) with Bill Superfoot Wallace and had that 80's vigilante vibe due to James Glickenhaus directing it, so that's my pick.

Did you really think this would end up any other way

Shanhai Noon is really in no way inferior to Rush Hour, maybe a little bit better. People dont tend to like it as much though which I think is because of its setting.

It's not as good as rush hour and it has nothing to do with the setting

Rumble in the Bronx which unfortunately isn't on the poll. That film is amazing.
