    I though Shanghai Noon was quite enjoyable.
    The Rush Hours are ok too.

    yea those 2 mofies are ok, i didn't like RH2 much but 1 was good!

    but still

    Police Story 1-4
    Wheels On Meals
    Who Am I
    The Armour Of God 1-2

    those mofies are much better!

    The Tuxedo - sucked
    The Medallion - sucked

    Jackie started using too much special effects, and gadgets

    Yeah - 'Who Am I?' and 'Mr. Nice Guy' were the last decent ones that I've seen. Jackie running down Dame Street was priceless but, otherwise, he really stiffed us with The Medallion (he made up for it a bit by voting for an Irish Miss World :) ).

    I wish I had seen 'Gorgeous' from 1999. Jackie, Tony Leung and Shu Qi in the one movie - that had to be good. Some serious acting talent there.

    Gorgeous, it's not bad. Certainly not one of his best, but I havent watched it in a long time so I can't really remember much about it.
    Drunken Master and Project A are two of his best imo.

    Gorgeous is a nice movie!

    the fighting scenes are awesome!

    No problem with that. But he hasn't replaced the action with anything else - like good acting or a decent story.

    Jackie should retire. The man has made over a HUNDRED films. Apart from Shanghai Noon, 1 and 2 and Rush Hour, 1 and 2 series all his western movies have been poor to say the least.

    I never though much of his earlier stuff story wise but the stunts were indeed awsome. His later hollywood stuff is ok at best tho. I though JC was just acting in the newer movies and didnt have much say over the control of them?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,985 ✭✭✭✭zAbbo


    his cartoon owns tho, he`s prolly busy in it. He draws all his own stunts
