Bessie Smyth Great story, amazing characters, superb action, enthralling cinematography. Yes, this is something I am glad I spent money on.
fanan450 Before ( rush hour ) , before (Shanghai noon) , there was a good Jackie chan movie's called ( rumble in the bronx ) , a mix of action and comedy , some people will think the story and specially the ending was (stupid or dull) , but i found it so funny and entertaining , all fights scene and Hoover chasing scene, omg ! that's really some action that i never seen lately , come on ! this is Jackie ! you will never be bored watching him , even when his age will be 90 years ! he even broke his leg in this movie just for you entertain !! , so I really recommend it to all Jackie's fans . 8/10
jwwassel So good dude. That hovercraft chase really brings it home. When I'm confused in life, and don't know where to turn I often think to myself WWJD. What would Jackie do? Well he'd steal a hovercraft, that's what he'd do. He makes survival a fun and visually stimulating experience. It's important that we all take a moment out of our day, step back and think to ourselves "How can I be a little more like Jackie?"
a_chinn After several unsuccessful attempts to introduce Jackie Chan to American audiences (i.e. "Battle Creek Brawl, "Cannonball Run," "The Protector"), this is the one that finally made him a name in the United States. What made this one work compared to those earlier attempts is that this was a Hong Kong production where Jackie had creative control, which allowed him to do what he does best; mixing martial arts, comedy, and jaw-dropping stunts. It probably also helped that the film was set in New York City with a largely Anglo cast, though the movie was clearly filmed elsewhere given the mountainous Vancouver, BC rockies surrounding this imaginary NYC. The story revolves around Jackie coming to town and helping protect a shopkeeper from neighborhood thugs. It's basically "Death Wish 3" but with Jackie Chan. The fight sequences are amazing, the humor is funny, and the stunt work is amazing (including Jackie jumping between buildings without a harness, Jackie riding a motorcycle over the top of parked cars,, and Jackie being run over by a hovercraft!). The story and characters are all pretty paper thin, but Jackie is spectacular!
namashi_1 In this fast-paced action-packed ride, 2016 Recipient of The Honourary Academy-Award, Jackie Chan displays excellence. With mesmerizing comfort in material arts, genuine feeling in light moments & comic timing so neat, that only Jim Carrey could envy, Chan is an absolute delight in this 1990's blockbuster. I revisited it after years & still found myself in awe.'Rumble in the Bronx' Synopsis: A young man visiting and helping his uncle in New York City finds himself forced to fight a street gang and the mob with his martial art skills.'Rumble in the Bronx' is crisp, violent, funny & entirely engaging. The story moves on a feverish pace & the series of events that happen with our unbeatable hero, are arresting all through. The Writing is neat & Stanley Tong's Direction stays to the point. The Action-Sequences/Martial Arts Combats are FANTASTIC. Chan is at the top of his game here, and as mentioned before, his excellence rules the show. The supporting cast too, put in sincere, committed performances.On the whole, This one remains a winner!
