Product Description Rumble in the Bronx (DVD)Jackie Chan (“Rush Hour” franchise, “Shanghai Noon”) stars as Ah Keung, a cop from Hong Kong who comes to New York City to attend his uncle's wedding. He plans a little relaxation, a little sightseeing and little work at the family grocery store. Somebody forgot to tell Ah that the grocery store sits in the middle of the South Bronx, America's toughest 'hood... and ground-zero of a crime war. Now, caught between the mob and a ruthless motorcycle gang, Ah shows--after inflicting much pain on gangsters all around--that this seemingly average guy is a world-class daredevil and martial arts master. Anita Mui ("The Legend of Drunken Master," "Ji ji") also stars as Elaine. Cantonese Language Film with English dubbed version.]]> desertcart.com Jackie Chan finally conquered America with Rumble in the Bronx. If the mildly contorted English dialogue sounds peculiarly foreign and disembodied (most of it is dubbed), and the mountains of Vancouver, BC don't convincingly double for the skyline of New York City, well, peculiarities like these actually contribute something to the movie's ingenuous charm. With his disarming smile and feline physicality, the compact Chan radiates star quality. But there's more to him than charisma: at his best, the actor combines the relentlessly escalating, hyperkinetic action set-pieces for which Hong Kong is famous; the rigorous martial arts training of his idol, Bruce Lee; and the grace and daring that distinguish Buster Keaton's physical comedy. Chan also shares some of Keaton's cinematic integrity, which dictated that you shouldn't cheat the audience by faking stunts, on the set or in the editing room. Like Keaton, Chan does his own stunts, and you can see that it really is him jumping off a bridge onto a speeding boat, or clinging to the dangling ladder of a helicopter as the hostile pilot tries to shake him loose by smashing him into the sides of skyscrapers. Not that it matters, really, but the plot of Rumble in the Bronx has something to do with Chan helping the woman who has taken over his uncle's neighborhood market when she is harassed by local hoodlums. What really matters is Chan, and he's in fine form. Rumble in the Bronx doesn't rank with his best work, but it's a swell introduction to a unique star. And those stunt outtakes over the end credits are as delightfully spellbinding as ever. "See?" Chan seems to say every time he breaks a rib or twists an ankle (which happens often). "I'm doing this all for you." --Jim Emerson Review: Fun, amazing physicality, and riveting - I love this movie. I've watched it about a thousand times & consider it one of Jackie's best. It captures a lot of what makes JC movies great, coming as it did at the beginning of his explosion onto the Western scene, but before the Hollywood writers & insurance carriers started trying to make him more like a typical Hollywood star & restrained his utterly gonzo tendencies to do stunts that sane people wouldn't even consider. I also love the fact that, unlike many/most of his earlier movies, Jackie himself did his own voice. I know he's got an accent & has trouble with English (clear in the outtakes that accompany nearly all his movies) but I love his voice & pronunciations anyway. Clearly, the movie has some logic gaps that you have to just motor on past. No, New York City doesn't have big mountains in the background. Get over it (anyone who's lived in, say, the South knows that many Hollywood movies are filmed in Meditteranean terrain that's nothing like the South, even if supposedly set there. Deal with it). And I love the Rainbow Coalition nature of the gang, even though that's about as likely as the gang members being worried about the safety & survival of Elena. I'll roll with that too, just to watch Jackie at his fight scene best, such as the first time he goes into the gang's playhouse. Chan's use of random props in his incredibly athletic fight scenes are legendary, with good reason; who else can use refrigerator doors, shopping carts, pinball machines, skis, & anything other than typical "weapony" things to stage a first-class fight scene? His skill, jaw-dropping athleticism, and sense of humor show in the fight scenes in this movie as well as any of his others. Who else would have been skilled (& crazy) enough to perform the running leap across the alley from the parking garage to the teeny balcony? Had a motorcycle run millimeters over his tender bits as his bottom half projected from the sun roof of a car? Jumped from the bridge to the barge (tho that didn't turn out so well, tho he continued the remainder of the filming with a cast on his shattered ankle)? Even his use of his jacket in an early fight in the supermarket was masterful. Not to mention, we get to see Jackie in torso-hugging sleeveless shirts and that tight onesie-undie outfit....yummmm. Still makes my little heart go pitty pat; the man is an incredible physical specimen and does things with that physique that no one else could do, would think of, or even consider. But even aside from his super-human physical skills, Chan can actually act, and has a sense of humor about his movies that is wonderful (he's a long-time fan of Buster Keaton, and it shows). Fun, amazing, and riveting. Ranks up there with "Operation Condor" & "First Strike" as my fave JC movies. And "Supercop." I'd add some of his earlier films, but since other people dubbed his English lines, I can just barely stand to watch them...frequently do so with the sound off just to watch the fight scenes & not have to listen to the prissy, British-accented prep-school-sounding frat boy voice. Review: Classic Jackie Chan Action With Hilariously Bad Dubbing - The movie is a blast to watch, but the dubbing had my friends and I laughing our heads off. Apparently they filmed with actors speaking several native languages, dubbed it for Chinese release, then RE-dubbed it for American release. It was also filmed in Vancouver but is set in NYC. Despite these flaws, they only add to the entertainment factor, in my opinion!

Rumble in the Bronx Blu Ray review
One of Jackie Chan's best films of the 90s! This was his big breakthrough into the American film industry, where many fans got their first fix. In Rumble In The Bronx our hero Keung (one of Jackie's best characters btw) is a Hong Kong native on vacation in the USA to attend his uncle's wedding. Sounds nice, right? Well everything spirals out of control and he ends up battling not only the neighborhood street gang of thugs but also the mob. Oh, and a hovercraft. Can't forget that hovercraft! The fights, stunts, humor/comedy and ridiculous story are all great. Sure it's dumb, but it's dumb in all the right ways. Jackie Chan always excells at blending humor and action and this is one of the best examples of what he does best. This disc is the Westernized/International cut of the film, not the original Hong Kong cut, which runs longer.... but you know what? I actually prefer this cut over the Hong Kong version! Now I know I can hear HK cinema purists out there screaming at such a declaration, but this version works better. Most of what has been cut out is scenes of Anita Mui's character dealing with more hardships and trouble which there is already plenty of in the movie. Picture quality is great (MUCH better than the awful First Strike Blu-Ray which looks terrible) though there is not much in the way of extras. The outtakes during the credits though are the greatest supplemental material of every Jackie Chan flick and a standard in his films since the 80s. Highly recommended.

Jacki Chan Prime
Such a great JC flick. Just ignore the ridiculous plot and sit back to enjoy JC at his finest. This was the first time I saw JC in the movie theater

Silly and awesome!
Plot holes? Goofy wardrobes? Unrealistic situations? Absolutely! But if you’re watching an older Jackie Chan movie, you shouldn’t be hung up on those things. To me they are more like cartoons, except the stunts are very real. This is just a lot of fun.

The Quinacental Jackie Chan Movie
I don't think I spelt Quinacentral right but any way, I love Jackie Chan, ever sinse I was a kid, he was one of my favorite action stars. I've seen some of his other movies But all I really remember are his fight scenes and some of his stunts. But this was the first Jackie Chan movie that I watched all the way. And I love it, It's a very simple set up, Jackie plays a man named Ke Ung who comes over to New York to see his uncle. As he stays there, He gets into some trouble with a gang and crime sydacate. Thats all you really need to know about the plot. The acting is genrally fine and the film has alot of funny moments. The fight scenes are fast paced and exciting and fun. The dvd is great, the quality is just fine, the colors look good, it has a widescreen and full screen, but the widescreen is the best of course. The bonuses aren't great but not terrible, it has the trailer, which was awesome and a bio of Jackie. So overall this movie is a must see for Jackie Chan fans who haven't seen this movie and regualr action fans and marital arts fans. Also if theres is anyone who doubts Jackie Chan's greatness, Show them this movie. It's the best film to show off his skills.
