You work at a movie theater? I thought that you worked at a record store?



Spoiler for DISCUSSION / SPOILERS:
They made Jackie Chan look old as fuck in this movie. This was more of a drama and less of an action film than most of Jackie's movies. Less kung-fu and more explosions. He used his mind to defeat his foes by making explosives and setting traps, more so than fighting them one-on-one. It's hard to believe that he is 64! He is definitely one of my favorite actors. I have been on a Jackie Chan kick [no pun intended] as of late, watching Rush Hour 1, 2 & 3, Dragon Blade and Shanghai Knights. We really need a Jackie Chan appreciation thread.
