Gotta love Jackie Chan. His movies weren`t ridiculously violent like others. I enjoy the comedy he manages to include in the fighting scenes always had me rolling :D

Jackie Chan is a good example of "from rags to riches". He knows how hard life is and worked his ass off to get where he is.
I like him because he motivates me and he is also a good person.

Dude u do realize that Jackie Chan has been doin Kung Fu since he was a lil kid. U should check out Supercop, or Snake in Eagle's Shadow. The out takes at the end r insane, when Jackie Chan started hitting it big in the states like Rush Hour he was told they couldn't insure his movies if he did his own stunts like b4 cause he got seriously jacked up in a couple of em, like getting hit by a bus while hanging from a helicopter rope ladder. Who am I has some insane driving stunts idk if Jackie did em, but I do love the Evo they were doin the stunts in.

something about Jackie Chan, still super dexterous and can adjust his body through holes that is humanly impossible. I think he's a dragon.

CANNES, France: Hong Kong superstar Jackie Chan revealed during a press conference at the Cannes Film Festival on Friday that his upcoming film "Chinese Zodiac" will be his last major action film, reported Chinese media.

Shot in eight countries with a budget of 300 million yuan (S$60.3 million), "Chinese Zodiac", which is scheduled for a December release, sees Chan play a treasure hunter who travels the globe in order to recover stolen national treasures.

"I wanted to prove that I am not just an action star, but also a good actor, so these few years I appeared in films like 'Little Big Soldier' and '1911' but a lot of people still want to see me show off my punches and kicks.

"So I agreed to shoot one more action film. I still can fight but this ("Chinese Zodiac) will be my last action film," said Chan, who got his big break in the 1978 martial arts classic "Snake in the Eagle's Shadow".

"I'm already 58, how much longer can I keep fighting?"

"I have not retired!"

However, Chan, who said he wants to be "Asia's Robert De Niro", stressed that this doesn't mean he will stop making films with action elements in them – or retire, as some media reports have claimed.

It just meant that he will no longer be shooting films where the focus is purely on the action.

"I have not retired! This is my last major action film but I will still be working on films.

"I hope more directors would approach me for musical films. I am quite a good singer," quipped Chan, during an interview with Chinese media.

"I can also do some sci-fi action ... or romance films."

he really wants to be involved with romance films , all he ever talks about
