"Infernal Affairs" co-director Alan Mak hopes his new thriller will break new ground for Hong Kong filmmakers still learning the tastes of mainland Chinese viewers. Directors in this vibrant movie industry — which produced Bruce Lee and Jackie Chan — are increasingly under pressure to cater to the booming Chinese market, but they sometimes struggle to find the pulse of mainland moviegoers because Hong Kongers' tastes tend to be more Westernized. The urban action thrillers that Hong Kong... Read Full Story
(photo: popwatch) A spokesperson for Columbia Pictures just announced the remake of the 1984 cult classic Karate Kid is yet to be titled; however, several media reports are saying the film will be titled 'The Kung Fu Kid'. At any rate, Jackie Chan will take the role of Mr. Miyagi and Jaden Smith (Will Smith’s son) will star as the Karate Kid. I’m sorry but remaking this film is a wrong move on so many levels. Feel me?

I have seen good trailers for bad movies, bad trailers for good movies, and bad trailers for bad movies, and I am prepared to say that the new look at Jackie Chan 's The Spy Next Door is a can't-miss candidate for category three.
There's not a single point at which this movie looks good. Actually, I take that back: For a fleeting moment, it sounds like Jackie's character is named Bob Hope. It's all downhill after that. Don't believe me? OK then, I'll break out the big guns. This movie co... Read Full Story
This is the movie that I have been waiting for. Jackie has always been my favourite actor. Superstar Jackie Chan is more used to dictating than being dictated to. But in his upcoming movie Shinjuku Incident, famed Hong Kong director Derek Yee bluntly told the veteran actor to ‘just act and follow orders’. Knowing the movie star’s hands-on approach on the set, Derek Yee, 51, made it clear to Chan that he was not allowed to interfere with the stunt choreographer’s work. And that, says the...

My TV has more channels today than it did a decade ago, but, late at night, I find fewer good things to watch now. In the late '90s, I was nearly always able to locate an old Jackie Chan movie. I don't think one is ever more grateful for a good movie than one is when one stumbles upon it on television at 2:00 a.m. For this reason, I'll always have a great deal of gratitude for Chan.
TBS and TNT favored his work from the '80s, airing Police Story, Project A, and their sequels regularly... Read Full Story
