APRIL 24 — In the past, I enjoyed Jackie Chan movies for mainly one reason: the action.Note: This review contains no spoilers.
Having said that, I’m willing to bet one movie ticket that for this movie at least, Chan used a stunt double .the camera ensures his face is visible, in quite a few action scenes his face is hidden. This, ironically resonates with the central theme of the movie which is about how traditional stunt-work may be obsolete given the emergence of CGI, the lack of trained people willing to risk their bodies, and changing audience preferences.
Any traditional Chan fan, like me, would have trouble separating Luo’s fictional struggles from Chan’s real-life woes. Perhaps this reflects Yang’s genius and is the key factor why the movie is doing so well in the box-office.
