Jackie Chan, a national first-class actor, Greater China film industry and international kung fu movie star. After decades of hard work in the entertainment industry, he gradually transformed from a martial arts apprentice into a civilian hero with a sense of responsibility and professionalism, and then became an international kung fu superstar. The name Jackie Chan represents another international superstar after Bruce Lee who can truly be recognized by fans around the world in Hollywood and shape the image of the Chinese with justice and bravery. Jackie Chan has starred in hundreds of movies since his debut. The blogger has compiled the ten most classic movies (series) to share with everyone.

Tenth place: "Food Truck"

Director: Sammo Hung

Screenwriter: Tang Jingsheng / Li Jiongjia

Starring: Jackie Chan / Sammo Hung / Yuen Biao/Laura Foner/Zhang Chong, etc.

Release date: 1984

The three brothers Jackie Chan, Sammo Hung and Yuen Biao co-starred after "Plan A" The comedy was filmed on location in Spain, and the European-style castle became the main story scene. Although there is nothing new in the content of the entire film, the three brothers cooperated seamlessly, and the entire film was shot cheerfully and lively, meeting the audience's consistent entertainment needs of Jackie Chan's films.

The fighting scenes in the film are exciting. Among them, the three-person fight between the three Jackie Chan brothers is impressive. The three people's dexterous skills, seamless cooperation, and hilarious dramatic scenes are classics. Among the villains, the gangster played by Binny Yuquidez is the most eye-catching. Yuquidez was once the world's lightweight kickboxing champion and had wonderful fights in "The Fighter" and "Food Truck" scene, including a fight with Jackie Chan at the end of "Food Truck". It was rated as the second most exciting fight scene in film and television dramas in the history of "Black Belt" magazine. Second only to Bruce Lee and Chuck Norris's fighting performance in "Way of the Dragon".

Ninth place: "Dragon Brothers and Tiger Brothers" or "Eagle Project" series of movies

"Dragon Brothers and Tiger Brothers" (1987, Hong Kong/Yugoslavia)

"Eagle Project" (1991, Hong Kong)

"Twelve Zodiac Signs" (2012, Mainland China/Hong Kong)

These three films seem to have nothing to do with each other The movie can actually be said to be a series. Many movie fans are easily confused. In fact, the 1987 "Brothers of the Dragon" is the first film, and the English film is called "Armour of God", while the English film of "Eagle Project" is called "Armour of God II". The United States introduced "Brothers and Tigers" in 1998 and released the DVD under the name "Eagle Project 2: Brothers," but in fact "Brothers and Brothers" was the first one.

The alias of "Zodiac" is also called "Eagle Project 3", and the English title is "Armour of God III". Some magazines also call it "Dragon Brothers and Tiger Brothers 3: Twelve Zodiac Signs". Due to copyright, distribution and other reasons, changes in film titles and content have resulted in these three films having this somewhat strange "series" relationship.

"Dragon Brothers and Tiger Brothers": This is the first time that Long Cheng took a team to shoot abroad. This was inspired by the movie "Fast Truck" because shooting abroad can give the movie a more international quality.

"Eagle Project": The film is similar to "Raiders of the Lost Ark" starring Harrison Ford. The entire film was shot in the African desert. Jackie Chan helps the Count go to the Sahara Desert to find a secret of the German army during World War II. When they arrived at the base, the gold buried inside was unearthed. The glamorous girl Zheng Yuling was ordered to assist Jackie Chan. Along the way, mysterious people with various identities launched attacks, which were full of thrills.

"Zodiac": A new film in recent years, it is an action-adventure film and is Jackie Chan's 101st film. The film is not considered a classic because it was written together as a series.

The film also has its highlights, but it also has a lot of flaws. Personally, I feel that the clichéd jokes about the jungle are a bit boring.

Eighth place: "Miracle"

Director: Jackie Chan

Screenwriter: Jackie Chan/Deng Jingsheng

Starring: Jackie Chan/Anita Mui/ Gui Yalei/Wuma

Release date: 1989

"Police Story" is Jackie Chan's favorite action movie, and "Miracle" is One of his favorite films of all, it tells the story of a gentlemanly gangster who directs a white lie for a flower girl. This story comes from the Hollywood movies "A Lady for a Day" in 1933 and "The House of Fortune" in 1961.

"Miracle" does not win because of action like "Police Story". Jackie Chan is very proud of his directing and acting achievements in the film. In the last scene of the martial arts that took place in the rope factory, the rope They either become weapons or traps, reflecting Jackie Chan's breathtaking use of props and locations. During the filming, he made some experiments, using wide lenses and panning lenses. There was a one-minute long shot that took three full days to shoot with a horizontal camera.

Seventh place: "Baby Project"

Director: Chen Musheng

Screenwriter: Yuan Jinlin/Jackie Chan/Chen Musheng

Starring: Jackie Chan/ Xu Guanwen / Louis Koo / Charlene Choi / Gao Yuanyuan / Chen Baoguo / Yuan Biao / Yu Anan

Release date: 2006

"Baby Project" tells the story of a pair of thieves who stole a child. A series of ridiculous yet touching stories. The promotion introduced that Jackie Chan finally played a negative role, which was naturally a gimmick. Jackie Chan played a "kind thief".

The film is full of laughter, overall relaxed, and has a lot of funny parts. In "Baby Project" we were able to relive the "Plan A"-style scenes: many unknown characters "encountered" in a small space, resulting in a high concentration of dramatic conflict and comedy. Another interesting thing is that the dialogue is not bad, which makes most viewers overjoyed. But in the final analysis, the key role in the success of "Project Baby" is probably not Jackie Chan, but the title and the "Baby" in the poster.

The most lethal one is the super charming "Little Handsome Baby" Matthew. Matthew is a seven-month-old mixed-race boy who is said to be a mixed-race child from eight countries. Jackie Chan and director Chen Musheng accidentally discovered him on the subway after selecting more than a thousand babies. The child's mother is from Colombia and came to Hong Kong for a visit. When she heard that she was going to appear in Jackie Chan's movie, she immediately agreed.

Sixth place: "Shinjuku Incident"

Director: Er Dongsheng

Screenwriter: Er Dongsheng/Qin Tiannan/Liu Yongping

Starring: Jackie Chan / Naoto Takenaka / Daniel Wu / Xu Jinglei / Fan Bingbing / Masaya Kato / Gao Jie, etc.

Release date: 2009

Among Jackie Chan's works, it is the film that best reflects social reality. Showing smuggling, Japanese Chinese gangs, etc. in front of the audience can be said to be a true portrayal of the current situation of Chinese people living in Japan. The film tells the story of the rise and fall of a generation of gangsters. Although the characters in the film are fictional, every example comes from real events in Japanese Chinese society.

"Shinjuku Incident" is based on the underground struggle of Chinese gangsters in Tokyo, Japan, and involves many unknown gang crimes. Tietou, played by Jackie Chan, came to Japan as a stowaway, worked undercover, and was chased by the police. Later, he decided to "fish for the side" to gain a position. So I experienced using fake credit cards to make purchases, secretly selling fake phone cards, manipulating electronic games, etc.

In the end, in order to survive, he became a killer and drug seller used by Japanese gangsters... It can be said to be a survival encyclopedia of Chinese gangsters in Japan.

Fifth place: Two parts of the "Drunken Master" series

"Drunken Master" (1978, Hong Kong)

"Drunken Master 2" (1994 , Hong Kong)

"Drunken Master": Although Jackie Chan became famous with "Snake in the Shadow", he did not become a star until "Drunken Master". "Drunken Master" followed the success of "Snake in the Shadow" mode, grasping the most important elements, such as the subversion of the traditional master-student relationship, the exciting fight with the villain Huang Zhengli, etc. Also adding more humor and stunt-style fighting, "Drunken Master" challenges a serious sacred legend and gives a new interpretation of Huang Feihong, not to show his heroic deeds as an adult, but to show him before he became a myth and legend. In his youth, when Jackie Chan played the role of the naughty boy Huang Feihong in a completely different interpretation than before, the audience was surprised. On the one hand, they felt that Huang Feihong seemed a bit disrespectful, but on the other hand, they found it interesting and fresh.

"Drunken Master 2": "Drunken Master 2" adheres to the theme of leading people to do good and promoting justice that has been gradually formed in "Jackie Chan movies" since the 1980s. Compared with "Drunken Master", it has less emphasis on the characters A lot of revisions have been made. Although Huang Feihong, played by Jackie Chan, retains some of his boyish nature and innocuous shortcomings, his moral restraint on himself has obviously been greatly enhanced. The film also intentionally strengthens the image of his father Huang Qiying and adds the character Fu Minqi, a Manchu martial arts examiner. As Huang Feihong's spiritual guide, he not only teaches Huang Feihong personal codes of conduct such as tolerance, forgiveness, and integrity, but also Huang Feihong must have a deep understanding of the righteousness of the country and the nation. "Drunken Master 2" was not only well received when it was released, but was also named one of the "Top Ten Best Movies in the World in 1994" and one of the "100 Best Movies in Global History" by Time Magazine.

Fourth place: "Red Zone"

Director: Tang Jili

Screenwriter: Ma Meiping/Deng Jingsheng

Starring: Jackie Chan/ Anita Mui/Yip Fanghua/Tung Piao, etc.

Release date: 1995

In 1980 and 1985, Jackie Chan entered Hollywood with "The Trench" and "The Great and Powerful" respectively, but both It ended in failure, and it was not until 1995's "Red Zone" that it became a beautiful opening for him to return to Hollywood. The reason why this movie became Jackie Chan's stepping stone to open up the Hollywood market is that the background of the movie is completely set in the United States, and the villains and The supporting characters are also non-Asian, and there is a lot of dialogue in English. New Line released the film while also promoting Jackie Chan as an international star. "Red Zone" cost more than 100 million Hong Kong dollars and ultimately earned US$32 million at the box office in the United States. From then on, Jackie Chan truly found his way into international large-scale productions.

"Red Zone" is a symbol of the internationalization of Jackie Chan's films. This film not only established Jackie Chan's international status, but also marked a milestone for Jackie Chan to successfully enter the mainstream American film market. In early 1995, Jackie Chan's "Red Zone" was introduced to the Chinese mainland market. Relying on Jackie Chan's popularity, the film achieved good box office results in the mainland. This was undoubtedly a huge impact on the mainland Chinese film market, which was in a downturn at the time, and "Red Zone" also taught mainland Chinese filmmakers a new term - "New Year's Eve film"

No. Three: "Plan A" series

"Plan A" (1983, Hong Kong)

"Plan A Sequel" (1987, Hong Kong)

"Plan A" can be said to be Jackie Chan's work of passion and ambition after his return from Hollywood. "Plan A" breaks away from the pattern of Jackie Chan's previous films. Although the setting is still the late Qing Dynasty and the early Republic of China, the plot tells the story of the Hong Kong Marine Police's fight against pirates. The film style is humorous and has many funny scenes. However, the story is complete and contains elements of a drama, opening up A new plot mode for Jackie Chan movies in the 1980s.

"Plan A" is more modern than any of Jackie Chan's previous films. It has the look of a classic Hollywood movie, trying to capture the same things as "Last Crusade": guns, thugs, swashbuckling. Martial arts scenes. Starting from "Plan A", Jackie Chan began to focus on the use of large-scale stunts and thrilling action scenes, and set the background of the story at the turn of the century. Jackie Chan said that it was an indirect response to the British handing Hong Kong back to China. The film's moral meaning is that Hong Kong People mind their own business better than the British.

"Sequel to Plan A": Following the commercial success of its predecessor "Plan A" and ushering in a new era of Jackie Chan's action comedy, Golden Harvest Pictures launched this sequel in 1987. As a sequel to "Plan A", the film has basically no connection with the previous episode. Only a group of remaining pirates seeking revenge on Ma Rulong can remind people of its origins with "Plan A". Jackie Chan's films in the 1980s have always left a strong impression on people with comedy and fighting. Although "Plan A Sequel" also followed Tsui Hark's "Swordsman" and added elements of revolutionary uprising, it still has the highest achievements in these two aspects. .

Second place: "Who Am I"

Director: Chen Musheng / Jackie Chan

Screenwriter: Jackie Chan / Chen Shuxian / Lee Reynolds

Starring: Jackie Chan/Farah Miho/Mirai Yamamoto

Release date: 1998

As long as there is a movie starring Jackie Chan, no matter who the director is, there will be an obvious mark of Jackie Chan. This film is no exception: narrow alley fights, gecko-style rock climbing and death-defying stunts, and a completely good guy doing good deeds. The main scene is in Africa, and it basically focuses on novelty, thrills, and chase plots.

This is the first film shot by Jackie Chan after the return of Hong Kong. It is the first time for the audience to see the Bauhinia emblem in a Hong Kong movie. Then he directly emphasizes Hong Kong people and Hong Kong in the title of the film. The identity myth in the film reveals the doubts Hong Kong people have about their own status and roles.

Before and after the handover, a large number of movies with the theme of amnesia appeared in Hong Kong, but "Who Am I" was the first spy film in which the male protagonist lost his memory. The origin and background of the male protagonist in the film are already very vague. In a certain process, amnesia has erased the incompatibility between his Hong Kong identity and international identity, combining his Hong Kong identity with the international element of the CIA so that the male protagonist can join. The international stage, facing a whole new world.

First place: "Police Story" series "Police Story" (1985, Hong Kong) "Police Story Sequel" (1988, Hong Kong) "Police Story 3: Super Cop" (1992, Hong Kong ) "Police Story 4: Simple Mission" (1996, Hong Kong/United States/Australia/Russia) "New Police Story" (2004, Mainland China/Hong Kong) "Police Story 2013" (2013, Mainland China/Hong Kong) "Police Story" " is regarded as Jackie Chan's key masterpiece and a milestone in Hong Kong action films. After the transition from "Plan A" to "Police Story", Jackie Chan grew from a kung fu boy in the early Republic of China to a contemporary hero of justice. There were six movies in this series from 1985 to 2013. I will introduce them one by one below. "Police Story": In 1982, Jackie Chan visited the United States and wanted to open up the Hollywood market with several films that catered to Western tastes, including "Cannonball Speed", "Power Rangers", "The Trench", etc. However, success failed, and these films did not bring him a good market. Like Bruce Lee back then, Jackie Chan, who was less than 30 years old, concentrated on developing in Hong Kong. Although the film "The Big Brother" failed at the box office, Jackie Chan was inspired by the police and gangster action movies, so "Police Story" turned out in 1985, which shocked everyone with its skills. From beginning to end, the film is filled with uncensored fights and real stunts, and is full of desperate action scenes that challenge the limits of human body and courage, creating a signature Jackie Chan style in the future.

For the first time, Jackie Chan plays a character with a complete personality in an action movie, with a complicated life, a private life and even a romance. "Police Story Continuing": In 1988, "Police Story Continuing" was directed and starred by Jackie Chan. Although the plot was a bit retro, the novel fighting and the same death-defying special performances were still popular. The film remains extremely popular, generating high box office revenue in both Hong Kong and Taiwan. "Police Story 3: Super Cop": This sequel after a lapse of 5 years is very different from the first two episodes. The main reason is the change of director and heroine. The director was replaced by Tang Jili, a cutting-edge action director, who is also the director who has collaborated with Jackie Chan the most since then. Maggie Cheung, who has been playing the role of Dragon Girl in the first two episodes, has been famous for a long time and only made a cameo role in it. The real heroine was replaced by Malaysian Chinese actress Michelle Yeoh. The heroine is no longer just a protected object like in the first two episodes, but has become a female special police officer in mainland China. Michelle Yeoh is very successful and steals many scenes from Jackie Chan, which is something that the first two episodes did not have. Jackie Chan did not hesitate and gave his best performance, including the scene of jumping from a helicopter that became a classic. "Police Story 4: Simple Mission": The fourth "Simple Mission" (also called "Platinum Dragon"), the film became a one-man show for Jackie Chan. The heroine in the film is Taiwanese actress Wu Chenjun, who is also Jackie Chan like the previous two episodes. The object of desperate protection, so this part is somewhat similar to the previous two parts. Jackie Chan deals with the Russian mafia alone, showing his true qualities as a lonely hero in the "Police Story" series. A fight scene in the snow is a classic of the film. "New Police Story": In 2004, the "Police Story" spin-off "New Police Story" was released. "New Police Story" can be said to be a subversion of the old version of "Police Story". The protagonist in the film is changed from the omnipotent Chan Ka-Kui to the down-and-out police inspector Chan Kwok-wing who has gone through many hardships. Jackie Chan plays a humane policeman, completely different from the previous "superhero" image. For the first time, everyone will see Jackie Chan on the screen being controlled by others and kneeling down to plead for mercy. Director Chen Musheng, who had an outstanding performance in "Two Heroes", said with confidence: I will not only show Jackie Chan's kung fu through this drama, but also Want to challenge Jackie Chan's acting skills. "Police Story 2013": The latest film in this series, its content and style are unprecedented new attempts by Jackie Chan movies. It is a new interpretation of the police story and a police film from a new perspective. Jackie Chan also transformed from a Hong Kong policeman to a mainland policeman. The policeman played by Jackie Chan has changed his name and style. He is no longer a superhero who kills everyone. More often, he is just a helpless father. The world is changing, movie styles and audience tastes are also changing. This so-called new attempt of the latest Police Story has not become a classic like the old version of "Police Story". Instead, it has become the worst-reviewed one in the entire series.

Jackie Chan

In the film career, Jackie Chan's achievements are obvious to everyone. He has the status of "No. 1 among the 20 greatest action movie stars in history" (reviewed by The New York Times in 2012), and won the Academy Award for Lifetime Achievement Award in 2016. He has made countless films and has always been very prolific. Today, Diary Girl found out eight of Jackie Chan's best movies based on her own movie-watching experience, and ranked them based on Douban scores. I wonder which one is number one in your mind?

Eighth place: "British Showdown"

"British Showdown"

In recent years, Jackie Chan has released many movies, such as the recently released "Blood of the Machine" ", "Kung Fu Yoga" for the New Year last year, as well as "Escape", "Railway Tiger", etc., but they are not considered good movies. Only the 2017 "The British Showdown" seems to be not satisfactory, and it has received Douban Rating 7.1. In "British Showdown", Jackie Chan broke through his previous comedy style and used a gloomy image to interpret the anger and disappointment of a father who lost his daughter. Although the fighting was less interesting, the action was still exciting. The story comes from Stephen Lesser's novel "The Chinese", so the plot is mature and complete, with twists and turns and is very interesting.

Seventh place: "Baby Project"

"Baby Project" is a classic collaboration between Jackie Chan, Louis Koo, Gao Yuanyuan, etc. The movie was released in 2006, with relaxed and funny performances The humorous and touching story helped the film earn a box office return of 150 million yuan across Asia.

Sixth place: "Shinjuku Incident"

This is Jackie Chan's 2009 work. It tells the story of the rise and fall of a generation of Japanese underworld bosses. Every event in the film originates from Based on real events that happened in the local Chinese society in Japan. In addition to Jackie Chan, the film also features the paralyzingly handsome Daniel Wu and the breathtakingly beautiful Fan Bingbing. In addition, one thing that I am very proud of is that most of the scenes of this movie need to be shot in Japan. Because it is a movie of Jackie Chan, the Japanese government is very supportive. Even the forbidden areas that have never been opened to the outside world have made an exception to allow Jackie Chan. The crew went in to shoot.

Fifth place: "Drunken Master" series

This series of movies includes "Drunken Master" (7.3 points on Douban) and "Drunken Master 2" (7.5 points on Douban). The former Completed in 1978, the latter was released in 1994, both of which are Jackie Chan's early film works. Overall, "Drunken Master 2" is even better than the first one. The starring roles of Anita Mui and Andy Lau gave this series of movies a new lease of life, making the story of Hong Kong master Wong Fei-hung a household name.

Fourth place: "Police Story" series

This series of movies includes "Police Story" in 1985 (7.7 points on Douban), "Police Story Sequel" in 1988 (Douban 7.3 points), 1992's "Police Story 3: Super Cop" (Douban 7.4 points), 2004's "New Police Story" (Douban 7.2 points), 2013's "Police Story 2013" (Douban 5.7 points), no I don’t know if it was because of Jing Tian’s starring role, but Police Story ended up being unfinished at the end, which is disappointing.

Third place: "Eagle Project"

When this movie was released, Diary Girl was not born yet, but this did not affect Diary Girl's love for it. Jackie Chan was Jackie, played in the movie, goes through a series of events and transforms from a thief into a hero who is willing to sacrifice for the country. This is the most gratifying thing. Douban’s high score of 7.5 is well deserved.

Second place: "Plan A" series

There are two series in this series: "Plan A" and "Plan A Sequel", the first one was released in 1983 In 2016, the elements of cops, comedy and action made this love-hate movie particularly exciting. The sequel, released in 1987, brought together Maggie Cheung, Lo Wai-kwong, Rosamund Kwan and others. Jackie Chan played Ma Rulong, who was upright and awe-inspiring. It was precisely because of this movie that the Family Class won the 1987 Hong Kong Film Awards for Best Action Design Award.

First place: "Enter the Dragon"

This classic with a Douban score of 8.1 is a movie starring Bruce Lee, although Jackie Chan only played a character in the film. It took Bruce Lee more than ten seconds to solve the small role of the villain's thug, but we can't deny that this ten-second classic is more like a silent inheritance - when the kung fu superstar Bruce Lee passed away, the new star Jackie Chan It is rising again, bringing Chinese Kung Fu to the whole world, letting the world see the Chinese people's proud toughness.

"Plan A" - the most typical and benchmark Cheng's comedy, with no low points, no excessive sensationalism, many stars and young temperament, and a different kind of beauty "Drunken Master 2" - Dee Xia, Master Liu, the most handsome "Young Marshal", Amei, Guo Jing, Lu Huiguang's legs, extremely exciting duel, constant surprises "Miracle" - Jackie Chan's directorial talent exploded, the Easter eggs throughout the story are dizzying, and the long lens is played with ease

Anything before 2010 is acceptable
