My Top 5 Jackie Movies (in order)

1. Drunken Master II
2. Police Story 3: Supercop
3. Armor of God II: Operation Condor
4. Police Story
5. First Strike

I'm assuming that you are only picking movies where he is the only star. Otherwise, Dragons Forever would be high up on the list.

I like Shanghai Noon the best. Also liked Rush Hour 1. Don't care much for 2.

blasphemy... newer stuff better? There are no great fight scenes and only a hand full of great stunts. Although I do enjoy them I can't call them anywhere near his best work.

oh well... don't want to become a Jackie Chan old school elitist.

WHEELS ON MEALS.
I would definitely include that in my top five. Seeing that about two years ago is what made we want to check out all his older stuff.

1. Police Story
2. Project A
3. Drunken Master 2 (NOT "Legend of Drunken Master"!!!)
4. Dragons Forever
5. Armour of God 2: Operation Condor (contrary to what Miramax and Dimension would have you believe, Operation Condor is the sequel to Armour of God, NOT the other way around)

Needless to say (I hope), these picks are based on the REAL versions, not the incomplete, mutilated releases from Miramax, Dimension, and New Line.

Rumble in Hong Kong. Not only was he advertised as the star on the DVD pack that my friend bought (he's just the lead henchman), they gave him some weird mole.

1. Miracles (AKA Mr. Canton & Lady Rose or Canton Godfather) - I really, really love this flick. One of my all-time favorite movies.

2. Drunken Master II

3. Police Story

4. Supercop (AKA Police Story III)

5. Project A II - Probably like it more than the original strictly due to Maggie Cheung.


Of his US movies, Shanghai Noon is my definite favorite. I have high hopes for the sequel.

I know Police Story was released again in R3 but i've heard that its really R0. Project A was just released as well...not sure if thats marked R3 and actually R0 though.

Its probably best to go Region Free.

Drunken Master 2 is avaible at HKFLix i believe, the framing is incorrect but the movie is uncut/orignal language.

This is not a slam

I think the best part of any Jackie Chan movie is the outtakes. The outtakes are hysterical. The last movie that I saw in the theatre with Jackie Chan in it, I think the entire audience stayed to watch the outtakes.
