That was an excellent one.

Most undeservingly overhyped movie of all time??

I am only giving this movie a 1 for the great cast, though I can't imagine what any of them were thinking. This movie was horrible

I wanted to like it more than I actually did... But much of the humor totally escaped me and I walked out only mildly impressed.

'Big Trouble In Little China (1986)', a charmingly bizarre little gem of a film, pits an all-American 'everyman' truck-driver against an ancient mystical warlord and is wickedly entertaining throughout, a wonderfully weird walk on the right side of silly that manages to balance its action and comedy impeccably to the point where its few flaws are almost too easy to overlook. Tying it all together is Kurt Russell, who's wide-eyed wonder and honest reactions not only highlight the absurdity but also sell the believability of the flick's fantastically imaginative fantasy elements, and it's the down-to-earth attitude that the whole out-of-this-world piece adopts that allows it to sort of transcend its B-movie status and become an extremely entertaining picture that never takes itself seriously and doesn't ask its audience to either. It's just incredibly fun. 7/10

One of the most famous reviewers on the Internet is Noah Antwiler, better known as Spoony. I was interested in watching this movie only because it was his favorite film. I definitely enjoyed this movie. It's just that I don't think it's a classic like a lot of people do. I feel so bad for not liking it more! Did you know James Hong (who plays Lo Pan) is one of the most prolific actors ever appearing in literally hundreds of movies?The main character, played by Kurt Russell is an odd character as he really has a lot of both good and bad traits. He can be annoying with his constant whining, but he really does come across as a representation of the audience with how he's confused by everything. I don't fully understand the story myself. It's basically some guys rescue women from a villain. Yeah, not that unique but the way the film is actually told is really interesting. There's so many bright colors and while I didn't love it, it's certainly something I would recommend. ***

I will try to keep this review short, if you want a film with lots of laughs, magic and far fetched action look no further, This is the film for you. It's Kurt Russell at his best and his character Jack Burton is a legend, his lines are pure comedy gold. Some of my favorite lines From good old jack, speaking to Lo Pan Are you crazy... Is that your problem? And This is gonna take crackerjack timing, Wang. Short Summary: Get on this film.

This cult classic is one of carpenters best And without doubt one of Kurt Russell's best movies It's a movie that just works on every level With a cast that just nails it its one of those rare movies That has a cast that is just perfect It really found its audience on VHS and continues to today on DVD and Blue-Ray The movie center's around Jack Burton (Russell) and his bizarre conflict within, and underneath, the streets of San Francisco's Chinatown Lo-Pan an evil sorcerer kidnaps his best friend Wang Chi's fiancé He and Wang Chi set off to get back Wang Chi's fiancé With the help of a few friends along the way The great thing about this movie and what makes it so funny Is the movie is meant to be an action movie but it's got so much comedy What I love about it is despite Jack Burton being Put up as the hero and Wang Chi the side kick it's actually the other way Wang Chi is really the guy who tends to get the two out of trouble Why Burton well Burton is basically John Wayne without the Brain You must see it it's a classic
