This is a tender, generous movie that likes its characters and presents them as real people, full of flaws and strengths.
it is the rare 'crazy' movie that actually has something to say.
The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful
This movie feels like it was made purely to piss off people who want good shows
JACKIE CHAN: MY STORY is a nice little straight-to-video documentary exploring the life in film of the world's number one martial artist. Sure, it's dated and cheesy in places, but it's also fast-paced and cheerful and features plenty of interview clips with the man himself. As expected, this documentary is padded out with various fight scenes from Jackie's movies dating between the 1970s and the 1990s. More interestingly, it has brief interview snippets - often culled from behind-the-scenes footage or red carpet news footage - with various celebrities chatting about the great man. There's little to dislike about this enjoyable effort overall.
If you are a fan of Jackie Chan, this documentary is the best you can see on him. It Shows you how great of a man he really is and it also gives you great behind the scenes looks at what he is like at work. He also goes into detail about some of his greatest movies and some of the inspirations in his life.
