	SPLICEDwire: "Rumble in the Bronx" review
		In "Rumble in the Bronx," Chan's first American release in 16 years, he's a tourist from Hong Kong in New York for his uncle's wedding.
		And it is painfully obvious that "Rumble" used Vancouver as a stand-in for New York.
		"Rumble" is 100 percent Jackie Chan-written and produced, and his long-time director Stanley Tong took care of the rest, so everything is just as it should be for Jackie Chan's brand of fun.

	'Rumble in the Bronx' (R)
		It's not often you find a movie as exciting and awful as "Rumble in the Bronx." But the sole aim of this so-bad-it's-funny action picture is to introduce Jackie Chan to American audiences.
		"Rumble in the Bronx" is on less steady ground as comedic fare: Chan delivers punches much better than he does punch lines, though there's a goofy, endearing charm about him.
		Rumble in the Bronx is rated R for violence and language.

	Rumble in the Bronx
		f ``Rumble in the Bronx'' scores well enough at the box office to make Hollywood see major dollar signs, it could augur a new style of action-adventure film in which swaggering macho pyrotechnics give way to balletic daredevil comedy.
		With crudely dubbed dialogue that recycles the limpest comic-strip cliches of countless gangster films, ``Rumble in the Bronx'' is far from the finest example of the Asian action-film genre or even of a Jackie Chan film.
		Rating: ``Rumble in the Bronx'' is rated R (Under 17 requires accompanying parent or adult guardian).

		In the Bronx, where residents have the least access to legal representation of any borough, one of the few law firms that provides free legal services there is putting its funding on the line.
		Bronx Legal Services is one of seven nonprofit groups in the city that contract with Legal Services of New York (LSNY) to provide legal services to the poor.
		But the Bronx alone refused, saying that Legal Services lawyers might be forced to answer to LSNY's funders rather than focus exclusively on their clients' interests.

		With Broken Arrow, by Hong Kong auteur John Woo, number one at the box office and Rumble in the Bronx hard on its heels, it won't be long before Pat Buchanan calls for strict import tariffs on Asian films.
		Rumble is the story of Hong Kong tourist, Keung (Chan) who comes to a strangely mountainous and Vancouvery looking New York to attend his uncle's wedding.
		New Line (which released Rumble) didn't think we were quite ready to hear Jackie sing, something he does in almost every film, or speak in Chinese, also something he also does in almost every film.

		Set in the South Bronx but actually filmed on location in Vancouver, Rumble in the Bronx features some of Jackie Chan's most dangerous stunts and, if you stick around for the end credits, you can see numerous outtakes in which Jackie barely avoids serious injury.
		Rumble in the Bronx was well received by the American press upon its release and here a few sample comments.
		Richard Corliss of Time Magazine wrote, "Rumble audiences may titter at the naive plot (the director is Stanley Tong), but they will gasp at Chan's lithe, lightning reflexes when he takes on five creeps in a deli or executes a jump from one high building to another.

	Movie Review - Rumble in the Bronx - eFilmCritic
		There is certainly a lot of humor in Rumble in the Bronx, as there would be in pretty much any Chan film, so a little unintentional humor is hardly going to ruin things.
		The ending is a bit silly and far too neat, as the filmmakers seem to have been unsure of a good way to wrap up the plot, but considering we’re talking about a martial arts film with a lot of comedic aspects, there’s not a whole lot to complain about on the plot front.
		An entertaining romp with fun action scenes, Rumble in the Bronx may or may not be aware of some of what’s funny about it, but the intentionally funny scenes definitely work and the rest aren’t that bad.

		Continuity: When Jackie is fighting the gang at their place the fl shirt he is wearing gets dirty one shot and is clean the next shot.
		Factual error: Throughout the entire film there are shots of coniferous forests, lakes, and mountains; this is all obviously British Columbia, Canada (where it was filmed), and not in the Bronx, where the film was set.
		Revealing: Although set in the Bronx, trolleybuses of BC Transit, Vancouver are seen passing in the background.

		Like Keaton, Chan does his own stunts, and you can see that it really is him jumping off a bridge onto a speeding boat, or clinging to the dangling ladder of a helicopter as the hostile pilot tries to shake him loose by smashing him into the sides of skyscrapers.

		Rumble was the top-grossing movie in HK in 1995 and made $10 million during its first week in US theatres, which paved the way for the release of several more Chan films to US theatres.

		From there the story degenerates into the familiar machinations of plenty of Hong Kong scripts, with Chan teaming with the "bad guys" to go after the "even worse guys" that steal wheelchair cushions and pretend to be the FBI.
		That's beside the point, since the attraction of RUMBLE is the spectacular fight scenes where Chan's underdog persona is put to the test.
		Though not as good a story or movie as POLICE STORY or SUPER COP, there's plenty of fun in RUMBLE for an enjoyable evening at the movies.

		Anything good about ``Rumble in the Bronx,'' which comes out on video this week, has directly to do with Chan: his humor, his boyish charm, his inventive use of props, his audacious stunts.
		When the uncle sells the store to a young woman, he stays on to help the new owner, who soon has her hands full when a gang starts shoplifting.
		``Rumble'' also throws in a plot about diamond thieves, but the only important thing here is that Chan gets to do his stuff.

		Still, after 20 years in the business, the $20 million Rumble is his first film to approach the production standards of a Hollywood action movie.
		Even neophytes will recognize that the story is Cheez Whiz, the acting is over the top, the settings are Disneyland-fake (standing in for the Bronx are the rolling hills of Vancouver), and the villains are cartoonishly unthreatening.
		At the heart of it all is the indefatigable Jackie, and Rumble certainly serves as a satisfying, crowd-pleasing introduction to America.

	Review: Rumble in the Bronx (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
		Because the dialogue was rerecorded in post-production, it still has some of the mismatched lip movement associated with dubbing, but there's not enough talking for this to become a major distraction.
		Of course, no one comes to a Jackie Chan movie for dialogue or a strong narrative; viewers are there for the visceral thrill of watching the hero knock down bad guys like bowling pins while leaping tall buildings and hurling himself through the air.
		In Rumble, Chan does all his typical eye-popping stunts, including an amazing jump onto a hovercraft (which cost him a broken ankle) and a waterskiing sequence accomplished without skis.
