Review of The Big Brawl (1980) by Tom A — 21 Sep 2007
This movie is so over the top hilarious it brings a whole new dimension to action movies. Had this movie came out 10 years later I'm sure it would have been a hit with the public like most of his movies were.
Jackie Chan is Jerry Kwan, an americanized Asian who learns how to fight from his uncle and Chinese tradition from his father. Chan then has to fight through mobs, mob bosses and tough guys to get on with life. Jackie Chan even goes at it with Luca Brazzi for the hell of it.
The whole battle creek brawl was entertaining as it had some famous faces; Ox Baker, Jackie Chan and Hardboiled Haggerty. I do wonder how some guys can be "knocked out" from a simple right cross when it takes getting thrown through glass to knock someone else out....guess some are tougher than others. Its a great nostalgic type movie 3 out of 5.
