Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaFilming in Vancouver, British Columbia on October 6, 1994, Jackie Chan broke his right ankle while attempting the scene where he jumps onto the hovercraft. Despite the injury, he was present at the premiere of Drunken Master II (1994) at the Vancouver International Film Festival that night. Later in the production of this movie, director Stanley Tong sprained his ankle, completing the movie on crutches. Françoise Yip also broke her leg while filming the scene where she rides a motorbike across the tops of parked cars. She insisted on returning to the set after her leg was plastered at the hospital. Two stuntwomen also broke their legs during the filming of the motorcycle chase.
- GoofsDanny's Sega Game Gear, given to him by Keung, has no game inside it. In spite of this, Danny seems to enjoy playing with it.
- Crazy creditsAs is customary for Jackie Chan movies, the end credits show a blooper reel of outtakes of the movie's stunts gone wrong.
- Alternate versionsThe Australian DVD was taken from the censored European master. A majority of the brutal impact hits of the bottles being hit into Jackie have been removed and cause several continuity errors.
Featured review
My introduction to Jackie Chan.
Before I'd seen "Rumble in the Bronx", I'd heard of Jackie Chan but never seen any of his movies. Well, when I saw this, I practically died laughing. Basically an hour and a half of him bonking people in every direction, the movie is physical humor at its best. The plot has Hong Kong cop Keung (Chan) coming to New York for his uncle's wedding and having to battle street gangs and a crime syndicate. By battle, I of course mean pulling every crazy stunt imaginable. I really liked the early scene in the store, and then the whole hovercraft sequence.
I gotta ask: how did we get by before these kinds of movies? There was once a time when movies all followed the Disney formula, and Jackie Chan-style plots were unfathomable. Thank God for Bruce Lee! As it is, Jackie Chan often seems to be spoofing Bruce Lee. Hilarious.
