This looks interesting! The foreigner Trailer. Jackie Chan plays a vengeful father (with skills of course) of a girl killed in a terrorist attack.

It's even politically correct because the terrorists are white.

I like Jackie Chan but he should have saved enough to not have to work anymore at this point in his life.

And if he's not doing it for the money, then for what? I don't see it.



"It did not really matter what we expected from life, but rather what life expected from us. We needed to stop asking about the meaning of life, and instead to think of ourselves as those who were being questioned by life – daily and hourly. Our answer must consist not in talk and meditation, but in right action and in right conduct. Life ultimately means taking the responsibility to find the right answer to its problems and to fulfill the tasks which it constantly sets for each individual." Viktor Frankl, Man's Search for Meaning, 1946.

It's been a while since Irish bad guys, hmm? Mid-1990's at least?

Chan Wick? I saw him kill three guys once with a chopstick. A chopstick!

I'm interested, if for no other reason than to see Jackie Chan play a character that is not a goofball.

Well, the book it is based off of, "The Chinaman", the terrorists were white and in the IRA.

I think more than anything else he is trying to prefect his craft. He probably has a hell of a lot of fun making movies too.

I'm always up for some vengeance. I hope they payed as much attention to the gun handling as the Wick movies.
