Summary: A little too violent, but still a definite good one!
Review: I thought this had a little too much violence (they could have gone all day without suggesting the image of a live guy - albeit bad guy - going through a chipper/shredder and ending up in a garbage bag), but I wouldn't part with my copy of Rumble for the world. I'd maybe keep this one out of the hands of younger kids. Chan is definitely the best and he amazes me each time I watch any of his movies.

Like other reviewers have stated, you don't watch Jackie Chan movies for profound art. But anytime you can get hold of any of his flicks, take the opportunity to watch it/buy it/keep it.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: I love it!
Review: This movie is soooo cool. Jackie Chan is awsome just like in his other movies. I've seen this movie over 6-7 times and it never gets old. The amazing moves he does and when he does a great move on someone and they get totally decked out I still am not bored. This has to be one of my favorite Jackie Chan movies. Even if you dont like action films I think you will enjoy this!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Worth a purchase
Review: What I love about Jackie Chan Movies is the bit of humour that eases one into the movie, He's funny yet invincible, he gets beat up at first, but then comes back , almost like a machine, a terminator to kick the eney butt!
Rumble in the Bronx is action packed, he jumps of buildings, boats and drops out of clear blue sky escaping the gang. I had to remind my self to breathe when watching this.

Don't get put off by cheesey reviews, this movie rocks, and I might be a girl, but I know my action movies, trust me : )

Happy Watching.

Summary: Jackie is a 4, watchability a 2.
Review: This is about 1/2 a very good movie. But it is so annowing to watch the kid and overall the mediocre production, that i can only give it a 2 star -FAIR- rating.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Absolutely Horrible
Review: Where do I begin with this piece of garbage? Although he clearly stated it, this movie is not even filmed anywhere near The Bronx. It is filmed in Vancouver (believe me, The Bronx does not have mountains. It may have a waterfall, but not mountains.) Evidently, he's trying to film it as though The Bronx was still in the 1970s. Meanwhile, it was filmed in the 1990s. This borough has changed since that time. It is still changing today for the better. The image portrayed is that if you step into The Bronx, a criminal act will be immediately done upon you. The story is shallow, unfunny, and pointless. It is obviously a two hour commercial to see what Jackie Chan can do. If I could have placed in no stars, I would have. Thank you for helping sabatoge New York City's name yet again.

Rating: 5 stars

Summary: Fun, just not good
Review: Highly Entertaining, good for rainy days. The acting, and the jokes are horrible, but thankfully the kung fu and action scenes cancel the negatives out.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Rumble In The Bronx (1994)
Review: This film has little comedy in it. I think I'll spoil the plot if I tell you. In this film Jackie gets beaten up. All the huge crownd of bullies throw many glass bottles at Jackie's face!
Highlight: when Jackie fights all the Bronx.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Let's get ready to rumble!
Review: Before Jackie Chan was staring in movies with Chris Tucker and Jennifer Love Hewitt, he was one of the industry's greatest action heroes.

I typically try to steer clear of movies where the main character has the same name as the actor portraying him, but for Jackie Chan, I'll make an exception.

If you've grown tired of Chan's ridiculous wise-cracks (see: "Rush Hour"), and childish plots (see: "The Tuxedo"), then "Rumble in the Bronx" is the movie for you. Pay no attention to the weak acting or the paper-thin plot, the focal point of this movie is the heart-stopping action sequences.

"Rumble in the Bronx" is much more than flying fists and death-defying stunts, there's also a lesson to be learned. Jackie reminds us, "Don't let the situation change you. Change it."

Something to think about.
