      commercial action movie

      A soft spot for pure action movies, perhaps a childhood dream. When I was still wearing open-crotch pants, I experienced the charm of such movies in the open-air movies staged in the village. Now, in the era of fast-food movies, that obsession has long since faded, and some are just some good memories.
        After Bruce Lee, there are not many people who have great influence in the world of Chinese Kung Fu. Jet Li is one of them, or the best one, because I personally think that the real Kung...

      Reasons why foreigners discriminate against Chinese

      After watching Dragon Kiss, I want to say something off topic - why are Chinese people discriminated against in foreign countries, some people say that the country is not strong, some people say that the quality is not high, I think it is subconsciously adoring foreigners. Looking at the preferential treatment of foreigners in China, whether it is a preferential policy or a claim for an accident, I want to get a foreign nationality! Let's take a look at the fact that the United States engages...

      Feelings ☮

      Today, when homie came to my house, I just took out the original soundtrack of Kiss Of The Dragon and was playing it (I don’t know why I suddenly took out this CD and played it) I played the first two songs to him and asked him if he remembered us When I was in the fifth grade of elementary school, I listened to him on the road in the car when I went to the spring outing. I forgot something that was too long ago. I didn't remember it. Then I played the 8th Don't Blame It On I. I told him that...

      For the liberation of French prostitutes - "Kiss of the Dragon"

      I admit that I am bored; I also admit that I like Jet Li's martial arts films, so I watched "Dragon Kiss".

      SO, stupid, I saw that Jet Li left thousands of prostitutes in the motherland not to rescue, but went to France to rescue prostitutes, and also rescued the daughters of prostitutes, very good, very powerful! I'm not saying that prostitutes in France should not be rescued. I think that all prostitutes should be rescued. Don't discriminate.

      SO, Jet Li is very good at...

      The single hero broke into the French police station with great momentum. I really don't know that the deadly and brain-dead French people will cooperate with this extremely smeared French, which fully shows the power of my special fighter and the corruption and incompetence of the French police. . . Ha...

      What if a good action movie was made in Hollywood? The police confronted each other and added a prostitute, and then we were stunned to watch Brother Jie kill the Quartet with a face like Huang Shengyi. In short, the actions directed by Jie Ge himself are not picky, but to follow the previous sentence is that Jie Ge is not as spiritual as Jackie Chan, and the killer aura of one punch and one kick cannot win the attention of all the audience. It was Richard who was used by Jie Ge to be the...

      No matter how I look at these kinds of films now, I feel that they are imitating the bourne series, but compared to Li's other films overseas, this one is a bit westernized, but Li's image is a bit...

    1. The tunnel where Jet Li was ambushed by the French police was the tunnel on the right bank of Pontdel'Alma where Princess Diana died accidentally .
    2. In the orphanage, you can see Jessica’s daughter named Isabel Carmen in the list. Isabel is the young actor’s real name, and Carmen comes from the film screenwriter Robert Mark Carmen.

    Evaluation action

    "Kiss of the Dragon" not only has a wonderful martial arts design, beautiful, and unique ingenuity, showing Jet Li's real skills of hard fist and hand-to-hand combat, but also Jet Li's acting skills have become more mature, and the star charm has also been overwhelmed. Jackie Chan. With a clear and active theme of the film, Jet Li successfully portrayed a screen image of a Chinese hero. (Netease Entertainment Review)
