I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.
hyped garbage
In truth, there is barely enough story here to make a film.
An old-fashioned movie made with new-fashioned finesse.
JACKIE CHAN: MY STORY is a nice little straight-to-video documentary exploring the life in film of the world's number one martial artist. Sure, it's dated and cheesy in places, but it's also fast-paced and cheerful and features plenty of interview clips with the man himself. As expected, this documentary is padded out with various fight scenes from Jackie's movies dating between the 1970s and the 1990s. More interestingly, it has brief interview snippets - often culled from behind-the-scenes footage or red carpet news footage - with various celebrities chatting about the great man. There's little to dislike about this enjoyable effort overall.
If you are a fan of Jackie Chan, this documentary is the best you can see on him. It Shows you how great of a man he really is and it also gives you great behind the scenes looks at what he is like at work. He also goes into detail about some of his greatest movies and some of the inspirations in his life.
