i can sum up first strike in one word : awesome .
never in my life have i seen an actor as insanely dedicated as jackie chan .
for the simple reason that he has performed his own stunts in his every movie he 's ever appeared in , he should be awarded greatly .
the same tom and jerry formula that was used to make chan 's rumble in the bronx and supercop so entertaining can be found here as well .
however , first strike was probably the most exciting out of the three , for the simple reason that practice makes perfect .
his last two movies were almost like practice and this one was great .
like rumble , this film is about the mafia , the former kgb .
now chan must do battle in the freezing arctic temperatures of the ukraine against a group of very large bad men .
the trailer for the film sums it up quite well .
first strike is action - packed , but the fight scenes are so fast and furious , they almost have a witty , italian - like humor to them .
jackie chan is a regular comedian .
well , he 's no eddie murphy , but he can really crack you up .
for example , he is hanging off a roof and he humorously taunts his foes to come and get him , as he claims to be the korean 007
( that 's secret agent james bond ) .
even the plot to this film improved above the others , as a sort - of twisted nuclear - weapon smuggling deal is botched and jackie takes the blame .
but never fear , as the chinese mafia aids him in uncovering the truth behind the incident .
with some of the most high - flying stunts and side - splitting comedy , first strike is a sure - fire hit that 's guaranteed to draw some major , world - wide attention
