Jackie Chan: My Stunts (1999 Video)
7/10
Uncovers a surprising number of filmmaking secrets
21 July 2020
It's surprisingly transparent, and sort of like watching a magician reveal his own tricks. I guess Jackie Chan was getting older, and probably willing to pass on his knowledge to others, given that his super crazy stunting days were behind him by 1999.

It's a little static, sometimes feels a bit dated, and at times feels more like an instructional video than a documentary, which was surprising/refreshing, yet perhaps less entertaining to some extent. It's nevertheless still fun and interesting. Also stands as one of the most painful/ action-packed documentaries I've ever seen.

Also: how the heck have I watched so many Jackie Chan movies without registering what all the white powder was for??? Or simply wonder before this documentary why there was so much powder everywhere?????
