RE: (Eng/Jpn) Why Hong Kong people hate Jackie Chan? どうして香港人はジャッキー・チャンが嫌いなのか。
I won't call him a kung fu guy, to me he is more of a clown than a kung fu martial art artist. Bruce Lee is a martial art artist, Donnie Yan is a martial artist, but Jackie Chan is a stunt clown, i mean he can fight and have comedies but what he does most is jump buildings and got his funny face during kicks and occasionally strip himself naked. The one that i would compare him to is the Rock, both looks similar in terms of the comedy and "fights". Calling them both martial art artist is humiliating to real martial art artist!! But i would sincerely thank him for bring Hong Kong Movie industry to the world but his personal life is a dick
Agree with those that look-so-nice fight movement in movies are different from real martial art. Kung Fu in movie meant to be big and impressive but it may not be practical in real fight. So we call Jackie a movie star. Never heard people called him a martial art artist.
