In which the Monsters and Mister joins me in reviewing RUMBLE IN THE BRONX (1995) currently streaming on HBO Max. Directed by Stanley Tong, with a script by Edward Tang and Fibe Ma, the story follows Keung (Jackie Chan), a young man who’s come from Hong Kong for his Uncle Bill’s wedding. Keung gets caught up in the dramatics of a local gang and is targeted by them but ultimately rises up and stands up for the gang when he takes on some big baddies who’ve come to claim some priceless jewels that were lost. A fun watch, a little salty language, great fight sequences and good performances round out this piece and make it a must see. The film is rated R and clocks in at 1 h 27 m. Please note there are a few SPOILERS in this review.
