BIG TROUBLE IN LITTLE CHINA MOVIE PAGE
BIG TROUBLE IN LITTLE CHINA(1986)
You want to know how great Kurt Russell is? First watch Ghost!
Then, after wiping the tears from your eyes, watch this, but keep
the hanky handy, as you will be wiping your eyes again, this time
from laughter!!!!
This is a great, great movie with an enormous amount of fun!! Perhaps
the best comic book type movie ever made! Certainly John Carpenter's
best effort! One of my favorites starring Kurt Russell!! A++
From a reviewer at IMDb.com:
John Carpenter's career peaked with Big Trouble in Little China -- and
what a peak it is. No other director/writer has attempted to create
what Carpenter did in the 80's. Why this took so long to come to DVD
is beyond me. This movie makes the best mix of cavalier anti-heroes,
humorous villains, dark magic overtones, and good old fashioned fight
scenes (done up as a mix of kung fu with old west shoot-em-up).
Those who don't like this movie don't get it's inherent self-deprecatory
theme. This movie is all about fun. If you don't get it, see a doctor about
your broken funny bone! - journeyman_steve
