Description: Born Kong-sang Chan on April 7, 1954 in Hong Kong, Chan commenced his movie career in the early 1970’s. To date, he has starred in over 140 films, at least 110 in China, before expanding to the US market in the mid 1990’s. Chan is best known for making jaw-dropping action films loaded with amazing stunt work, combined with slapstick humor. Here is a modest list of some of my favorite Jackie Chan Films.
