    Movie synopsis

    A cult favorite (and one of director John Carpenter's personal favorites), BIG TROUBLE IN LITTLE CHINA is a fantasy-action film that is brilliantly imaginative, funny, and absorbing. Kurt Russell plays hard-boiled truck driver Jack Burton, who gets caught in a bizarre conflict within, and underneath, San Francisco's Chinatown. An ancient Chinese prince and Chinatown crimelord has kidnapped a beautiful green-eyed woman, who is the fiancee to Jack's best friend. Jack must help his friend rescue the girl before the evil Lo Pan uses her to break the ancient curse that keeps him a fleshless and immortal spirit. Carpenter uses all the best elements of martial arts films, 1940s old action serials, Chinese mythology and straight-forward American adventure to make up a tale wild with imagination. Kurt Russell is wonderful as the brash, brave, and reluctant hero Jack Burton, who is hysterically out of place in this world of magic potions, goblins and curses. A visually stunning work that ranks as one of Carpenter's best films.

    Big Trouble in little China a classic!

    Created: 02/03/08
    This is a great movie to add to you collection, it is where Indiana Jones meets Kung Fu. It never slows down from start to finish, no computer/cgi in this movie, only smoke, mirrors and wires. A sequel or prequel would be welcome only if it mirrored this one in everyway. This for me is one of my top 5 favorites, no sex, gore, and the language was minimal, it just tells a great story!

    A true American classic.

    Created: 04/06/06
    I loved the Main charecters attitude towards what was going on through out the movie. Its a great movie that encompasses martial arts, mystiscism, love, comedy and friendship.
