  Afeter watching a seemingly endless slew of shit films of recent, thank the stars for this nice suprise featuring Jackie Chan. 'The Foreigner' starring Chan and Pierce Brosnan in the leads is a more dramatic and dare i say, slightly more grounded turn by Chan but it reallly works and hopefully he will appar in more films of this ilk. The film basically tells of Chan's resturant owner father living in the uk whose daughter is killed in a terrorist attack and his attempts to track down those responsible. Whilst there are martial arts on Chans partthey are certainlty less fantastical than in his previous films but it compliments the tone of the film really well. Pierce Brosnan delivers his best performance in many years here in my opinion. Suggest giving this a looksee.

  Hopefully this finds you, Dony and others having checked out the film. It really is Jackie Chan's finest in many a year and proof that the fella can do a decent thriller/dramatic turn as opposed to what he is usully typecast doing. It's not secret but the terrorist attack  concerned and those he attempts to track down are the connected in some shape or form with the IRA (makes a change after the stearotype nowadays when it comes to terrorist attacks in film and tv shows).

  This is certainly Chan's safest bet in years..and it gives him chance to flex his dramatic acting muscles as well. If this offering is anything to go by, he should grab more roles of a simaler dramatic ilk (may not have much choice soon..after all, he is not getting any younger). Once again, i thought Pierce Brosnan was phenomenal in this..gotta be my favourite performance of his since his bond days by far.
