Ride On

Iam a big fan of Jackie Chan, i became very happy that he did a new movie, i put it directly in my watchlist. The cast is ok there is a little bit drama but not that much. The horse did the job very well. He act as smart as a dog witch is impressive. Jackie Chan stel move smoothly and its impressive to as he is old now.

The cast have a good message but there is some questions as Jackie chan was cared well about the relationship between him and his horse but doesnt did the same about his relationship with his daughter in early life? Why he broke up with his wife att why who raised up the daughter when her mother passed away when she was in very young age?

Overall the movie is a good movie and the style is more American than Chinese. I enjoyed watching this movie and i recommend to give it a try.

Washed-up stunt man Jackie Chan has papers served on him to take his horse. He meets with estranged daughter Haocun Liu to find a lawyer, and she puts forth her geeky boy friend.

It's Jackie Chan and a horse, which is all fans like me need to make us happy for a couple of hours. Even if Chan is going to be seventy on his next birthday, and his stunts are achieved by close-up, short takes, and actually having stunt men in the longer shots, I can still enjoy Chan's sense of humor, and the fact that this is a movie where he actually acts, with a story about an old man growing up, and the dedication to taking real risks to make good movies that stunt men have shown for more than a hundred years.

And it's a very handsome horse.

Not the best but also it's good to watch with your family

The view in this movie was so beautiful and awesome

Also it's good if you watch the movie without thinking about things because it's just like you watch a clips of a comedy show

You can also see how much this movie focusing on the relationship between the child and the dad and mom

The relationship between the man and the horse was sweet and beautiful

I was sad because they didn't give a chance for other characters and n the movie and focusing on the horse and the man 😐

But that doesn't mean it's a bad movie it's still fun to watched

I feel bad for the movie reviews because it's bad and the movie wasn't that bad actually.

It's a role that's perfect for Chan as he plays an aged stuntman who hit hard times in every sense of the word, which forces him to confront the sacrifices he made in his life in the personification of his daughter who he lost contact with, but he gets a second chance thanks to his love of a horse he's trained to do stunts.

If Jackie Chan was attempting to get that Oscar it was a good attempt. The man has spent 50 years physically giving his all on the big screen as an action star. Now in his old age he's trying to give it all emotionally as an actor and there was no better movie to do it in than Ride On, where he has nothing but empathy with what his character must be going through.

Jackie Chan maybe seasoned but he's got the experience to make his most basic tricks still exciting. The fight scenes are smaller and less dangerous, but that rhythm is still like a dancer doing the two steps with feeling. He's still got it and he's still doing it right!

On, and that horse that acts like his co-star. That horse was doing some really good acting. I was feeling everything it was doing.

Ride On is also one of those great movies about movies. One of the greatest stuntmen in the world gives us a look at the history of stuntmen from where Jackie Chan came from to where China is now with the stuntman now.

Always a little nervous with Jackie Chan movies now that he's pushing 70 but he seems to understand his lane with Ride On and it was amazing to just role with it.

Ride On has the distinction of being an international Jackie Chan film that has something for everyone. For hardcore Jackie Chan fans it has its share of martial arts, stunt choreography, and comedic interludes. However, it is a family friendly film that has a poignant and powerful message about love and family. Finally, it has a stunt horse, and everyone loves a horse that can act and do stunts.

Larry Yang did a create job creating the story of a down and out, fictional stunt man that is modeled, in many ways, after Chan himself. In fact, the film pays such deep homage to Chan's work that many of the scenes incorporate Chan's style and fight choreography. More significantly, the film walks the razor's edge by using historical film clips and injury outakes of Chan's real life, but still maintaining its fictitious persona. Under this guise the audience is getting a Jackie Chan film that, simultaneously, pays homage to Chan's own career.

Chan has matured as an actor and he does a good job here playing the role of a man coming to grips with his age, his family struggles, and his financial hardships. He is very good in this role and he is very likable. Lia Haocun is, particularly, good as his estranged daughter with a legal mind. She is so good that many international social media outlets were sharing a scene from the film and identifying her as his actual daughter.

As the film pays tribute to the legacy of Jackie Chan, it was great to see Wu Jing and Shi Yanngeng in the roles of model cinematic characters, which they actually are.

While the film is family friendly, it is not a children's movie. It has something for adults and children, and the themes are very adult and serious, despite some funny scenes. There is plenty of action and adventure for the viewer looking for more than simply a tribute film, or just a family friendly animal picture. There is a martial arts, action film very much alive in Ride On.

The real star of the film is the horse. He is well trained and fun to watch on screen. Chan's paternal relationship with him transcends the ordinary, and is executed in a powerful, heartfelt, and moving way. This is the heart of the film.

While this film is Chinese made for a Chinese audience, it does have international appeal. If you are lover of Jackie Chan, and appreciate his voluminous archive of work, you will like this a lot. However, you don't need to know anything about Jackie Chan to appreciate and enjoy this move. I liked it a lot, and I recommend it.

The film is in Mandarin with English Subtitles.
