Made in Chinatown

This movie is a true family film that can appeal to so many tastes and interests, e.g., mafia movie buffs, martial arts fans, comedy lovers, etc. The action was really well done and the parody of the mob was hysterical! Great summer flick!

Back in the day New York city had two fascinating cultural phenomenon that captured the public imagination, one was Kung Fu culture brought by cats like Bruce Lee to America. The other was the new york city mob.

In Made in Chinatown you will see the intersection of these two worlds in a hilarious and touching cross over of a classic rock em sock em kungfu Flic paired with an off the wall mob story which ties together all of the major crime families active in the 70s and 80s.

If you dig Kung fu and mob comedy, you can't miss this.

I purchased a copy when it was released and have already watched it with my family several times.

Awesomesauce!!

Tbh I really need more of Lawrence's fabulously flamboyant kung fu. And though the acting is horrendous, the writing does make up for it. Worth a watch.

Imagine if Nineteen-Seventies' Woody Allen made a hip New York City comedy about a turf war between Mafia wise guys and kung-fu Triad gangsters fighting for control of... (wait for it) condiments. Throw in a clueless but sincere Chinese boy who wants to become an Italian wise guy so the girl he loves will love him back. Now welcome a cast of classic gangster-movie tough guys pitted against legendary Chinese kung-fu movie stars. "Made in Chinatown" writer/producer Mark Wiley is my close friend, a frequent business associate over the years, and I was briefly cast as the Commissioner in this movie. Even so, cineastes, enjoy this show, which is smart as a whip and gloriously corny all at once, and introduces, in Mark Wiley, a major new talent. Kirk out.

This is a really nice first film from Mark Wiley! It is an enjoyable film - funny and cute! Look for some awesome character actors! Mark's humor and passion comes through!!
