Xun zhao Cheng Long

I watched it twice the first time was back in 2010 and forgot about this movie and watched it again recently and I enjoyed the movie both times it's not the best movie but it's not the worst either this film is about Jackie's fan who just wants to meet him and learn from him and due to movie strict budget it also feels like it actually made by a fan

This is not Jackie Chan's movie calling it Jackie Chan kung fu master is disgraceful on prime video I watched thinking I must have missed this movie but halfway through the movie I realized that I watched this movie before because Jackie is only around 5 min in the whole movie

If you are a Jackie fan then watch the movie but it definitely didn't age that well.

I think the thing throwing people off here is the title. The original Chinese title is "Looking for Jackie Chan" which does describe the plot of the movie. That being said, there is only a little bit of Jackie Chan in this movie. But come on, a movie can be plenty good with other people.

This is just the story of a really dorky kid looking for his idol. It's fun, has just a touch of fantasy and a lot of silliness. Sure, it has some quaint morality themes in it, but none of those stop this from being a fun family movie, the kind of thing that was so much fun to watch when I was a kid. Watch it, enjoy it, and stop being such a pretentious person just because it doesn't have that much Chan in it.

Obey your elders and grandmother, obey the police, learn Chinese as well as official Chinese history, go from the "periphery" (Chinese diaspora or Hongkong) to the "centre" Bejing to properly fit in. Don't follow skateboard, own thought or other strange things. No own will, we're Chinese!

Begin of the plot: A young kid is bullied by his peers on a Chinese school in Indonesia. He dreams about Cheng Long aka Jackie Chan and gets frenetical about him. Thus he follows him to Bejing, even with low knowledge of written Chinese etc.

Will this fervour make him disciple of Jackie Chan's at the end?

Utterly bad Communist Party agitprop playing a nationalist card to kinsmen abroad. The 2 stars are only for some freckles of irony and choreography. Waste of time.

I love Jackie Chan as an actor, so I was pretty psyched to pick this one up at Redbox. I thought I was in for some awesome Jackie Chan action.. Boy, was I wrong. Putting Jackie Chan in big letters across the title and even having him on the cover is pretty much false advertising.

The whole movie is about some whiny kid who looks for Jackie, finds him (Jackie gets about 5 minutes of screen time), and then the movie ends. Out of all the movies I've ever watched, I'd place it in the bottom 5. It's that bad.

Save your dollar for something else.

When I bought this movie from Amazon it was under the impression of it actually being a Jackie Chan movie. Be warned though, that this is not a usual Jackie Chan movie at all, he is in it, sure, but as a guest actor only.

And to make matters worse, the DVD is titled "Jackie Chan & the Kung Fu Kid", and the movie cover here on IMDb is titled "Kung Fu Master", but in reality the movie is titled "Looking For Jackie Chan". What is up with these lame alterations of movie titles? Sure I can understand the movie company's attempt to cash in on the popularity of the remake of "The Karate Kid", but this is just downright outrageous and scandalous. It suckers people into buying the movie under false pretenses.

Anyway, the story in "Looking For Jackie Chan" is about young Chinese boy Zhang Yi-Shan who is going to school in Indonesia, bullied by classmates and failing classes, he sets out on a quest to go to Beijing, China, and seek out Jackie Chan in order to become his disciple and learn Kung Fu from him.

"Looking For Jackie Chan" is sort of a family type movie, but I assume that you have to be a Chinese family to fully appreciate this movie. I, as a Westerner, found the story to be adequate, though I felt cheated with the fake movie title on the DVD cover.

The DVD cover said, and I quote, "essential for any Chan fans". Well, I will have to put a big question mark at that statement. This is hardly a Jackie Chan movie. He just have a small supporting guest role. This is the story of a boy's journey, of coming to terms with himself, the world around him, respecting himself and his elders, and a sort of rites of passage movie. Hardly an essential Chan movie.

I am not saying that the movie in itself is bad, just don't sit down to watch it with expectations of it being a traditional Jackie Chan movie, and don't actually expect to see a lot of him on the screen. Watch it for what it is, a family movie about a boy setting out to find his idol, and that's it.
