Ride On

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 is actually a good children / teen drama about family and legacy. Jacky Chan, again, proved he can act. He has been producing dramatic movies with dramatic acting time and time again, this is one of them.

Action-wise, Jacky is old and he knows it well. He kept the action scene limited and using stunt doubles, his own stunt team, nonetheless.

This is an entertaining movie for the family but nothing special for Jacky's fans. It lacks the memorable craziness of his old stunts because he is older and wiser.

But Ride On is not about comedic action story, this is a dramatic movie with some comedic action. I would consider it as the trial run for Rush Hour latest sequel.

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.

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.

Jackie Chan's new film is a mixture of action and family drama, adding to that is the bond his character shares with his horse. A washed up stuntman, past his glory days is struggling to meet ends and the debt collector wants to take away his horse. As he fights them off, the video of it goes viral. Soon he learns, the previous owner of his horse is going to take him away, he reaches out to his estranged daughter for one last time, to save the horse and mend their relationship.

The film is filled with tear jerking moments which is pretty much what one asks for when an horse is involved. Those scenes mostly work too. Then there is a video montage of Jackie Chan's classic stunts montage which his character reacts to. Needless to say how that particular scene feels. As far as the screenplay goes, it is the usual run on the mill family drama with few action scenes thrown in to please the fans. The melodrama however is stretched and not all the scenes work as intended.

The father - daughter relationship suffered due to how basic it was and somehow it lacked the desired impact. Maybe that's why the bonding with horse had far more impact. The pace is uneven too and resorts to convenient resolution before ending on a predictable note. Jackie Chan still carries the film on his shoulder and this time not with his action skills but by making Ride On his most emotional performance to date.
