BIG TROUBLE IN LITTLE CHINA MOVIE REVIEW | 31:12 - 34:27
Big Trouble In Little China Movie Description :
Kurt Russell plays hard-boiled truck driver Jack Burton, who gets caught in a bizarre conflict within, and underneath, San Francisco's Chinatown. An ancient Chinese prince and Chinatown crime lord has kidnapped a beautiful green-eyed woman, who is the fiancee to Jack's best friend. Jack must help his friend rescue the girl before the evil Lo Pan uses her to break the ancient curse that keeps him a fleshless and immortal spirit.
Big Trouble in Little China (also known as John Carpenter's Big Trouble in Little China) is a 1986 American fantasy martial arts action-comedy film directed by John Carpenter and starring Kurt Russell, Kim Cattrall, Dennis Dun and James Hong. The film tells the story of Jack Burton, who helps his friend Wang Chi rescue Wang's green-eyed fiancée from bandits in San Francisco's Chinatown. They go into the mysterious underworld beneath Chinatown, where they face an ancient sorcerer named David Lo Pan, who requires a woman with green eyes to marry him in order to release him from a centuries-old curse.
Although the original screenplay by first-time screenwriters Gary Goldman and David Z. Weinstein was envisioned as a Western set in the 1880s, screenwriter W. D. Richter was hired to rewrite the script extensively and modernize it. The studio hired Carpenter to direct the film and rushed Big Trouble in Little China into production so that it would be released before a similarly themed Eddie Murphy film, The Golden Child, which was slated to come out around the same time. The project fulfilled Carpenter's long-standing desire to make a martial arts film.
The film was a commercial failure, grossing $11.1 million in North America, below its estimated $19 to $25 million budget. It received mixed reviews that left Carpenter disillusioned with Hollywood and influenced his decision to return to independent filmmaking. It has since become a cult classic and has a 78% average rating on Rotten Tomatoes and a steady audience on home video.

I Did Some Research On This Movie After I Watched It And I Found Out That The Only Reason This Movie Was Made Was So That They Could Compete With "The Golden Child." They Rushed This Movie For It To Come Out Before "The Golden Child," That's Also Why I Kept Feeling Like Watching The Golden Child After This And I'm Guessing Why The Pacing Was So Fast... Please Share And Like This Video.
I like your videos and one of my favorite movie
I've been looking forward to this one!
Golden child is classic as well.
i already thought that it is similar style to "The golden child" (american experiencing asian myth) .. but also "The Shadow" fits this schema :)
8 thought It Was Similar Too, Thats Why I Brought It Up A Couple Times In My Video. Now I Know Why
Honestly I'd rather Hollywood not remake this. It's perfect as is.
I agree. They would totally ruin it.
A sequel has been in the talks for some time with The Rock ( Dwayne Johnson ) in the main role.
@@Mange070 I hope not
The problem is, Dwayne Johnson would be totally believable as a big action hero. Jack Burton is a more simple, everyman hero.
Hollywood can suck my taint. They ruin everything now.
_"Oh! He's in this movie too?"_
Dude, James Hong is in every movie. Hollywood needs to make a movie about _him._
Seinfeld?
Party of four?😉
@@richardrobbin2225 CARTWRIGHT!
James Hong is one of my favorite actors and voice actors. He's in so much stuff and really underappreciated by Hollywood.
@@Rakerong LMAO!!!
Hollywood IS a movie about him
"Shut up Mr. Burton! You were not brought upon this Earth to 'get it.'" One of my all-time favorite villain one-liners.
"Oh this piss me off to NO END!!!"
This is my go to line when someone questions something to me they don't understand or get.
Are you crazy is that your problem?! 🤣🤣 love the porkchop Express 🤣🤣
Mine too.
This is probably one of the MOST quotable movies EVAR! (And I LOVE it!) So anyone can take their pick of favorite lines and not be wrong.
I'm supposed to buy this shit? 2000 years and you can't find one broad to fit the bill? Come on Dave, you must be doing something seriously wrong!
Honestly, I love this film because it felt like what a video game film should be.
That's a really good description. Spot on.
Yes!
Man, you’re right. It’s so perfectly broken into levels with bosses at various points.
I feel like it has to be made now.
This is about the only movie didn't make a video game
Jack Burton thinks he's the hero, but the movie shows Wang is the hero and Jack is his sidekick! ❤️
For sure. But yet he ends up killing the bad guy "all with his reflexes" lol and gets to be "hero" anyway .... but literally no where involved in any of the other fights cause he's fumbling around something
Maybe co-heroes. I wouldn't call Jack a liability, or a weak link in the chain.
absolutely, I remember as a little kid when I first saw it. Wang totally surprised me with his skills, I was more interested in him, but Jack always got me with his sayings.
"You leave Jack alone," Egg Shen
Yeah that’s why they filmed the intro to give Jack some validity as the hero but he really wasn’t
"Have ya paid your dues, Jack?" "Yes sir, the check is in the mail."
And it only bounced once.. lol
I absolutely love this movie. It wasn't a box office hit at the time of its release, but repeated showings on cable TV, the weird blend of martial arts and sorcery, and a quirky sense of humor helped to make it a cult classic.
oh yeah, kid me ate this up like PB & J, Fantasy is one of my fave genres so this was right up my alley.
It was actually one of the first movies to fail at the box office but go on to be a huge hit on video rental.
I grew up with this movie. I consider it a childhood classic.
Same. This and The Goonies defined my childhood. Legendary “adventure” movies!
@@elder_exxer7875 the monster squad , The lost boys , fright night ... Never again will there be decade of great films like the 80s
There's a dude on yt grimm life I think his channel is he visits goonies lost boys locations mostly classic movies locations kinda cool
Me too.
So do i, Kurt def one of my fav actors
Kurt said he was doing his best John Wayne impression in the opening. And alot throughout the movie too.
i'd believe it, he was oozing machissmo throughout the movie.
And in Escape From New York he's doing Clint Eastwood XD
Have you played your dues?
When my brother and watched this in the 80s when we were kids, we would forever rewind that scene of that guy screaming then blowing up. We would die laughing every single time.
He looked like a Garbage Pail Kid at the end.
@@reikun86 And then blew up like someone threw a bowl of salad. I love it.
@@swordspace2000 Heh heh heh. Good stuff :)
@@swordspace2000 yes! I always called it the tossed salad scene.
The tone is so good, I appreciated even as a kid seeing a clumsy, flawed protagonist. Arnold, Van Damme & Stallone were admirable but unrelatable, impossibly buff and always knowing exactly what to do. I couldn't plan to grow up a superhero, growing a mullet and become a trucker who stumbles into adventures seemed like a reasonable plan by comparison
❤️
Thank you for this. Big Trouble in Little China is one of those movies that I show everyone, it's a guaranteed great time. I blooming love this movie.
One of my favorite John Carpenter movies
Mine too. :D
dude, its one of my ALL time favourite movies
One of the best action movies to come out of the 80's it doesn't take itself too seriously but it's action scenes are cool and it has a FREAKING BEHOLDER IN IT with Chinese WIZARDS fighting an AMERICAN TRUCK DRIVER. What more can you want?
It's rather odd that so many people seem to remember that Jack is some badass who can do no wrong, and yeah he ends up being a badass in his own way, but Snake Plissken he is not. Compared to Snake he's a dork. And that's what I like about Jack, he's no mercenary or crack shot, but he saves the day with perseverance and heart... and his friend does all the ass-kicking for him lol.
Fun fact, there was a sequel comic and that weird ape monster becomes Jack's ride-along buddy, ala Han Solo and Chewbacca.
I need a name for the comic so i can track it down
@@Maioly As it turns out there are several, some being minis and others being an established series.
Makes sense, Jack here is a Han Solo type of guy. Hero sure, but a little too cocky and a tendancy to goof ... just imagine Han chasing the troopers like an idiot on the DS1 etc...
i've watched this movie about once a month for probably 30 years and it never gets old
I am always 3 clicks from watching this on my phone or computer.
😊❤️
Imagine being a kid in the 80's and renting this from Blockbuster. Pure joy.
When I rented it in the 80s, the place I went was almost the size of a small living room.
That's also when I found my love of Zombie movies.
I was 13 and my brother was 9.
They would let us rent any movie.
Rating be damned.
The vhs box art was just so appealing
This was written by the writer of The Adventures of Buckaroo Banzai (1984), supposedly as a sequel to that film. It did poorly at the box office so it was apparently rewritten. Oddly enough, this film was also not a hit. Like Banzai, this became a revered cult movie. Btw Buckaroo Banzai is another film like this.. a cult movie with a crazy good cast, crazy weird plot. Starring Peter Weller (Robocop), John Lithgow (Dexter, 3rd Rock from the Sun), Chris Lloyd (Back to the Future) and Jeff Goldblum (Jurassic Park).
I really liked Buckaroo Banzai. Clancy Brown was also in the film (Mr. Krabs)
My favorite part about this movie is that Kurt Russell is a side kick in his own movie.
I still love getting a round of shots for my pals and announcing, "TIME FOR THE MEDICINE!" since I saw this movie-- and reached legal booze age, I saw this when I was 7~
This might be one of the most Carpenter movies he's done in his career, it's got everything; adventure, horrors, magic, mystery, kickass characters, humor, and awesome music. If the 80s were the nachos of movies, John Carpenter was the idea of adding jalapenos and chicken and steak and sour cream and such!
I love the weird and super vibrant tone of this movie! It's so unique, imaginitive, and uplifting. Maximum comfy vibes watching it with Mell!
Classic. The '80's wasn't the best time ever, but it was a great time to be a kid when it came to movies and tv shows. This was when Hollywood was still willing to take risks on weird creative stories. This was one of those movies you grew up on without ever actually making an effort to go see it or watch it from start to finish. It was always something you found flipping through the channels and had to keep watching whenever you saw it. I love this shit.
It's my favorite media decade.
I was 5 years old when this came out. Saw it upon video release. 35 Glorious Jack Burton years and I haven't missed one year.
I have loved this movie since I was a child! I'm 38 now and watching you enjoy the movie made me laugh so hard! I have been on a binge of your videos and I'm enjoying every single one! 😄👍
This is the 80s. I'm very happy to have grown up through the 80s and 90s. It was glorious.
Kurt’s role was supposed to be the hero but he saw so much potential in Wang’s character that he pushed to make it even bigger. And he ended up the sidekick but it’s still one of his most iconic roles.
The actor who played Egg Shen was in another John Carpenter movie called “Prince of Darkness” that was really disturbing and scary.
No one ever notice this, but with the exception of Jack throwing the knife at Lo-Pan's head....Jack kills no one in the film and the majority of the time, He is either beat up or knocked out. ...also...this is my #1 all time favorite movie.
That's not quite true. He kills the armoured soldier with his knife and is then pinned under him, he also kills some guys with his gun after forgetting to take the safety off first. He even remarks that its not the first time he has killed a guy (though is probably lying)
@@pinkyperky3506 the Armoured guard has nothing in it(it's a reanimated suit of armour)...when Jack stabs it, it breaks the enchantment and is another foil for Jack to be detained(part of the on going gag-Jack getting tied up or knocked out while everyone else is fighting-he even missed the majority of the fight cause he was knocked out)....and Jack randomly "pray & spray" absolutely don't count. Basically, this is why Jack is the sidekick and not the hero.
@@RalphBednarski I agree that Jack is the sidekick and not the hero, I'm just pointing out that lo pan is not the first person jack kills in the movie. Shooting the guys dead with his gun absolutely does count as killing someone, even though it is played for laughs. He literally points his gun at them, pulls the triggers, realises the safety is on, then does it again this time killing them with the full intention of doing so and specifically references killing them immediately afterwards.
"First time you ever plugged a guy?"
"No....of course not!"
As for the armour being reanimated , I'm not sure what you base that on or how a pocket knife would "break the curse". The armour would fall apart afterwards of that was the case, but he is pinned down by the weight of the person inside.
Good chat, I love this movie!
@@pinkyperky3506 They showed at one point, that the Armoured guard(s) were just suites of Armour standing against the wall and they were reanimated...as for the knife and all weapons were "blessed" by Eggchen before Jack and the guys drank the special drink/liquor and went into the elevator. Jack is a natural idiot and exaggerates stories to add to his ego...the only skill Jack has is fast reflexes(and they show this several times throughout the movie).
Dun was 34 years old when he did this movie, and yet he could still pass as a teen. Wow!
Asian don't raisen
This movie is so unapologetically itself and I love it
I heard she'd cry for fifteen minutes every time they put those contacts in, some scenes you can kind of tell.
One of my faves as a kid and still as an adult.
Listen to Kurt Russel when he delivers lines like, "What the hell!" The whole thing is an homage to John Wayne.
Exactly. In Escape from NY he did the whole thing with a Clint Eastwood voice, and this one as John Wayne. That's the gag.
"This guy has a knife " hmm don't worry about what Jack does
Omg I swear to god your literally reacting to every classic movie I grew up watching. The best of the best, I got this movie on a Christmas and wow it's a action packed spoof of the triads
The cone heads is another great spoof
This is one of my all time fav movies as a kid, I could watch it anytime it comes on, and can quote it as I watch it. Glad to see you enjoyed it :D
I just love the
Jack Burton/Star Lord connection. He kinda thinks people should know who he is.
Who??
* Guardians of the Galaxy: Volume 2 reference.
I consider Big Trouble in Little China the first superhero movie done right.
Yup...Big trouble in Little China was ahead of it’s time...MCU basically got it’s humor style from this movie...
I'm glad to see you appreciate the fine work of James Hong. He is an absolute legend and holds more credited roles in cinema than most actors in history.
Jeebus.... 448 credited roles...... Wow...
This movie is an absolute classic and does NOT need a reboot. You can never capture the same chemistry as the classics.
This is one of my favourite movies of all time. The set design, the action, the script, the casting, the costumes, everything is pretty much perfect. I don't even know how you would remake this movie. It's pretty much perfect for what it is.
8:20 that character actually is the inspiration for Raiden in Mortal Kombat. Shang Tsung was inspired by Lo Pan.
When this movie came out in the theater, it was a huge flop because people didn’t know what to make of it. No one had ever seen a action hero basically be a fool, while the sidekick does all the work. This movie is brilliant as a comedy.
Gotta watch Berry Gordy's The Last Dragon. Same kinda feel as this but with a Motown twist. It's a classic. Sho Nuff
Maybe he'll learn who the master is. Sho Nuff. Also who can forget Bruce Lee...roy
"How did they market this back in the 80's?"
Poorly. Despite greenlighting the script pretty much as it was shot, the studio didn't really understand it. They kind of pushed it as a pure action/adventure movie and not very enthusiastically. It bombed on release. It found it's audience a few years later on home video.
"The Thing" also bombed and wasn't really appreciated until like a decade later.
Mello! This is one of my all time favorites man. I saw it when I was about ten years old and I've been Jack Burton at many a Halloween.
It's all in the reflexes baby!
Carpenter writes or co-writes the music for most of his movies. He also wrote the famous Halloween theme himself. When asked about his film scores, he said he's not the best composer out there, but he is cheapest composer he knows. Synthwave and Darkwave fans (music styles inspired by late 70's, early 80's synth based film scores) keep Carpenter in high regard. Carpenter was also hired to make the music for PlayStation 1 game Sentinel Returns (sequel to a weird, surreal, Sci-Fi themed 3-D puzzle game "Sentinel"). I had that on PS (the original I played on C-64) and sometimes I would just put the disk on a CD player and listen to the level soundtrack, which was recorded on the disk as regular CD music tracks.
Army of Darkness, Golden Child, and Big Trouble classics
Damn, Id forgot all about this movie, gotta rewatch it now lol
OH SNAP! Try the 1980s Overboard. Kurt Russel and Goldie Hawn at their best.
Tombstone was Kurt Russel at his best.
😄 Believe it or not, In that time it was still quite usual to show a real, unedited picture of somebody to someone.
John Carpenter was a musical pioneer. He really inspired a lot of future composers in addition to his ability as a director.
"We really shook the pillars of heaven, eh?" My friend and I always quote this to each other after some kind of adventure. What a fun movie.
Raiden and Shang Tsung were actually inspired by the Three Storms and Lo Pan respectively, yeah.
Jack knocking himself out by shooting into the ceiling and the movie cutting back to his passed out body kills me every time, lmao!
Love Lo Pan and Egg Shen's beam of war battle with the two ancient warriors swordfighting.
There's a small comic that explains the ending. Because Jack killed Lo Pan, the monster is bound to serve and follow him until he dies.
The original script was supposed to be in the 1870’s, but the studio insisted on contemporary Chinatown.
The John Wayne impression makes more sense
11:23 - Kurt Russell made one of the best transitions from being one of the nerdiest Disney child actors to being one of the most badass grown movie stars.
24:52 Yes! Do so!
Also, my dad showed this to me when I was 8, & it was mesmerizing. Also, John Carpenter & Kurt Russell also made "The Thing" together, quite the tonal shift...
Yeah, saw it twice in theaters, so great. Blew my teenage mind and got me into Chinese mythology and martial arts films.
I saw this for the first time as a kid ( i was about 8) on TV in the late 80’s with my cousin during some holidays. I was blown away. When I got back to school, I talked about this movie and no one would believe that such a movie actually existed. I love this movie so much, great OST as well.
"BTILC" is one of my best childhood affective memories. This is the ultimate face of 80's.
@Mellverse I envy you so much wish I could have the joy of seeing this for the first time. John Carpenter is an amazing director.
Kurt Russell actually had a lot of experience playing a nerd when he worked for Disney in those old movies from the sixties. :-)
Interesting Fact: Kurt Russell started off as a "Disney Kid" in Disney Movies. That's how he could play a "nerd" so well. He wanted to get away from that typecast, so that's why he played in this movie and "The Thing".
The commentary audio with Carpenter and Russell on this movie is interesting and pretty funny, they speak about how the producers back then never understood that Wang was the real hero and Burton the sidekick, among other things.
If you listen to one commentary audio once, I strongly suggest this one 😉
the special effects for the lightning is just amazing to look at
Third comment because goddamn I enjoyed this! Your love of film is infectious and this is coming from someone else who utterly loves movies! Never lose the love!
"That sound like a problem for the Ghostbusters!"
Same VFX crew. This was their very next project.
"What inspired John Carpenter to make this film?"
The script was originally a Western. It was based on The Tong Wars, an actual bloody conflict between Chinese criminal organizations in San Francisco's Chinatown in the 1880's. The Cinemax/HBO show "Warrior" is set during these events. Jack Burton was originally a cowboy and the whole thing was about getting his horse back instead of his truck.
Carpenter was inspired to make this movie after seeing the Hong Kong movie "Zu: Warriors from the Magic Mountain" by Tsui Hark, which is even more gonzo crazypants than this movie. Tsui Hark was inspired to make Zu after seeing Star Wars. He hired some of the Star Wars VFX crew to make it.
Love this movie so much, childhood favourite. Another great Kurt Russel movie is Overboard and he stars in it with Goldie Hawn who he was already going out with at the time and they are still together till this day so the chemistry is great and believable
John Carpenter and Kurt Russell are an excellent duo!! Big Trouble, Escape from NY and LA, The Thing. All great movies!!
As a 10 year old I loved this film when I saw it on the big screen on school holidays. Nostalgia but yes. A great film.
If you do the halloween costume of Kurt Russel, we want a video of it!! Mullet and everything!
Probably Will Have It With A Movie Reaction, Maybe Halloween The Movie
@@HelloMellowXVI The hype is real XD
Love the movie, always have. Love the review....great to see someone watching it for the first time and appreciating the different elements of it!!
Can you do The Last Dragon starring Taimak
Love that movie!! Julius Curry was awesome in that movie. Loved him Lord Bowler in Brisco County jr!
Yes!
Definitely needs to watch that movie. Sho Nuff. It was one of the few great Blaxploitation movies. Motown Kung Fu.. definitely a unique movie.
Brother introduced me when I was like 12-15 or something. I showed it to my son (15) a couple weeks ago and he thought it was great!
Kurt Russell's nerdy guy in this movie kind of reminds me of a Chris Farley character in some ways. Love it.
The glasses and suit reminds me a lot of the man who lives in a van down by the river.
Mel doesn’t think that it would work... Kurt as a Nerd. 😂
Disney says, “He’s the COMPUTER THAT WORE TENNIS SHOES!”
Kurt would laugh so hard. Oh, man...thanks for that.
Omg! Thank you for that reference. My dad loved that movie as a kid, I still have his copy on vhs along with “The Strongest Man in the world”
@@michelef3398 there's also ' now you see him, now you don't.'
@@CannonRaw I’ll have to check that one out.
Yoooo...I practically screamed that at my phone, "Dude! He's the lead in The Computer Wore Tennis Shoes!" Doesn't get much nerdier. Lmao
Such a great movie! 🤣😂 A friend of mine named his first kid "Jack Burton " 😂🤣😂🤣
That movie scared shit out of me when I watched it for the first time as a 3y.o. Wasn't able to sleep for a couple of nights, screamed at nights. Was definitely traumatizing for a kid like me. But now it's just a comedy...
In between that movie and the Golden Child I would definitely prefer Golden Child. It's so much deeper and joyful at the same time, and no bad impression for me back then, except for the last fight with that demon :) .
There's a brilliant directors commentary to this film, just Kurt and John Carpenter.
It's like listening to two old mates at the bar, real mutual love and respect. And self-deprecation!
It all in the reflects. I saw this on VHS in the 80s. I got it on blu-ray at this moment. Pork chop express is one of my all-time favorite name for vehicle. Great reaction as always Mel
I have been loving watching you watching all my old favorites!
You're right about the action sequence with the wing kong and chang sings at that funeral scene. One of the baddest fight scenes I've ever watched in my childhood. Brutal.
If you rewatch this, Jackie Chan is one of the extras during the funeral fight scene.He's one of the guys wearing white.
This is hands down my all time favorite film! So stoked you did this!
I was born in 1979. I was 7 when this movie came out. Saw it on videotape a couple years later. Been my favorite movie ever since.
My second favorite Carpenter movie after The Thing.
He wasn't in the Karate Kid? That was Pat Morita.
He was in a minor little movie with Jack Nicholson, Faye Dunaway and John Houston called "Chinatown".
1:20 From "That was nothing" to "Very small" in the same sentence, this thing growing FAST!
The music for this movie was actually written and performed by John Carpenter's band, The Coupe Devilles. In fact, one of the band members is the actor he used to play Michael Myers in the Halloween movies.
Suzee Pai, the girl with green eyes, lived on my street when I was a kid. the early 80's. I used to play with her brothers. I have a vivid memory of seeing her walk down the street. Even as a little boy I was hypnotized.
Kurt Russell is a fave. This movie is a classic! Love watching this channel grow and always enjoy your reactions and content. Keep it up!
Watch this movie at least once a year; definitely one of my favorite movies. It drives people nuts how much me and my buddy quote it.
"Big Trouble in Little China" is a classic!
The pacing and editing is brilliant. saying an adjective to indicate an action. "FAST!"
Saw this with the other luckiest SOB's inthe theater when I was 6! This movie works so well because it is a Western in essence, but told with an Eastern spin. Kurt Russells character was the Cowboy who rolls into town and doesnt leave until he gets his horse(truck) back. He even carries a Saddle bag over is shoulder.
Nice reaction... And nice touch with the throwback Melo nuggets jersey
Dude. One of my all time favorites. Sci fi Action Comedy. Some of the best quotes ever in a movie
I love absolutely EVERYTHING about this movie! It is everything cheesy and great about the '80s all in one film!
"Playing a nerd" Bruce Lee done did it haha
One of me and my brother favorite movies growing up!!! Glad you enjoyed it!!!
The fight choreography is still amazing!
I saw this in the movie theater with my parents when I was a kid and it has been one of my all time favorites ever since!!
I wanted to know more about The Three Storms. Kurt Russell's humor can't be matched.
I need to film tonight what are you doing dropping not one but two Carpenter movies in a row? I will never get any work done now.
