So, looking solely at Jackie Chan's 90s films from the US, what did you think of them?

Surprisingly, I'm not as huge fan of these as I am his Hong Kong works. 'Rush Hour' is still enjoyable though it can wear on you, part 2 is slightly better because the comedy's a little better but it oddly feels slightly overlong. 'Shanghai Noon' is a bit overrated as it really is more of a comedy than an action film, which is nicely fixed again in part 2, which again is a better film though I really don't see a way to continue that one. 'Mr Nice Guy' and 'Rumble in the Bronx,' though, are both far better than either and are some of his better works, which I'd give a slight edge to 'Nice Guy' because of the finale there involving a bulldozer crashing through a split-level house in all its glory, which is an impressive sight to see while Jackie doesn't really seem comfortable in the R-rated 'Bronx' despite some good scenes there.
