This was such a revolutionary movie for the action genre, and not just because it was Jackie's first-ever English-speaking movie. The plot was nonsensical to me, but nowhere else in the history of movies will you see an actor with no protective gear do a survival stunt within inches (not feet—inches) of a real buzzsaw while it's cutting wood!

Leave your brain at the door over the story and stay for the awe of old-school filmmaking: no CGI but instead real, life-threatening stunts, real explosives and destruction of buildings, cars, etc. What a golden era it was.

Anyway, I don't understand how it isn't getting taken down, so watch it before it does, haha.
