Movie information in first post provided by The Movie Database
⁤The Foreigner turns a simple revenge story into something unique, showing a different side of Jackie Chan. ⁤⁤Known for his lighter action roles, Chan plays a character driven by pain and loss. ⁤⁤His performance is raw and emotional, proving he is not just a martial arts star but also a capable dramatic actor. ⁤

⁤Pierce Brosnan portrays a politician with a dark and complex past. ⁤⁤His role goes beyond the typical villain, adding depth and tension to every scene. ⁤⁤The dynamic between Brosnan and Chan is like a game of poker where you never know their next move. ⁤

⁤The action is gritty, intense, and grounded in reality, matching the film's serious tone. ⁤⁤This makes every fight feel more impactful and real.

⁤What sets The Foreigner apart is its focus on the consequences of violence and revenge. ⁤⁤It is not just about Chan versus Brosnan. ⁤⁤The story dives into personal and political conflicts that spiral out of control, and just when you think you know what will happen, another twist comes along.

⁤Despite a few missteps, The Foreigner is a gripping thriller. ⁤⁤It shows that Jackie Chan still has surprises left and is a film worth watching seriously.
 
Jackie Chan has paid his dues, literally, for each wrinkle, scar and line on his body. Right from his first movie to his last movie, he has over and over again proven to be a great actor and action figure. He is one of the greatest film star because he does it all. The drama, comedy name it!

He is capable of making one laugh and on the other hand, he could also make you cry for no reason at all. The performances are great, and the lines are from a really great book. This film is a highly charged and tense. It’s a structured political action.

At times it was unclear whether I wanted Pierce Brosnan or not, he does a great job portraying a great villain in this movie.
 
Jackie Chan was much older when this was filmed and he was maybe the best I have ever seen. The only thing that I felt was false was his slow, old man walk at the start of the film. I thought he could have walked and even run easily as he used to.🤣

Jackie Chan is a legendary actor and action star. He can successively shifts between different genres, be them comedy or drama, he truly deserves the highest admiration.

You're correct with that! Jackie Chan is a superstar and we all know that already. He’s a genius in doing all sorts of moves, and even pulling off different kind of amazing stunts. I guess what makes him even more unique is the ability to do comedy and drama which might not necessarily be in the same movie, but a different movies altogether.

He has shot so many great movies that people of all ages throughout the world enjoy watching. For me, I find a movie already interesting if he’s there. Jackie Chan is really a hero. He has informed us that if we continue striving for greatness and give our 100% in whatever we do, we will be able to achieve everything we always wanted.
