The Tuxedo(2002)
Many say that this was the worst Jackie Chan movie ever made, mostly because it's devoid of the authentic stunts that he is famous for. More importantly, it's boring and nobody cares about whatever they were doing in the story. Bla bla bla, "don't touch my tuxedo", bottled water corp, flying fuck.
The biggest failure was Jackie Chan falling out of character. He apologized less when he hit people and instead, was more of a bruiser. Distinct JC qualities including stuttering and spazzing out, were missing because the directing style was American. Thus, his character was a misfit for his acting skills and the main character ended up looking hopelessly dumb. This is a movie that you will NOT find on Jackie Chan's resume. He just did it out of boredom.
Acting: 40%
Storyline: 25%
