Tokyo Raiders (2000)

Tokyo raiders and the Jackie Chan effect!
11 July 2005
I enjoyed the movie and you can see the influence by Jackie Chan and the not so serious fighting scenes.I said he had an influence on the film, not make the film.Most people out there who gave it a so so rating want to see the same things over and over again.In most of the fighting scenes the stars seem to toy with the villains even though their life is at risk.In which is a Jackie Chan trademark.When Stephen Seagal has continually made movies under the CIA identity,no one makes the comment,"this is a typical Hollywood or hong kong movie".The most influential movies generally come out of Hollywood or hong kong.I believe Hollywood and hong kong put out movies that generally caters to teenage boys,such as intense gun battles with explosions included.Thats why Hollywood is making all the marvel comics into movies.The point that I'm making is Tokyo Raiders is a mediocre film to some, and when they look at the DVD cover and they see asians, martial arts is the first thought,not the relation between the people.
