I grew up with Cartoon Network before PG labels and special program times in the 1990-ties. The violence of Tom & Jerry is hard to top unless you go full on Mecha Streisand (South Park).

Jackie Chan is fun. He is the joker of the Kung-Fu genre and kind of inspirational.

It is probably less realistic than Marvel violence. Bordering on slapstick even. Good fun. Would love to show my son some Donnie Yen or Iku Uwais, but their movies are usually a lot less fun. In a few years perhaps.

Drunken Master :-)

Hopped on the bandwagon after Rumble in the Bronx. Fell off after the last Rush Hour movie. But it's been years since I've watched a Jackie Chan flick. What's he done lately that's worth checking out?

@Soups I enjoyed seeing him in The Foreigner, despite it not getting super high reviews.

I enjoyed The Foreigner as well. The Spy Next Door is a kids movie that my 11 year old is currently obsessed with.

I’m probably gonna show him Rumble in the Bronx before long.

The Spy Next Door is also the one that got them interested.

Also should watch again the Kung-fu Huddle and Shaolin Soccer.

Police Story 1 and 2 are pretty clean considering they’re not kids movies and he does some spectacular stunts and fight sequences in them. I think The Medallion was more of a family friendly one though I didn’t see it.

Of course there is “The Karate Kid” reboot with Jaden Smith which should have been called The Kung Fu Kid.

@DigMe, thanks for the tips. Totally forgot about "Karate Kid"
