Big Trouble in Little China Quick Review
An 80's movie so bad, you have to forgive it -- like when your buddy's drunk uncle passes out and pisses on the couch. It's funny, in a sad, sad way.

Big Trouble in Little China Quick Review
Another so-called cult classic - Big Trouble is a fun movie. Chinese demons and an ancient sorcerer hatch an evil plot and it's up to Kurt Russell (and his friends) to save the day. It's goofy, it's action-packed - it's a great time.

BIG TROUBLE
by Danny Doyle (Middle East)
This is one of those movies you watch when you just want to laugh, how can you not laugh with Kurt Russell, lipstick smeared all over his face from kissing Kim Cattral and talking to a near immortal chinese guy about dealing with women.
5/5
BTILC
by DMac (Terra Prime)
I can't say enough good things about the BD release of this movie. As a diehard long time fan of Carpenter and Russell, this movie is total eye-candy. BD video is excellent+, and the sound is amazing. Just check out the scene when the three Storms first appear in the "Chinese Standoff". High level of detail is evident throughout the movie, terrific color balance, and the soundtrack is a superior upgrade from the SD release. Highly recommended.
5/5
Best version yet
by James K. Michal (U.S.A. VA.)
Had this flick in VHS, two versions of DVD and now Blu-ray. The special edition DVD was very good, but the Blu-ray is significantly better IF you have a set up that can take full advantage of the improvements in A/V presentation.
5/5
Back in Time...
by Scott Huddleston
I remember going to see this movie at the theater when I was about 12 years old, we didn't think it would be any good but since there was nothing else playing we went and seen it anyway. The movie ended up being one of my all time favorite movies, I guess we treasure what we grew up as evident with this movie, it may have gotten poor reviews at it's release, but it will always be one of the best childhood movies for me.
As for the Bluray version better than DVD (obviously) but I fell it could have been cleaned up some more compared to the classics.
5/5
This John Carpenter movie has it all!
by Daniel Mendoza Villa (At the moment Madrid Spain)
If you've ever heard of the director John Carpenter, you'll be familiar with his work like Halloween, Escape From New York, The Thing, etcetera, and this movie, a mid 80`s classic starring none other than Carpenter's favorite front man, Kurt Russell. The movie is set in San Francisco's Chinatown, its a modern day fable of good versus evil, Chinese black magic, the hero storms the castle type affair.
Russell plays Jack Burton, a wise cracking long distance truck driver passing through Chinatown on some business. After a card game with old friend Wang Chi (Dennis Dun), Wang (now penniless thanks to Burrton's good fortune) persuades Jack to drive him to the airport, to pick up his childhood sweetheart. Its here the story begins, Wang's girlfriend, is captured by a mysterious gang. The two form a pact to rescue the girl from the clutches of the evil Lo Pan, former crime lord of Chinatown, a myth who has apparently lived to the age of almost 200, with a little help from some black magic.
That's it; I don't want to spoil it. And certainly you've probably seen the movie anyway. For me this is a great movie that I had the chance to see it at my cousins house when I was growing up, and may be that's why I have such good memories of it.
It's hard to pick a favorite John Carpenter film, but this one has it all. It's a great action movie, a great comedy, an original story, great lines, and even a love story (if you needed anyway), a perfect blend of what big screen entertainment should be. It's strange though, that the ending was left so open, begging for a sequel that was never made.
Some may say this is a great renter or rainy day movie station choice, I don't agree, if you are a John Carpenter film fan this is a must have, there is lots of action mixed with a gentle humor that will have you smiling and chuckling rather than roaring but still fully entertained.
When it comes to John Carpenter's you can't go wrong, this is your movie.

Directed by thrill master John Carpenter, this edge-of-your seat adventure stars Kurt Russell as Jack Burton, a tough-talking, wisecracking truck driver whose hum-drum life on the road takes a sudden supernatural tailspin when his best friend's fiancee is kidnapped. Speeding to the rescue, Jack finds himself deep beneath San Francisco's Chinatown, in a murky, creature-filled world ruled by Lo Pan, a 2000-year-old magician who mercilessly presides over an empire of spirits. Dodging demons and facing baffling terrors, Jack battles his way through Lo Pan's dark domain in a full-throttle, action-riddled ride to rescue the girl. Co-starring Kim Cattrall, this effects-filled sci-fi spectacle speeds to an incredible, twist-taking finish.
