Jackie Chan: Hollywood Film

Corey Lee Dept: If Legend of a Warrior was a Hollywood film, this tale of an adult son reconnecting with his kung fu master father would have been substantially different from this National Film Board documentary from Calgary filmmaker Corey Lee, according to Winnipeg Free Press. Then they would be accosted by a gang of street toughs and in a rousing climax, father and son would kick their butts in a dazzling display of martial arts acumen and/or family unity and cOLIN SMITH PHOTO Corey and Frank Lee reunited over intense martial arts training session. Imagine a handsome Asian actor, let's say John Cho, long estranged from his martial arts master dad Jackie Chan after his bitter divorce from his Caucasian mom I'm thinking Melissa Leo years earlier. So John Cho, now a dad with kids of his own, resolves to win the long-denied love and respect of his old man by training with him for a couple of months. Chan would be silent and even hostile at first, but during a father-and-son visit to Hong Kong, dad would finally reveal his own painful upbringing with an absentee father and a tough life.
