“No one will pay money to see Jackie Chan walk!” That’s what Jackie Chan told Robert Clouse when he convinced the director to choregraph more elaborate martial arts scenes. The Big Brawl was Chan’s first attempt at breaking into the American film market, but he didn’t become a star until 1995 with Rumble in the Bronx.
“没人会花钱看成龙走路!”成龙跟导演罗伯特·高洛斯这样说,以说服他在影片中增加精心设计的武打情节。成龙靠《杀手壕》打入美国电影市场,但直到1995年才凭借《红番区》成为国际明星。
