Lung Cheng, Jackie Chan, Jeff Yang - I Am Jackie Chan: My Life in Action Books

Pros: Here's the disclaimer: JACKIE'S A PRO. KIDS, DON'T TRY THIS AT HOME.
Cons: Character development and action do NOT mix! I guess it's gotta be there, though.

The title just says everything, doesn’t it? I am Jackie Chan. That makes it quick, to the point, and very easy to understand. Then the subtitle, which reads “My Life in Action.” Well, there you go! Who better to write about a life in action? The cover ...

Pros: It's the Jackie!
Cons: I gotta read?! No way!

This is a great book. Normally I don't go for autobiographies much, just because, if I had to write one about my life...I don't think it'd make any bestseller lists. I mean, 75-80% of my life has got to be something like, "Wake up, go to work, go...

Pros: Good account of his life so far
Cons: not much detail into Chan's personality

If you like Jackie Chan, you'll like this book. If not, I'm not sure why in the world you would have ever bothered to pick it up in the first place. That being said, if you're not a fan and happen to pick it up, I think you'll find some very...

Pros: Great story, Top 10s at the end, interesting read
Cons: Lags in the beginning, not too much about his modern life

For the millions and millions of fans of Jackie Chan around the world, "I am Jackie Chan" basically answers every question you could possibly have about his beginnings. Instead of talking about his mega-hits he talks about his very humble...

Pros: Well written, informative, and extremely interesting.
Cons: None.

Excellent and absorbing!! I have tried to get patrons who prefer non-fiction literature to read this book, yet they do not seem to be able to get past the fact that he is an actor. Even when I tantalize them with the fact that he was raised in the...

Pros: I'm not even a big fan, but I loved this book!
Cons: I liked the first half more than the second half.

I was in a biography/autobiography phase and was roaming that section of the library. I came across the Jackie Chan autobiography. I'm not a huge fan. Not that I don't like the guy, but I don't belong to his fan club or have a shrine for him in our...

Pros: Very, Very interesting
Cons: I prefer watching his movies

This is by far the best bibliography I have ever read. I am not a big reader, but this book made me go on and read the whole 398 pages of it. Most bibliography’s I read are too difficult to follow and are boring, but this book is different. It is very...

Pros: Has everything you ever wanted to know, Great filmography and Stunt list in back.
Cons: book had to end =(

I am a huge Jackie fan, i own tons of his movies *66 so far*, autograph, action figure, lord i am Chan fanatic!! So when i got this book i was about to bust to read it. Let me start by saying this book is a must for any Jackie Fan. When reading you...
