Episode 183 - Ride On
Hey there, movie fans! Welcome back to your favorite podcast about Hollywood’s biggest bombs. This month, Not A Bomb is examining some of 2023’s biggest box office disasters and critically lambasted films! Buckle up because we’ve got a treasure trove of cinematic calamities to dissect and explore!
In this week’s episode, we’re thrilled to have Action Film Historian Brandon Brentley on the show! Brandon has worked with numerous distribution companies on their Hong Kong releases, such as Criterion, 88 Films, Shout Factory, Eureka, and Arrow Video. Yes, he’s been providing commentary on the best of Hong Kong’s cinematic fury and he’s kind of a big deal! Once again, we get to talk about Jackie Chan, one of greatest stuntmen of all time in one of his most self-reflective, personal films - Ride On. Marketed as a “Jackie Chan comedy with horse-fu,” Ride On barely made a splash in the domestic box-office and was pretty much ignored in the international market. We think it’s safe to say 2 out of the 3 hosts had a profound reaction to the film.
Ride On is directed by Larry Yang and stars Jackie Chan, Lui Haocun, Guo Qilin, Wu Jing, Joey Young, Yu Rongguang, Andy On, and Shi Yanneng.
