Reasons to love Big Trouble In Little China


  • It's American as can be. Even if you're not American, you gotta admire the passion that Jack Burton carries about him and his fellow countrymen.
  • It's cheesy as hell. There is not one real thing in the movie that truly could happen. Yet.
  • It keeps it's Chinese roots. Even though the movie is American and set in China, us the viewer, really feel like ancient Chinamen run around present day Chinatown.
  • Green eyes for Chinese girls are a rare miracle. But get this: There are always others.
  • Any way possible to get in or out. Example: To get out of a den, use a fireman's pole.
  • The entire movie's point is to stop a royal wedding.
  • Jack Burton isn't the real hero. He's a sidekick.
  • 2 unlikely best friends must save 2 hot ladies with green eyes.
  • Magic potion is real. Very real.
