Atom User Reviews for The Foreigner
Jackie Chan will always be one of the greatest martial arts master
Much better than expected. Chan still has the moves just a little slower.
Jackie Chan still has it!!! Pierce Brosnan is awesome with a twist
It was perfect for an action movie it had good action but at the same time it had an emotional touch to it.
brutal jackie is best jackie
Great movie.
New Generation does not know or recognize Pierce Brosnan. Thats my James Bond, an icon and legend. Everyone was excited to see Jackie Chan, as was I. it was great to watch two legends great action and intense film
Jackie Chan's performance is stellar despite being away from the big screen for some time. There is an satiated amount of suspense, action and twists that will leave you wanting more. I'll give this another view. Overall, great film.
Jackie Chan and Brosnans performance was well executed. The action sequences were entertaining, but too quick and too few. Much of the film was based on the history of the IRA, however for people that didn’t follow global news several decades ago, it was very tough to keep up with the plot as it unfolded. The other thing that was lacking with the plot was how exactly Quan (Chan) was connected. Almost a “Raiders of the Lost Ark” dilemma - it seems that Quans involvement in the plot has little to no effect on the ultimate outcome by the conclusion of the story. If the film had a historical synopsis of the IRA prior to the first scene, as well as more action scenes, less political heat, and more of Jackie Chan, it would easily have earned 4 stars. In its current light, I could only give it 2. Sorry, Jackie.
It was a good movie! Story line is good but sad.Jackie Chan is getting old but still entertains 😊👏🏽
Jackie Chan KILLED It!
Jackie Chan ain't nothin but the truth in this film. Excuse my Ebonics, you just gotta see this. It is different from any Jackie Chan film I've seen.
Jackie Chan is amazing! showing his range in this serious action packed movie!

Loved it
Watch it
very action packed throughout and it was easy to follow.
definitely kept you thinking! exciting and a good story - nice!
Good movie. Not great but entertaining. Different kind of roll for Jackie Chan
could have focused more on Chan. felt like the movie really wasn't so much about him and it should have been.
#OUTSTANDING
It was alright
It's Taken starring Jackie Chan, except his daughter does die instead of getting kidnapped, so it's a tale of revenge.
Best Jackie Chan movie ever!
best flick I've seen in a while
Enjoyed the movie. I forget that Jackie Chan is an actor, and not just an action star, he had me teary-eyed at the beginning. Some great action sequences.
Overall good movie. Not as much martial arts as the Jackie chad movie of the past. Good plot and suspense
Jackie still got it💯
Not enough action
Live Jackie Chan movies. He did really good.

A solid if not earthshaking action film. Jackie Chan does a great job as do the other actors.
great movie! must watch!
i enjoyed seeing it
Better than expected. Pierce Brosnan did a great job, felt more impactful of a role than Jackie.
Metacritic
Despite its literary origins, the film feels a bit like a writer tossed a few darts at a board labeled with aging action stars and various terrorist groups and just decided to make it work.
Campbell keeps the action cooking and the suspense on a high burner in this compulsively watchable conspiracy thriller, while The Foreigner proves again is that Chan is the Man – now and forever.
There’s still something thrilling about watching Chan, even at 63, fight people half his age. There’s a graceful fluidity to his punching and kicking. He’s poetry in motion. No film can take that away from him — not in 2017, not ever.
