Half a Loaf of Kung Fu
Jackie Chan turns kung fu inside out with this martial-arts action comedy. Chan plays Jiang, an amiable but bungling ne'er-do-well who cons his way into a servant's job at a mansion. Then he mistakenly masquerades as the "Whip Hero," a renowned outlaw whose defense of choice is to plaster his opponents with eggs! This goofy parody made Chan a star.

Good movie, but don't expect it to be like his current ones - Trixnbun
This movie is entirely different then the ones Jackie Chan does now. Don't watch it and expect to be facinated by his moves and beating of the bad guys.
This is full of slapstick humor, voice overs, and works based on physical humor. The music suits the scenes. Kind of like watching an updated 3 stooges movie.
Knowing it was his first I had no expectations of what it would be like, and found it quite enjoyable.
The voices almost have a british quality to them. And Jackie plays the goofy, bumbling wanderer pretending to be a famous fighter very well.
