The Big Brawl

The Big Brawl, also known as Battle Creek Brawl, was a 1980 martial arts film which marked Jackie Chan's first attempt to break into the American (and subsequently, global) movie market. It was directed by Robert Clouse and featured much of the crew from Enter the Dragon.
The film is set in the 1920s and follows Chan's character, a Korean martial artist, as he single handedly takes on the Mafia.
The film was a flop and led to Chan being advised to try supporting roles such as the Japanese racing car driver in Cannonball Run. Chan later made another attempt to break into the American market with 1985's The Protector, which suffered the same fate as this film.
