It's cheesy, it's corny, but it is entertaining. Kurt Russell is great. The movie has a real unique look once things start happening.

While its looks may have aged, its sense of humour and style is as fresh today as the day it first rolled out in cinemas. In short, it's pure escapist magic.

Haha! This reminds me my childhood. Very simple, unrealistic, soft... 80's popcorn movie. I guess that many of here have some kind of nostalgic love with this one. Here, in Brazil, many of us have :D.

Not as good as the legend has it. I loved it as a kid though. It's still good if you're looking for a bizzare and outlandish action flick with small bits of both intentional and unintentional comedy.

Enjoyable enough adventure flick with another charismatic performance from Kurt Russell. The plot certainly felt disjointed at times (and one sequence didn't really advance the plot all that much) but still had a lot of fun. Not one of Carpenter's best nor a standout amongst 1980s movies, however st More

'Big Trouble in Little China' didn't entertain me.

There isn't anything about it that I really like, to be honest. It isn't a truly terrible movie by any means, but the story didn't take hold of me and the characters and their actors weren't all that watchable. I wasn't sold on the plot' More

This is a fun, almost campy movie; don't try to think about it too hard. Rather, enjoy it for what it is.

It has an almost folklore-ish feel to it, as if what's being presented is more of a tongue-in-cheek tale (which it is fully aware of) and as such some aspects _maaay_ have been exaggerated. More
