Big Trouble/Little China is another in a long line of racist, hate-mongering films commissioned by the Reagan Administration as wartime propaganda. Luckily, no one Chinese ever saw this film, or we'd all be eating rice and wearing coolie hats right now. Kurt Russel stars as a white guy in over his head when he has to deliver a shipment of Coors directly into Chinatown. All the Chinese roles are played by the same person, Henry Winkler. I was never more offended by a film. There was a scene involving cats, a restaurant, and Geisha foot binding that was so over the line, it was like an Italian was directing. Too bad, as Kim Catrall was in this before she was old. I give this film a C...but if you are Chinese, a "Don't See This and then Kill Whitey."
