10 Movie Mistakes Left In To Troll You
8. Obvious Stunt Double Is Obvious - Who Am I?
During Jackie Chan's barnstorming run of Hong Kong martial arts films throughout the '80s and '90s, there were two consistent things: a flagrant disregard for health and safety regulations, and not a care in the world about continuity.
The latter case reached its outrageous apex at the end of Chan's 1998 action-comedy Who Am I?, where villainous CIA agent Morgan (Ron Smerczak) receives a hefty roundhouse kick courtesy of undercover agent Christine Stark (Michelle Ferre).
However, it's hilariously obvious that the stunt double for the kick isn't actually actor Ron Smerczak, because the double is both clearly visible and clearly not even the same race.
The double is obviously an Asian man with thick black hair, while Smerczak is of course a white man with a more modest mane of hair.
But this is entirely within the silly, roughshod spirit of Chan's Hong Kong action flicks, enough that it's really more of a nod to fans at this point.
Better still, the stuntman in question can also be seen doubling unconvincingly for several other characters throughout the movie, but never more prominently or shamelessly as this.
