I really hope there will be a updated documentary of Jackie Chan in the future, having both done more films by now and also with people appreciating the art even more now. There are lots of interesting interviews in the film, but they're either cut down very short or with a voice-over dub on both Jackie's father as well as Sammo Hung, I would've love to hear more from those two.
This short documentary is also very 90s in its editing and style; americanized and shallow, without much depth. For the time it was released it was probably a great piece for those that wanted to know more about Jackie, but now with the internet, you can find so much more about him and his films. I didn't learn anything new from this documentary, but Jackie is always a great presence, both in front and behind the camera.
