Funny, heart-tugging, intermittently awesome and a loving if ambivalent homage to the heyday of martial arts cinema, writer-director Larry Yang’s film may not blend tones as seamlessly as Chan’s best work from the 1980s and ’90s did. But “Ride On” is moving and thrilling enough to be a worthy capper to the Chan canon.

It’s rather meta since the backstory riffs on the star’s life and reputation, yet Yang gives the proceedings cross-generational family appeal through focusing on the protagonist’s deep bond with his steed.

A sappy but enjoyable slice of family fun that has a nice horse doing wacky tricks for the younger viewers and for parents and older fans, is a gently meta, valedictory canter through the paddock of Chan’s previous achievements.

The 68-year-old Chan slips down off Red Hare like a limber teenager. But horse aside, he largely retreads old ground here, with a handful of shambolic dustups that, apart from the enterprising use of a wicker rocking chair, are pretty standard Jackie.

Take Ride On for what it is, Chan’s attempt at a graceful bow to the inevitable, and an affectionate remembrance of all the crazy stuff he’s done, the risks he’s taken and the bruises and broken bones he’s suffered when dangerous stunts go dangerously wrong.

Ride On isn’t a generic beat-em-up but a stingy elegy to a bygone era of filmmaking and an unbelievable melodrama about an older artist and his estranged daughter. A lot of emotional baggage is attached to Ride On, and very little of it gets unpacked.

The film is so graceless and bizarre in its attempts at tugging at the viewer’s emotions that it often feels like a work of parody.

Uma mistura de "Cavalo de guerra" do Spilberg com um filme homenagem tipo como fizeram com o Nicolas Cage em "O peso do talento". Tem todos os maneirismos do Jackie Chan, então provavelmente se você não gosta, deve passar longe do filme. Ocorre que, por mais que seja piegas, que se estenda mais do que deveria, e pelas cenas de luta já não convencerem tanto, há aqui um sentimento genuíno de gratidão pelo cinema, e isso sinceramente me quebra. O que é melhor, não lança o Jackie Chan ao estrelismo, e sim o usa como uma peça representativa para falar de dublês, ainda sobrando espaço para homenagear produtores e técnicos que se envolvem na arte de fazer cinema. Quando rolaram os créditos, a emoção tomou conta. Talvez o filme precisasse de mais humor em certos momentos, sabe, para deixar um pouco mais leve. Optaram por um drama, inclusive envolvendo um tribunal, que sinceramente tornou tudo meio desnecessário e chato. Ainda assim, o carisma dos envolvidos e a linguagem feita com alma e coração podem chegar aos mais atentos e abertos a essa emoção. É um filme que não se quer grande, recheado de passagens que remetem a filmes anteriores, quase uma obra experimental mesmo, e que se permite brincar. Vendo sob essa perspectiva, não tem como não gostar.
