i think they are both great, and not just that, both of them are already above 40 years old. Jet Li was born in 1963 and Jackie Chan was born in 1954. they both look younger than their age. If i didn't know when Jet Li was born i would probably think that his age about late 20's.

Well as many have stated this one is kind of hard to actually field. For one different styles in every aspect. For another the training atmosphere they went through and the exposure they had. For me it is Jet Li in general but I do very much like both of them. I say Jet Li if you have seen any of the documentaries that he was shown in when he was a child and still in the temple, his speed even then was astounding. They had to ask him to slow down quite significantly so that they could catch his movements on camera. I have never heard of this same issue with Jackie Chan. This first got me intrigued with Jet Li more because Bruce Lee had the same speed issue, and Bruce Lee is my original favorite and always will be. However on the other side of things, I do really enjoy comedy and Jet Li does not translate that well into comical roles. Even Monkey King in Forbidden Kingdom didn't feel right with him in the role, although it was a good movie. For that reason Jackie Chan jumps to the front as well, Drunken Master being my favorite.

Jet Li for sure, Jackie Chan old school and is more like an actor.

They are both legends in the Chinese cinema. It's hard to compare them because they have different genres and they're both really entertaining. They have been performing for a long time now and it would be hard to decide who is the better entertainer. They are both equal in my book
