Action's a snap for Chan, but English is a challenge

It may be a well-worn cliche, but for Hong Kong star Jackie Chan, action really does speak louder than words — at least when it comes to English dialogue.

The actor is often frustrated by his inability to deliver his English lines smoothly during shooting of "Rush Hour 3," according to an entry on his Web site Saturday.

"To me, action scenes are so easy, but dialogue scenes drive me crazy," he wrote while filming in Los Angeles. "Rush Hour 3" is due for release next year.
