The Cannonball Run (1981)

A comedy about an illegal 3000 mile automobile race across America, starring Burt Reynolds’ moustache (with an actual Burt Reynolds attached) and Dom DeLuise. They're backed up by a large cast of international actors who willingly take the piss out of their own status and iconic roles. The plot is paper thin, but the character-based gags and rivalries are still funny.
I’m almost certain TCR was the first Golden Harvest film I ever saw as a kid, which means it's likely it was my first ever Jackie Chan film, too.  0_0
