SmugKitZine Tied for the best movie I have ever seen

Boobirt Stylish but barely mediocre overall

Doomtomylo a film so unique, intoxicating and bizarre that it not only demands another viewing, but is also forgivable as a satirical comedy where the jokes eventually take the back seat.

Abegail Noëlle While it is a pity that the story wasn't told with more visual finesse, this is trivial compared to our real-world problems. It takes a good movie to put that into perspective.

kankawin25013 Many guys would praise Mr.Nice Guy (Yat goh hiu yan) as one of the best Hong Kong's action flick during Jackie Chan's era. In my opinion, this was one of his "masterpiece" in his actor's life. What would happened if the normal chef with his unexpected martial arts skill involved with the deadly situation concerning the significant video containing the busted drug selling? Unstoppable, breath taking and over the limit action is a thing that Mr.Nice Guy give us. Jackie Chan showed his stellar performance which can made me firmly believed that he is the best "action hero". He extremely concentrated all of his action scenes even it was very risk. I also surprised that Chan starred this film when he was 43! He could do many risk scenes at this age! The film also proof many critics' comment about Richard Norton's outstanding villain role. He portrayed himself as the heinous, nasty and remorseless Giancarlo who can made the audience curse him "to the deep hell". This wicked guy was the mixture of the aggressive criminal, the merciless mob boss, and the abusive man. I believed that if Mr.Nice Guy is the Hollywood's motion picture, Richard Norton could won the Oscar.About directing, Sammo Hung numerously surprised me when I knew his position as the film's director since he is the iconic actor with the great action skill. (However, Mr.Nice Guy was really his 36th works from his 37 movies he directed.) Hung gave us the quality action film which treated audiences with all of emotion. Funny, comedy, anger and satisfying. Movie's climax scene is the part that I suggested all of you utterly "don't miss" because you will be poped-up and shouted "Oh Hell Yeah!"However, I didn't like some point in this movie. The intense and oftentimes women's beating is the scene that I mostly hated. Even it was necessary to show how bad that a villain was, but Sammo Hung used it too frequent. Maybe it was the Chinese's action film culture, so every director had to do?To sum up, this movie is very good for action movies' fan. However, it's not suitable for children to watch it.

mjw2305 Jackie Chan is Mr. Nice Guy, a TV Chef who helps a beautiful young woman when she is chased by a gang of thugs. What he quickly learns is that she is a Journalist who has just uncovered a drug ring, and she has a video tape that could bring it down; and this tape accidentally gets switched with one of his own.This is the first Jackie Chan movie to be shot entirely in English, and its a fast paced all action, Kung-Fu fighting, comedy roller-coaster that simply great fun to watch. Chan is typically awesome at his art of fighting and in his usual style he takes on the bad guys and kicks butt throughout the movie.7/10 Great fun and packed with great martial arts, done the Jackie Chan way.

Jackson Booth-Millard When you see bits of this you expect it to be quite fun, and then when you read the review by critics you can agree with what their saying. Based in Melbourne, Australia, this story sees Jackie Chan as Jackie (LOL), a popular TV cook with great food talents, and knowledge of martial arts. His life is turned upside down when TV Journalist Diana (Gabrielle Fitzpatrick) has taped evidence of a drug lord, Giancarlo 'The Saint' Lucchetti (Richard Norton) doing his "business", and on her way out is spotted, and has to run. She runs into Jackie in the street and they getaway after a little struggle, but it gets worse they accidentally mix up her tape or the crime, and his tape of his cookery show. The bad guys are now after Jackie, who they think has the tape, but what he and they don't realise is that one of Jackie's nephews nicked it. There is also a point where Jackie's girlfriend Miki (Miki Lee, LOL again) is kidnapped and threatened for ransom, so this is when we know, "No More Mr. Nice Guy". Also starring Karen McLymont as Lakeisha, Vince Poletto as Romeo, Barry Otto as Baggio and the director Sammo Hung Kam-Bo as Cyclist. The action, stunt and chase sequences as with most of Chan's films are very fun and quite exciting, including a stunt involving a power saw, but I agree with critics two star (out of five) opinion, because the acting is rubbish, and the story could have used a bit of work too, but it is certainly a film for Chan and stunt fans. Jackie Chan was number 41 on The 100 Greatest Movie Stars. Okay!

TheHande Jackie Chan has a talent in physical and emotional comedy, but he sometimes seems rather lost in some of his non-Hong Kong productions. While this film is hardly as awful as 'Tuxido', it does not float well either.The movie essentially has good things going for it. It is funny in many places and wonderfully goofy. Sammo Hung's bit role as the miss-fortunate cyclist is a particular blast. Unfortunately the comedic approach just seems right out inappropriate particularly given this is a crime drama and the fact that for the villains the movie opens rather grotesquely.From a production point of view there's basically nothing wrong with the film, but its plot runs thin very quickly and it does not provide a very rewarding climax.
