LouHomey From my favorite movies..

Grimossfer Clever and entertaining enough to recommend even to members of the 1%

Sienna-Rose Mclaughlin The movie really just wants to entertain people.

Ortiz Excellent and certainly provocative... If nothing else, the film is a real conversation starter.

daworldismine this jackie chan movie is a little darker than the usual fare, while still having some of the usaul chan humour, there are some great fight scenes and stunts, even though jackie chan is clearly doubled for some of them thanks to injures, while making 'rumble in the bronx' but thats minor, this is still a great jackie chan movie and it was very enjoyable, i caught it late night on channel 4 years ago, found it really good, but I've never seem it anywhere since. a shame as id love it in my chan collection. as far as jackie chan movies go, this is a great addition to the cannon, and it delivers its fair share of chans trademark action and stunts, whats not to like, also the version i saw was a subttiled version.

kcdl I normally love Jackie Chan movies but this one was terrible. There are only 2 or 3 fight scenes all of which are up to normal standard more or less. The bad thing about this movie is it focuses a lot on car chasing/racing. The car chase isn't so bad (though not as exciting as fighting) but the car racing at the end is exceptionally boring. Basically it takes all of things that make a Jackie Chan film a Jackie Chan film and leaves out everything except Jackie Chan. Even the traditional outtakes at the end lack their usual humour.I suppose to a certain extent it was made worse by the fact I saw one of those horrible dubbed versions. I usually try to see the subtitled version...I wish I could understand Chinese.I've only seen one Jackie film worse that this one and that was one of his early forays into Hollywood films that didn't turn out so well.Avoid unless really curious or a lover of motor sports.

Jormundgandr I like Jackie Chan a lot, but I don't usually go for his comedy. The comedy here is kept to a minimum, but the action is tremendous. This film has not only one of the best action sequences of any martial arts film I've seen (Jackie vs. about 15 or 20 guys at his auto shop), but another tremendous fight scene _and_ as an added bonus one of the best car chase scenes ever. The story and characters won't really impress, but they are serviceable. Checkitout if you get a chance.

sagacity_ One of the most important things in a Jackie Chan movie is the direction. It is important for us, the viewer, to be able to clearly see what's going on. If we can't then we might've just rented a generic Steven Seagal-type martial arts movie because the fights in those movies are completely incomprehensible as well.So then. This movie has some great car-chases and relevant crashes, it has some amazing fight-scenes and a few really cool stunts. Most of it is completely lost due to crap direction. We get slow-motion photography at totally inappropriate moments (in one case even during the middle of a fight) and occasionally we even get an effect that shows 6 frames per second instead of 24. The fact that the camera is always about 5 inches away from the action doesn't help matters.All in all, it would've been a great movie if it was possible to figure out what was happening on-screen. Pity.
