Plot: Extremely silly comedy about a self-indulgent private investigator who winds up on a cruise ship full of rich patrons, gorgeous women, murderous terrorists, and scarce food.

A comedy based on a Japanese manga of the same name. The fight scenes are pretty good and makes good use of the surrounding props. Have a lots of gratuitous gunfire, shooting and beating up people, but somehow, no blood or very minimal blood is lost.

Warning: this is the stupidest movie and you gotta love it for that! It's insane. Not quickly forgotten.

MCT:December 30, 2007Terrible, but watchable for some decent stuntwork and somewhat funny scenes and if you're a fan of the manga.

Cheesy camp, no surprise coming from Jing Wong, Hong Kong's indisputable king of hackness. That said, this is just a big sack of dumb but fun moments. You just can't say no to a movie with Jackie Chan dressed as Chun Li from Street Fighter.
Jackie might consider this his worst film (well, maybe the Rush Hour films these days) but when you're seeing the man getting hit by a gun in the face, it's humanly imposible not to laugh. Seriously, Jackie was genetically made for comedy. -

MCT:June 3, 2007It's not Jackie Chan at his best, but the Street Fighter sequence is worth the price of the rental. Otherwise a mediocre and unmemorable film.

The plot is stupid, the acting is bad, the bad guys are laughable, and the movie takes place on a SHIP, not in a city! Still, this is one hilariously entertaining movie. Jackie's fight scenes with Richard Norton are legendary, and I'm not only talking about the Street Fighter II arcade fight.

A lame and shameless attempt to cash in on the popularity of the manga. Wong Jing practically rewrote the City Hunter universe to suit his cheezball tastes, Tsukasa Hojo be damned. He halfheartedly tried to justify the City Hunter moniker by naming some of the characters "Kaori" and "Saeko" without making the least effort to make them look or behave like the manga characters. (What? Kaori has long hair now?? And who in their right mind would mistake the sultry Joey Wong for a man?). To top it off, he even wrote in "original" protagonist characters that would had been out of place in the City Hunter universe (What's with that card-thrower? is this City Hunter or God of Gamblers? Wait... that's another Wong Jing movie... now I get it). Another problem is that a Jackie Chan movie would naturally includes lots of kungfu scenes, whereas the manga version Ryo Saeba, while a formidable hand-to-hand combatant in his own right, had never been seen pulling off any single kungfu move in the entire run of the manga. On the other hand, they did away with key elements that characterizes the City Hunter universe, such as the "mokkori" and the 100 ton hammer. Features one of the most "out there" Jackie Chan scenes where he got smashed into an arcade machine only to rise from the wreckage as Chun Li (!) from the Street Fighter video games. I found the audacity of trying to sell this run-of-the-mill HK kung-fu schlock as "City Hunter" rather insulting. Sheesh...who do they think they're kidding?

This movie is a parody of the Japanese animé series. It's exaggerations are part of the parody. But seeing JC playing the part of Chum Li of Street Fighters....LOL!

'Histerically Comedic' This is the kind of old movie you find on SBS one night and end up with a sore tummy from laughter even though you were almost asleep befourhand.
-
MCT:October 25, 2006Jackie Chan was perfectly cast as Ryu Saeda, the lecherous and lethal of this Manga / Anime film. And lots of beautiful HK babes.

MCT:April 22, 2006Ok, so I CAN give a Jackie Chan movie less then 3 stars. NO amount of amazing stunts makes up for the Chun Li scene.
