Critic Reviews

  • Clint Morris, Moviehole

    Great stunts....but the novelty wears off fast

  • Rob Thomas, Capital Times (Madison, WI)

    Some really first-rate Chan action scenes in here.

  • Jeffrey Westhoff, Northwest Herald (Crystal Lake, IL)

    The plot has never been more inane, the supporting actors never less talented. Yet the action is as astonishing as ever

    I like Movies with Jackie Chan they are really funny and sometimes senti and all that, but sometimes I wish he would play in the movie which are less with Kungfu and more comedy.

    Jackie is the best on a non-stop, action ride that never slows down for morality plays, character development, romance or a complex storyline. I watched his acting and filming located at my hometown, Melbourne.

  • Joseph E


    I enjoyed the simplistic side of Chan, but only up to point, which in Mr. Nice Guy's Middle and Ending fight scenes being the best, whith the Opening being a faltering mess, and the Plot was way over the place.

    Once again, see the uncut Hong Kong version rather than the butchered American version.
