    As far as classic kung fu/comedies go, this is one of the greats. Seemed a bitlike 10 minutes of action, followed by an hour of comedy and then a great final fight. Not really funny, but the early Jackie Cahan action is amazing and Sammo Hung should be a bigger star by now. He ow...( read more)ns this movie. Good fun, but only for the polar ends, Jackie Chans legacy is born here. And the 'English Dub' on the DVD is terrible, just endure the subtitles.

    This movie is a step down in terms of sheer martial artistry. Aside from a good opening sequence in a fairground and the last twenty minutes, the rest of the movie is Jackie Chan-less and situation-based comedy springing from the main band of failed crooks.

Along the way though, there is some rich comedy mined from both the collection of characters. One routine in a Japanese restaurant is priceless, the gag built up well between the different characters and paying off beautifully. All in all, it moves along at a fair pace and is so gently and confidently performed that it's an enjoyable way to spend ninety minutes. A bit more action and a tighter story would have made it more memorable.

    Funny but not as good as Winners & Sinners. Worth seeing for Sammo Hung and Jackie Chan.

    Definitely a fun comedy martial arts movie like we have come to know from Jackie Chan. It wasn't as good as I'd hoped but there were some nice action scenes and a couple of funny bits (the bedroom scene comes to mind).

    Hilarious and some remarkable action sequences on Jackie Chan, Sammo Hung and Yuen Biao, and marks the Hong Kong debut of Japanese crunch-princess Michiko Nishiwaki, but those who gnash their teeth at extended buddy-buddy gag sequences should be forewarned.
    I like the scene of C...( read more)han fighting his way through the surreal funhouse into a criminal syndicate's headquarters.
