Summary: Chan, Hung, Biao.....Nuff said
Review: When these 3 get together the actiona and comedy never stops. This was probably the first movie of the famous Chinese trio I've seen and I must say it was absolutely superb. The comedy is what to expect from other Chan movies (which I think is real funny since I like slapstick), and the action (especially the the last half hour) is top notch. If you are a Jackie Chan lover, then this is a must have for your collection.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Wheels on Meals is a great time!
Review: Who doesn't know international Superstar Jackie Chan? Rush Hour, Rumble in the Bronx, Super Cop, these are but a few of Jackie Chan's hyper-action martial arts movies!

While a bit older than many movies you might be accustomed to seeing, being filmed originaly in 1982 and then released on video in 1984. Wheels on Meals is DEFINATLY one of Jackie Chan's best movies! The set is Spain, where Jackie who plays the character Thomas and his friend David run a shop from a van, the business is called "Wheels on Meals". Throughout the movie David and Thomas become involved with a pickpocket named Sylvia who is being presued by some unknown bad guy, and they seem to somehow be bound to protect her.

The DVD seems a bit glitchy at first (because the video source obviously is rather old), but this clears up quickly and plays smoothly the rest of the way through. There are two languages to choose from, Cantonese (which I think is the original) and Mandarin. Along with the language features, there are a few extras such as a few movie traitors including the movie's and two other Jackie Chan moives. Also there is a cast history.

The music is standard 80's Hong Kong cinema, with some Spanish background music mixed in (since it does take place in Spain). While it doesn't take away from the movie it doesn't add to it either.

All in all this movie is one of Jackie's best, TONS of great fights and stunts! I'm forced to agree with so many others that the fight between Jackie and Benny "The Jet" Urquidez is one of the best I've ever seen! The only drawback I found at all was that the ending seemed a bit forced. Still, Wheels on Meals is a great time weither your a Jackie Chan fan, or a fan of Hong Kong cinema. Wheels on Meals defiantly a worth while buy.
