Summary: Great fights, but like most other martial arts films...
Review: thats it. The fights here are aplently and long, and well Yuen wo ping choregraphed them so theyre great. The rest of the film is poorly attempted comedy and drama, and that makes most of the story and everything else seem ridiculous. The performances are bad, the music is unnoticable, the only good thing is the fights. They are really some of the best ive seen even if they push the fakeness alittle hard sometimes, they are fast and acrobatic and well the kid in this one is insane, he could kick bruce lee's ass all over China, and donnie yen and the iron monkey(dont know his name) are crazy. Sometimes it feels comically stupid (esspecially towards the end when the prime minister guy throws that woman all over the room like a piece of paper), but if anything watch it for the fights, there isnt anything else worth it really. Yuen you can make one hell of a fight scene, but give up directing and stick with choreography. It gets 9 out of a 10 for the fights, but for the overall movie i give it a 3 out of a 10.
