Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Skip them all.
Review: After seeing them all, I can safely recommend that you skip any Chan film with the word "Stars" in the title. One has a good fight in a Coke (Pepsi?) factory, but other than that they are long and irritating. Endless scenes of all of the "Lucky Stars" trying to get into bed with a girl get old VERY fast.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: FIVE STARS FOR LUCKY
Review: Before we start, I need to set one thing straight. THIS IS NOT A JACKIE CHAN MOVIE! This is a film that features an ensmble cast of frequent hong kong players. Jackie Chan is included(and has one of the best fight scenes of his career)but is very limited. This is a fun stylish(very stylish)martial arts comedy. Starts off with an explosively funny and exciting car chase and a small fight.(ninjas in blue? Of course)This sets the plot in motion and the next hour is mostly comedy scetches that introduce the five lucky stars. The humor is very strange but very amusing.(also very juvinile,if that,but still very funny) It's interesting to see humor from other countries. A very different sense of humor than the US, but i like it. It is, however,an aquired taste(consider this your warning) The final fight scene(s) are among the most fun and original That I have ever seen, so even if you don't like the humor, the climax is alone worth it! Sammo is a fantastic director and if you like his style of directing, I highly reccomend it. I have seen all the movies featuring Jackie Chan as well. This is in the top 3 that i have seen. (the others being police story and rumble in the bronx) i also reccomend getting the dvd. the video is poorly dubbed and scenes are chopped up. the subtitles on the dvd is fantastic and the widescreen is great in a 1.85 aspect ratio.

Summary: A great comedic performance from the actors.
Review: I enjoyed this movie very much. The fight scenes are few but the comedy makes up for the missing action. I recommend this movie to anyone whos a fan of chinese slapstick comedy

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Nothing special
Review: i like the first better, but this isnt the worst. very slow and stupid comedy like the first, not much jackie, only 2 1/2 action sequences. rent if bored dont buy.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: this it a realy good movie (Who cares about Kang Jack Sang?)
Review: I this is a very good movie written by Sammo Hung I must say this it is a very childish movie! As it was was made to be this is the considerd the second movie in the very long series that just continues. actully the series borrows from Winners and sinners(considerd to be the first) but isn't also Pom Pom borrows from winners and sinners. Most of this movie is about nothing but jokes about grooping and rapeing women. I dont want to say too much about this movie becuase I want you to watch it but first one must watch winners and sinners. Kang Jack sang is only in the first 3 movies a little sammo comes in and out from time to time after the first three but it is a stupid movie and if you dont like those dont watch the movie but I love sammo hung he is a great actor and writer he just never got as huge as Kang Jack Sang(Jakie Chan) Becuase he likes to share the spot light and isnt as selfcentered as Kang Jack Sang.

Richard eing funny funny man
Yuen Baio great stunt guy and actor I think never got famious but needs a hand used to do a lot of Kang Jack sang's (JACKIE CHAN'S) stunts ALL THE TIME but never got the credit.

I like some of Kang Jack Sang's movies but I don't respect him as a person

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Awesome! Buy My Lucky Stars now!
Review: I wasn't expecting much from this film, and I turned out loving it! A great surprise! There's not a whole lot of JC in this one, but the movie starts out awesome, is awesome in the middle, and is still awesome at the end. Definitely recommended.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: VERY GOOD, BUT DON'T BUY IT TO SEE JACKIE CHAN
Review: IN THIS SEQUEL TO WINNERS & SINNERS, A COP [JACKIE CHAN] ORDERS FIVE OF HIS CHILDHOOD FRIENDS TO BE RELEASED FROM JAIL SO THAT THEY CAN HELP HIM CATCH A CRIMINAL MASTERMIND AND HELP RESCUE HIS KIDNAPPED PARTNER [YUEN BIAO]. EVEN THOUGH JACKIE CHAN IS ON THE COVER, YOU'RE NOT REALLY GONNA SEE TOO MUCH OF JACKIE CHAN IN THIS MOVIE. THIS IS REALLY A SAMMO HUNG MOVIE. OTHER THAN THAT, THIS MOVIE FEATURES SPECTACULAR FIGHTS FROM BEGINNING TO END. ALSO HAS SOME HILLARIOUS MOMENTS. THIS DVD HAS AN ENGLISH-DUBBED TRACK AS WELL AS THE ORIGINAL CANTONESE TRACK.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Nice Movie!!!
Review: Is a very good movie...with sammo hung, and others very good actors. Have a good history,good actors, and much comedy!!

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Not so much a Jackie Chan movie...
Review: My lucky stars does not have much Jackie in it, but the parts he is in are great. The car chase at the begining and the funfair fight that follows are amazing, and the end fight scene is one of the best Jackie has ever done! The rest of the movie is done by the stars of the 'Lucky Stars' series. The cast are very talented, so the absence of Jackie is only noticable if you are a hardcore fan. An all round good film.
