Rating: 5 stars
Summary: The action and camera shots were spectacular.
Review: I believe this was one of Jackie's finest. I am from Melbourne and saw some of the filming which makes it more special for me. The horse carriage ride and the Melbourne Central fight were the highest points of the movie ,showing some of Jackie's strength , agility and fighting skills. Overall a top movie

Summary: Quality Jackie
Review: This was good Jackie. Some incredible fast paced action scenes and a cheesy plot that you just have to laugh at. The fighting is some of Jackie's best and this is a much better buy then Rumble in the Bronx or Supercop.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Jackie Chan does it again
Review: This movie has one of the most amazing fight scenes that I have ever seen. As Jackie fights thugs in a construction yard, everyday construction objects such as cement mixers, wheelbarrows, and boards become deadly weapons in his hands. There is a lot of humor thrown in and some great special effects. The only disappointing part is that the ending is somewhat cheesy. The movie ends by a means other than Chan's own lightning-fast hands. Other than that, Mr. Nice Guy was a great movie and I definately recommend buying it.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Not one of his best, but still worth adding to a collection.
Review: Another JC film set in Australia, with plenty of good fight scenes and an equal number of bad actors...

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Action galore!!!
Review: This film is certainly not an Academy Award Winner, but it most definitely is just a plain old good action film with tons of senseless fighting. The fighting is incredible in this film and the stunts are quite impressive, the choreography and the stunts are what make this film good, don't expect a great story or any great acting.

The story isn't nearly as bad as I expected it to be, it's actually quite interesting and takes a little bit of step aside from Jackie Chan's typical cop character. This time he's simply a TV chef that gets mixed up in things against his will. It sounds pretty stupid, but it's not all that bad.

The acting and even more so, the dialogue are two things that I'm not even going to begin to defend. The acting is pretty bad at times and the dialogue is god-awful! Sadly, a lot of the bad dialogue could easily have been avoided, I don't know what the writers/director was thinking.

Virtually all of the cast members were new faces to me, with of course, the exception of Jackie Chan. Jackie does a good job with his role, exactly what you would expect from one of his films. I feel I have to mention Gabrielle Fitzpatrick, what a beautiful actress!!! And she's actually a pretty good actress, I'll definitely be keeping an eye open for her future work.

If you are a fan of Martial Art films, or just like Jackie Chan, then watch this movie. Just watch this film thinking you are going to have a fun time watching Jackie kick some bad-guy butt!

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: mr boring movie
Review: I think this is one of Jackie Chan's lesser movies. If you really want to see a cool movie with Jackie and Richard Norton, check out City Hunter! I suppose this has a few good stunts, but compared to what we know he can put out this movie is pretty dull. Richard Norton is cast as a wimp, which he is not. Go for something else.
