Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Its not SuperCop
Review: And its certainly no Justice to Michelle Yeoh, go watch Crouching Tiger, Hidden dragon or see The Heroic Trio to truly see her do her thang. This film was boring, no action scenes, no martial arts. And jackie chans cameo was embarassing. This movie is crap all the way. I hate to say that, but it was so boring.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Good movie done poorly
Review: Don't let the reviews misguide you, on either account, this was a potentially good movie done horribly wrong. Yeoh is a great figher, and she's just as quick and nimble as Chan, but we are only treated to one real right scene by her? Not only that, but that fight scene is interrupted by her Co-stars less than stellar fight scenes? Is it because she's female? Heck, it got so bad at one point, that it looked like Yeoh was going to be beaten do death (literally) by a hired goon. Why 3 stars? Cause she beats the crap outta the goon in a spectacular manner and does some of her trademark poses afterwards.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: hard to watch
Review: i almost purchased this one a while back and decided to rent it instead; boy am i glad i did that. i agree with a previous reviewer that yeoh is stiff as a board when it comes to acting in this flick. she never puts her own spin on the character, not like the coolness of a chow yun fat or the silliness of a jackie chan. too little action and too uninteresting of a plot to pay full price for this dvd. if you can find it used or only want to finish a hk dvd collection, it might be worth getting, but i suggest renting this if you have any doubts

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Unbearable
Review: I don't expect much from martial art movies but action. This movie didn't even have that! I was facinated by Michelle Yeoh after seeing her in "Tomorrow Never Dies". I was hoping to see more of Michelle Yeoh's skills in this one, but the movie didn't catch my attention long enough. I only recommend this movie for insomniacs!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: not a bad movie
Review: I don't get why this movie got such low scores. I mean this isn't the best movie out there. But still this was a phenomenal movie.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: this movie is hot
Review: if your into action movies this one is for you. and this movie is so much better than the first one.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: not that bad
Review: Just because Jackie Chan is only in the movie for like 2 minites doesn't mean that this movie is bad. I mean michelle yeoh did decent in this movie but is not as good as Jackie Chan. And I will admit that I really wanted Jackie Chan to do the whole movie like in the first one but anyway this movie is just as good as the first.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Superb
Review: Just because Jackie Chan isn't in the movie for long doesn't mean that this movie is bad. And Michelle Yeoh rocks from this movie.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Good Hong Kong Action.
Review: Now I said good--not great! This is a Michelle yeoh film, as the box states, not a Jackie Chan film, JC is in it for a strange 5 minutes. Yeoh is good--some excellent fight scenes, but the dubbing is horrible and the DVD has no option to leave it with subtitles- a big no-no. It's your basic HK action film with a little bit of story that may have worked, but the dubbing & delivery get in the way. I recommend Yeoh in "Wing Chun" for a fun traditional martial arts film.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Awesome Michelle Yeoh HK Movie!
Review: Ok, anyone who says the movie stunk because Jackie Chan isn't in it more than 5 minutes is a fool! It says right on the box "Michelle Yeoh is Supercop 2" and in little tiny print it says "With a special apperance by Jackie Chan as Inspector Chan" (His character from Supercop). This movie starts off with a bang and just keeps on going, and going! Michelle Yeoh is so awesome in this flick! She plays Jessica Yang (also her character from Supercop), and the semi-villian in the movie is played by Yu Rong Guang, who is an amazing actor (just see Iron Monkey, by Yuen Wo Ping, and you'll see why!) Anyhow, this movie is totally awesome, and the scene with Jackie Chan is very short, but really funny. I'd have given the movie five stars, but it ends sort strange, and it took away from the overall greatness of the movie. (Not that it was a bad ending, it just went too quick.) Anyway, see this movie! It rules!
