Screen International

This Mandarin-language remake of the 2000 Mel Gibson blockbuster rarely rises above a genial likability, lacking sufficient comic or romantic brio.

Andy Lau and Gong Li are appealing leads, but this Chinese-language carbon copy doesn't find a distinctive voice.

I don't know why a movie this predictable should run as long as it does.

Characters are more likeable and more interesting than the Mel Gibson/Helen Hunt characters of the original. Definitely more interesting than the original.
