carlos t Minha opinião: Jackie fez mais de 100 filmes, e este não esta no Top 10. O roteiro é simples, uma pessoa comum que se confunde como um espião. E assim e feito uma estória cheia de porrada, acrobacias e ação. Com atrizes bonitas como a Vivian e Kim. Com a presença de um arqui inimigo internacional. Um filme que demonstra o pais da Turquia, tanto dos seus banhos turcos. Como Jackie gosta de mostrar ao Chinês, tantos lugares diferentes tem no mundo. Pena que nunca veio ao Brasil. O grande criminoso seu império e Jackie luta para impedir e trabalha junto da Interpol. No final tem uma cena muito parecida como Speed com Keanu Reeves. Roteiro: razoavel Vale apena assistir? Sim, no estilo Sessão da Tarde. Nota: 5,5 Rated 2.5/5 Stars •  Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 03/30/23 Full Review Audience Member kinda enjoyable, great choreography! Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/16/23 Full Review Audience Member Surprised at all the downvotes. I actually enjoyed this. It had more story than many of his earlier movies and the stunts were pretty creative. Yes, not as much kung fu - but plenty of action. Less cheesy comedy. I really liked it a lot. Just realized after first writing, that the film released in USA cut about 20 minutes of the film, changed some of the plot, and really messed it up. For example, they weren't chasing opium but weaponized Anthrax. (makes so much more sense.) Original version which I found online was SO much better. This was really an exciting film and its too bad Americans didn't get to see that version. Idiot American distributors. I actually think the original is is one of Jackie's best "real" films - like an Asian Bourne Identity with over the top big action stunts and brilliant choreography.

Rated 1/5 Stars •  Rated 1 out of 5 stars 02/19/23 Full Review Audience Member Review: This movie sees Chan, Buck Yuen, play an over enthusiastic salesman who struggles to get sales in a fitness store and is constantly pushed around by his boss. Whilst going out for lunch in the shopping complex were he works, he witnesses a robbery and all of a sudden, he becomes an action hero by recovering the money from the robbers and getting the culprits captured by the police. His name is then plastered all of over the media and he is tracked down by a private investigator who is looking for a rich man son whose last wish, on his death bed, is to reunite with him. After his father passes away, he is left with these random clues which point to a lot of money and a priceless formula for liquid opium. He then follows the clues which lead him to Turkey but he is hunted down by various spies who also want the priceless formula. With the help of undercover agents, he tackles through the various hitmen that want to kill him for the formula and, as usual, he manages the stop the baddies and saves the day. I liked the first half of this movie because you get to see a normal side to Chan, without all of the superhero abilities but when he switches to a Bond type character, it just ends up to be your everyday action movie which we have seen Chan star in, many times before. Half of the time, he did look a bit dazed and confused through the film and it really amazed me how he had the ability to fight off the baddies after being such an average salesman in a shop. Anyway, there are some good stunts throughout the film and Chan really does push the action to the limit by running through a market naked whilst fighting off the baddies. The showdown at the end was quite impressive but when I found out that the whole film was based around a agent who wanted to catch the top dog, it all seemed a bit pointless. Anyway, it's worth a watch just to see the action scenes and a everyday Chan but it's nothing that we haven't seen before. Watchable! Round-Up: This movie was directed by Teddy Chan whose known for the 2014 movie, Kung Fu Killer starring Donnie Yen. This is the first movie that he has made with Chan and you can see that he didn't really give this movie his all by the way that he is acting throughout the film. After watching some of the movies that Chan has directed himself, like the Police Story franchise, I really did notice a difference between the two movies and the glum look on Chans face proves that he doesn't like to be directed by people who he hasn't worked with before. Don't get me wrong, he does show some true emotion through the film and the attention to detail in the action scenes were spot on but he just seemed a bit distant throughout the film. Chan was 48 when this movie was released and he still was able to pull of those amazing stunts with ease. You wouldn't believe that he was pushing towards 50 whilst watching it. Now at 61 there's no sign of him slowing down and with another Rush Hour and Karate Kid in the pipeline along with the recent release of Dragon Blade with John Cusack and Adrien Brody, he really is a true action hero. I recommend this movie to people who are into their action/thriller/martial arts/comedies starring Jackie Chan, Eric Tsang. Vivian Hsu and Min Kim. 4/10 Rated 2/5 Stars •  Rated 2 out of 5 stars 01/18/23 Full Review Read all reviews
