See more Carlos T @RT67858720 08/03/2023 Minha opinião: Este é um dos últimos trabalhode Jackie com o estilo de filme de Kung-Fu a moda antiga. Onde em um ano chegavam a fazer quase 1 filme por mês. Utilizavam os mesmo atores e coadvantes de um filme para outro e até com roteiros parecidos. Deste período o mais famoso de Jackie foi Drunke Master. E este momento de transição com filmes atuais a época e onde ganha além das lutas muita comédia. Com os parceiros Sammo Hung, Yuen Biao, Richard Ng, Eric Tsang, nesta época de Detonando em Barcelona e Projeto A. Depois vem uma nova fase com Police Story que é mais um marco em sua vida. Depois vem vários filmes em Holywood com parcerias com atores americanos, Chris Tucker, Owen Wilson, Schwazwneger, Johnny Knoxville, Burt Reynolds, Roger Moore. E várias atrizes; Michele Yeon, Maggie Cheung, Brigitte Lin, Lola Forner, MAdeline Carroll, Françoise Yep, Jennifer Love, Chrlie Yeung, Kumiko Goto, ... Neste filme por incrível que pareça não são as coreografia o ponto forte e sim os jogos que tem nela. No inicio do filme eles disputam e subir ao topo e pegar o premio e depois uma disputa de petaca futebol. Se os chineses jogarem futebol como na peteca, será imbatível. E tem um inimigo que deseja ser o mais forte da província até se até se deparar com Jackie. Roteiro e enredo fracos, mas as cenas nas competições valem apena. Vale apena assistir? Para quem deseja ver algo diferente e fã de Jackie. Nota: 5,5 See more 10/31/2015 Review: I was really looking forward to watching this movie because it seemed like one of those authentic Kung Fu movies that I used to watch back in the day but it turned out to be quite disappointing. In this movie, Chan plays a talented sportsman with some impressive Kung Fu skills but he can't help getting himself in trouble with friends while they go around the village causing mischief. Chan then meets a girl who he tries to impress by fighting any and everyone but he ends up messing with the wrong guys who are stealing precious artifacts to ship to China. He then gets blamed for stealing some of the artifacts and he ends up fighting for his life, even though he's innocent. Although it was made in the earlier days of Chans career, it's still packed with the silly comedy that I'm really getting fed up with. The end fight, which seemed a bit pointless, was very impressive because Chan is really going nuts but the rest of the film is just about Chan trying to woo a girl. The comedic side of the movie was also pretty poor, along with the acting but like a lot of Chans movies, the action is really worth waiting for. You can tell that the director added the artifact element to try and give the movie some depth but that was also disappointing. At the end of the day, it's worth a watch just for the last fight but the rest of the movie was a waste of time. Disappointing!  Round-Up: This was the third movie to be directed by Jackie Chan, after the success of the Young Master, so with that in mind it was a big achievement for Chan in the earlier part of his career but I just can't understand why he has to add them silly comedic scenes. That's why Bruce Lee has always been called the master because his fighting was unique and his films were all decent. I'm struggling with Jackie Chan because he has only made a handful of movies that were great. Maybe the best is yet to come! I still have quite a few movies to get through during this Jackie Chan so I'm hoping that it will pick up soon. I recommend this movie to people who are into their action/comedy/sport/martial arts movies starring Jackie Chan, Mars, Wai-Man Chan and Lei Suet. 3/10 See more 01/24/2015 Girls get happy when guys get funny. A gang of thieves settle their greatness through a series of games similar to hacky sack mixed with martial arts. Dragon, a martial arts student, is constantly after girls. He finds that the only way to get what he wants is to enter the tournament, he and his friends to win, and make a name for himself. He finds this task harder than it may appear. "One little, two little, six little Indians. Six little Indian boys." "You left out like three Indians." Jackie Chan, director of Project A 1 & 2, Police Story 1 & 2, Who Am I, 1911, Chinese Zodiac, My Story, Armour of God 1 & 2, and The Brothers, delivers Dragon Lord. The storyline for this picture is very mediocre and the action is creative but not as good as one may hope for. The acting is fairly cliché and the cast includes Jackie Chan, Jessica Gee, Cam Clarke, and Wai-Man Chan. "I send them nice girls and you send them running." I grabbed this off Netflix as a Jackie Chan martial arts picture I had never seen. I thought this was a step down from his Project A and Operation Condor pictures. This was a very average martial arts film that is only worth watching if you're a fan of the genre. "Locate him, catch him, kill him."
