camille l Premier film avec Donnie Yen, en star qui plus est, Drunken Tai Chi ressemble à tout ce que Yuen Woo-Ping a pu faire auparavant. Le film est une comédie balourde remplie de combats qui n'ont pas lieu d'être et qui pourtant délivrent tout ce qu'on attend d'un tel déluge de non-sens bien hongkongais. Or, Drunken Tai Chi se trouve être un peu plus réussi que les Miracle Fighters, probablement grâce à sa star, qui bouffe l'écran dès qu'il le peut, et grâce à son rythme, un peu plus soutenu que les précédents films de Yuen Woo-Ping. Certains passages sont vraiment réussis, comme le breakdance de l'immense Donnie Yen et la musique est particulièrement bonne (et moderne). Il en reste qu'un tel n'importe quoi fatigue bien avant le générique de fin. C'est bien dommage car si Yuen Woo-Ping se canalisait, il pourrait faire de très bons films, presque au niveau de Stephen Chow.
