      camille l The Killer Meteors pourrait être un sympathique film de sabre chinois s'il n'avait cette envie d'être plus malin que la moyenne en multipliant les twists totalement stupides dans la deuxième partie du métrage. Le film de Wei Lo est dynamique, on y trouve deux ou trois chorégraphies réjouissantes, surtout quand Jackie Chan (dans un rare rôle de méchant) est à l'écran, mais avec quatre scènes de combat dans un océan d'exposition délivré par l'insupportablement fade Jimmy Wang Yu qui dure près de deux heures, c'est l'ennui plus que l'excitation qui prévaut. Les personnages vont et viennent au gré du prochain twist, la mise en scène est d'une pauvreté folle, The Killer Meteors n'est jamais réellement intéressant en dehors de la présence d'un Jackie Chan trop peu là. C'est bien dommage. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Audience Member Jackie chan goes dark 4 this one playing the bad guy Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/21/23 Full Review Audience Member The Killer Meteors boasts one of the earliest roles of Jackie Chan but truth be told Chan is rarely on screen and the east of the film is absurd fight choreography, wires, bad make-up and effects, and terrible editing. The tired plot becomes overly complicated towards the end making the dull film even more tiresome. Not recommended for fans of Kung fu films unless you enjoy those types that are all wires and little skill. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 01/27/23 Full Review Audience Member This Fairly Good Martial Arts Tale, Features Jackie Chan (As A Villain) & Jimmy Wang Yu. A Dying Warrior (Chan), Sends Fellow Rival Warrior (Jimmy Wang Yu), To Find An Antidote For The Poison Given To Him By His Wife, Chan Also Wants His Wife Dead. The Film Follows The Adventure & The Scheming Tactics Of Chan's Character. A Film Which Is Easily Forgotten, But Is A Must For Chan Fans, As It Marks A Rarely Seen Performance As The Villain For Chan. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/21/23 Full Review Audience Member This one gets trashed for two reasons: 1: it's advertised as a Jackie Chan movie while he gets very little screentime in a villain role, and 2: Lo Wei's reputation has been somewhat disgraced by all the triad dirt. On its own terms, though, this is a great so-bad-it's-good kung-fu flick filled with hilarious dubbing, plenty of bloodletting and surprisingly pretty locations. The plot is a pathetic mess, but to be honest, the same is true for most films with wuxia leanings. A lot of fun. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/19/23 Full Review Audience Member This movie makes no sense at all. The only reason to watch it to see Jackie Chan play a bad guy and you have to wait half an hour for him to even show up. Not worth your time.
