    Absolute ploop! The dubbing in no way matches the subtitles - which for the first hour was quite amusing, then we realised we were not watching the film! We ended up turning it off because we could not take any more! Jackie Chan did not appear to have much of a role after the first 10 minutes - don't do it!

    Jackie Chan at His best

    One of the best Jackie Chan Movies ever. Has to be up there with wheels on meals and project a. Quality stunts and fight scenes.

    3 Brothers Rule!

    Any film with Jackie Chan, Sammo Hung and Yuen Biao in it gets my vote. One of a series of films Directed By Sammo, this film boasts Jackie as the star, but he is only in a third of it..... but what a third. The opening car chase and fight are fantastic, and whe sequence with Jackie dressed as a cartoon character in a funhouse is also very memorable. In the end though this is Sammo and his Lucky Stars' film. Childish comedy and slapstick for most, but don't forget, Sammo can kick ass with the best of them!

    And in this film he does.

    Sammo Hung a lucky star

    Sammo Hung not Jackie Chan is the one to watch in this film. For a big guy he can move and is very funny in this film.

    3 Brothers Rule!

    Any film that stars Jackie Chan, Sammo Hung and Yuen Biao gets my vote. One of a series of action comedies directed by Sammo Hung, this film boasts Jackie as the star, but he is only in about a third of the film..... but what a third.

    The opening car chase is fantastic with some crazy stunt work, and the sequence where Jackie is dressed as a cartoon character in a funhouse is also very memorable.

    The big fight at the end also has some nifty footwork. In the end though, this is Sammo's film. Childish and slapstick comedy for the most, but don't forget, Sammo can kick ass with the best of them, and in this film he does.

    An improvement

    Much better than its predecessor, 'Winners & sinners', although you still have to sit through an interminable middle section of so-called comedy, featuring Richard Ng trying to prove he's psychic, and poor Sibelle Hu getting tied up with each of the other cast members.

    On either side of this, though, there's a perfectly acceptable Chinese action movie, with some good Jackie Chan/Yuen Biao stuff at the start, and a wonderful climax in the baddies' lair behind an amusement park. Here you get to see the moves you've been waiting for, and Hung cuts out the indulgences and gets on with it.

    My Lucky stars

    I like this film, but i got confused for the simple reason on the video version all the characters apart from muscles have got different names, it put me off watching it all, if you have never seen this on video then it is a very funny film you will enjoy it, but dont watch it if your a jackie chan fan he is not in it a lot.
