Karry Best movie of this year hands down!

Pluskylang Great Film overall

Maidexpl Entertaining from beginning to end, it maintains the spirit of the franchise while establishing it's own seal with a fun cast

Roxie The thing I enjoyed most about the film is the fact that it doesn't shy away from being a super-sized-cliche;

hellraiser7 This film is another under the radar gem from both my favorite Martial arts stars Jackie Chan and Sammo Hung. It's not quite a favorite of my nor do I feel it's one of their best in my book but still it was a fun entry all the same.Not much to say for the film, the plot which by it's nature is a clothesline just to get the ensemble cast together, kinda like with "Oceans Eleven". I really do like the ensemble they consist mainly of comedic actors whom are really popular in the Hong Kong scene. One of my favorites of the ensemble is the guy that plays Sandy, his character is bizarre but really funny. He's suppose to be a con man that is faking craziness just to stay at the asylum for free for the meals; though the guy might have been spending a little too much time there as he's developed this delusion that he has psychic powers which of course he doesn't.But of course were really hear for Sammo, Jackie, and even Yuen Biao despite in the film very briefly. As usually both Sammo and Jackie are really good at being their regular selves, and I really like the chemistry between both of them despite brief which is one weak point of the film for me. Even like there is a little depth on their friendship as there is a slight strain because of the fact both went different directions which just all the more want us for them to be together again.The music is very good, I really love that end credit theme song which is another of my favorite theme songs of all time, it's has both a fun and exciting tone to it.The comedy is solid, I really like that betting gag where someone has a hair brained scheme to make quick money which of course we easily guess doesn't work out, or where the crew is playing charades to get their eats, let alone seeing Jackie in a mascot costume which looks like one of those My Buddy dolls.The action is great as usual, from the beginning battle at the outside of the amusement park, the confined space fight with ninjas at Jackies's home, though of course my favorite is the battle at the Haunted House which is one of my favorite battles of all time. What I love about it how it is structured, it's kinda like a video game where there are different sections which present different obstacles much like stages in video games.And of course one of my favorite one on one with the female cop of the group against this Japanise Woman (forgot her name) whom is built and I thought is fraking hot, she definitely looks great in that ahem aerobic get up. The fight between them is both exciting and erotic, what can I say there is something about a fight between two attractive females that a turn on for me, I'm honestly not sure why.The only bad things are not all of the comedy works, like that whole tieing up gag I thought was redundant and old, really slowed things up. Most of the ensemble don't really have much to do in the mission, it should of been more like a heist film where each team member has something to contribute. Let alone the middle was a bit slow not much happened but once the third act begun when Jackie comes back in the picture (which took a great deal of time) things got going again.Overall this is another solid martial arts gem, if your a fan of both Jackie and Sammo then this is worth a look, it's a lucky find.Rating: 3 stars

BA_Harrison My Lucky Stars, the sequel to hit HK comedy Winners and Sinners, is another huge serving of not-so-funny slapstick humour and irritatingly puerile hi-jinx from Sammo Hung and pals; nevertheless, its still worth persevering all of this silliness for the outstanding martial arts action sequences that bookend the film.The movie opens in excellent style with kung fu cops Muscles (Jackie Chan) and Ricky (Yuen Baio) on the trail of Japanese gangsters. After an exciting car chase with an amazing jump over a transporter lorry, and a fight against ninjas in a theme park, Ricky is taken hostage by the gang. Afraid that he will be recognised if he attempts to rescue his partner, Muscles decides to enlist the help of his old orphanage pals, most of whom are now petty criminals.There then follows a tedious hour or so of lame comedy, in which the reunited childhood friends play repetitive practical jokes on pretty cop Barbara Woo (Sibelle Hu) and generally act like immature morons. If you can make it past this laugh-less garbage without switching off, then your patience will be rewarded with a terrific finalé in which Chan fights a series of foes in a haunted house, Sammo and friends take on the nasty gangsters (including martial arts veteran Lam Ching Ying), and a memorable moment where Sibelle Hu has a scrap with a musclebound geisha, played by Michiko Nishiwaki.Whilst I'd happily recommend My Lucky Stars to fervent fans of fight action (and of Chan in particular), those looking for a laugh might be advised to seek their entertainment elsewhere (unless, of course, they think that curly haired bus-drivers, jokes about rape, and silly song and dance routines are incredibly funny).6.5 out of 10, but just not good enough for me to round my rating up to 7.

beardzepirate this film might start out kinda slow but once sammo Hung's introduced into the action things get funny.backed by a bunch of crazy crazy friends ranging from ladies men to institutionalised mental patients Hung's character has to go and find his missing friend (Jackie Chan) along the way some funny stuff happens like eating tainted grapes (youll see) to ordering dinner via mimes (seriously funny i nearly ended up crying) as well as the usual plot developments and cool fights.overall a really funny film that'll have you laughing at every crazy gag and loving every fight (especially when Jackie and sammo get ambushed in a house lol great fight)

dragon ma young this was more comedy than action, but i still enjoyed it. not enough jackie though. more of him in it, and all the lack of action would have been forgiven. but the action that exists is good and fun. my least favorite of the kung-fu-teers films that ive seen, but still enjoyable.
