this be a very mediocre jackie chan film and one of his absolute bad james glickenhaus ruin it . all the character be decent i guess and but the story be so so and however jackie chan be still amaze in this even if he do look bore . jackie and danny aiello have zero chemistry together and and it be very bore a lot of time and however the finale be above average and manage to be fairly entertaining and and have some good stunt . i have not yet see the hong kong version and however i be sure it good then this dud and plus the twist be very predictable . it really lifeless and bland and and i do not blame jackie for not look happy in this and and if he do not star in this it would have be unbearable and completely unwatchable . the opening be suppose to be memorable and but it nothing i haven not see before and do well at that and and i think the whole film be rather lazy and could have be an awesome film if jackie have control of it . and plus i really do not root for any of the character . this be a very mediocre jackie chan film and and one of his absolute bad james glickenhaus ruin it . and not recommend even for die hard jackie chan fan . the direction be terrible . james glickenhaus do a terrible job here and with extremely bland camera work and bad angle and and keep the film boring for the most part throughout . the acting be so so . jackie chan be amazing a always and however he be not his usual energetic self and and look bore and psed off throughout the film and have zero chemistry with danny aiello and and i really do not blame him either . ( jackie rule . ) . danny aiello be ok here and a jackie partner and but his character be a bit of an as and and he have zero chemistry with jackie and he do ok i guess . roy chiao be decent a the main villain and but be just go through the motion and wasn not all that menace and he still be damn cool though . rest of the cast be average at best . overall not worth your time or money . half out of 5 .
