My rating: 8/10
Will I watch it again? Yes.
Boy, it's been too long since I watched a Jackie Chan flick and longer still since I saw this one. I seem to recall he did another Drunken Master movie in the 70s that was better than this one. Chan is a work of art in fluid motion. His physicality is uncanny. The fight choreography (by Chan) is superb and most of all, fun as all hell. I also dig his sense of humor and playfulness. This picture oozes with fun from start to finish. Any video clip from this movie speaks volumes more than I could ever muster up.
THE AWESOMENESS STARTS HERE!
I'm a big Jackie fan, but somehow I've never seen this one. Thanks for reminding me :)
