Another Jackie Chan feature, courtesy of Dish Network HD. OK, this one is just weird. I don't know why it's set in Spain. I don't know why the first scene had Jackie and friends skateboarding while wearing atrocious 1980s pastels, and then the *next* scene had them waking up and starting their day.
Is the skateboarding a dream sequence? Or just bad editing?
The plot involves something about a hottie pickpocket who's really a missing heiress, and Sammo Hung in a stupid bowler hat playing a would-be private dick. And normally, you can just ignore the plot in a Kung Fu flick. Unfortunately, in this one the plot is *so* bad, and *so* ridiculous that it overwhelms everything else.
There's a ridiculous van-car chase, *more* skateboarding, a Chinese pop song, and finally, 10 minutes before the end, one good fight scene.
Save yourself -- this one's just not worth watching.
