Here Jackie returns to his role from The Myth, starring as archaeologist “Jack”. TrailerĪction legend Jackie Chan reunites with Stanley Tong, his long-time friend and director of some of his most successful films such as Police Story 3: Supercop, First Strike and Rumble in the Bronx. This was an excellent return to the Jackie from yesteryear.Jackie Chan is back in action in this fast-paced, fun, slapstick, globe-trotting romp directed by Stanley Tong. There is a car chase in the movie that is pretty fantastic. Instead, he provides us with typical action movie fluff. But he's too old to be breaking bones for our enjoyment. You'll See him do little stunts like jump through a luggage carrier with style (most of us half his age can't do that) and you'll see him do some really good old school kung fu moves like he did in Fearless Hyena.
It's not Jackie at his prime but he's at his best mixing humor with action. Jackie Chan plays Jack Chan (Really?) an archaeologist looking for a treasure that connects Chinese and Indian culture, and when he finds it this ultimate Bollywood Archetype comes after him for it. It's a great action adventure film (with a bad title) in what looks like it could be the sequel to Armour of the Gods or Operation Condor (which in America would be considered Armour of the Gods 2). Not enough dance routine to make that claim ( Unless like me you count Jackie's Kung Fu fighting as dancing) I herd some Bollywood director was suppose to film it but backed out leaving Chinese cinema veteran Stanley Tong to fill the void.
