DVD REVIEW:
It's finally nice to
see Jackie Chan in another Hong Kong movie. It's obvious this film
has an international appeal with the selection of different actors
from different countries and the use of English, Korean and
Cantonese.
As for the movie,
Jackie Chan is trying to find his father. He is told that
his father is a man from Korea who is dying and appears to be a
bad guy. Typical of Jackie Chan movies is the beautiful cop
and an adventure that takes you from Hong Kong to Korea to
Turkey. Also, you get an introduction to one of the most
popular Asian actresses in the East, Vivian Tsu (Taiwan and
Japanese pop singer/actress).
This movie is way
better than "Who Am I?" and the acting is much better as
well.
As for the movie, the
audio is fantastic via DTS and the video is beautiful as well but
unfortunately not anamorphic. As for special features, there
is a pretty cool making of featurette but unfortunately it is not
subtitled in English.
Otherwise a solid
movie for Jackie Chan and much better than "Rumble in the
Bronx", "Who Am I?" and other movies of his that
may be distributed internationally.
THE MOVIE: B+
THE DVD EXTRAS: B-
THE DVD OVERALL: B
