Viewing Notes

Jackie Chan! Good adventure flick with some excellent set pieces in different countries. Nice crossover between HK and India with some fun actors from both altho Jackie’s stunt double is pretty obvious. The car chase is fun and the animal stuff makes for decent comedy. My main criticism is that the movie / story completely whiffs the ending. Like in a major way. There’s this tremendous build-up then… ugh.

Still worth seeing for everything up that point. Also interesting to see Jackie basically upstaged by all his co-stars. Apparently that was also the case for his recent Railroad movie.
