Overview

Cabbie-turned-chauffeur Jimmy Tong learns there is really only one rule when you work for playboy millionaire Clark Devlin : Never touch Devlin’s prized tuxedo. But when Devlin is temporarily put out of commission in an explosive accident, Jimmy puts on the tux and soon discovers that this extraordinary suit may be more black belt than black tie. Paired with a partner as inexperienced as he is, Jimmy becomes an unwitting secret agent.

Viewing Notes

Picked up this DVD from the library book sale. Haven’t seen this movie since around whenever it was released to home media and forgot most of it bc it’s a very forgettable movie. I give it props for cast and some of the action beats. The humor is fine and it’s fun to see Jennifer Love and Jackie Chan paired up as an unlikely duo. Everything is super silly but it looks like they were having fun (neat to see the outtakes during the credit roll like in Jackie’s HK features). Definitely not one of Jackie’s better Hollywood flicks but nice to see him do his thing in the studio system again.
