IMDB
Sammo, Jackie Chan and Yuen Baio team up once again in this kung fu comedy. Jackie plays a womanizing lawyer who falls in love with the cousin of a girl he's having a case against. Sammo and Yuen Baio are friends of Jackie's who are trying to help him spy on the girl. Jackie works for a chemical corporation and the girl is claiming that they're killing all of her fish.
This flick is filled with silly comedy and excellent fighting. Jackie Chan is at his best, fighting very fluidly (noticed how jerky the fights can be after watching some other kung fu flicks recently) and fast. The plot is above average for a Jackie Chan movie. While I do tend to prefer the period kung fu movies, I still really like Jackie Chan. Sammo and Yuen Baio are also excellent. Yuen Baio does some great acrobatics. Neither do as much fighting as Chan, sadly.
8/10
