Top Critics Reviews
rotten:
The pic reps an uneven ride that is repeatedly stalled by grandstanding anti-colonial screeds.

Will likely leave most ... viewers dazed, confused and eagerly watching the clock.

What a pity this workout doesn't deliver a stronger kick.

rotten:
Lackluster, slow and with only hints of the combo of kineticism, kung fu and comedy that was part of Chan's appeal in the first place, Chinese Zodiacdoesn't do justice to the actor's filmic heritage.
