Having two directors, and a different choreographer for each fight sequence, gives the movie a split personality -- and neither personality is particularly enjoyable to meet.

Amusing all the way and not something Chan fans should skip.
Mick LaSalle, San Francisco Chronicle
Rotten
It's all pretty dumb, but if you're in the mood for this sort of thing, you won't have a bad time.
Mark Caro, Chicago Tribune
Rotten
The emphasis here is on farce rather than action, to an extent that may disappoint hard-core martial arts fanatics.
