Reviews


75
San Francisco Chronicle - Bob Graham
This good-natured comedy is set off by the high spirits of its stars.
75
Chicago Tribune - Michael Wilmington
It's the kind of copycat movie that becomes original through its cast and treatment.
70
Variety - Joe Leydon
A frankly formulaic but raucously entertaining action comedy.
60
The New York Times - Elvis Mitchell
At regular intervals the film stops short for similiarly nifty Chan choreography, letting the star flip, swivel, scamper up walls and hurl large objects with his feet.
60
Film Threat - Ron Wells
The stunts are great but they make sense and don't blow the sense of reality of the whole movie.
