Laughably Bad Action
11 July 2005
Warning: Spoilers
This is not really a Jackie Chan movie; because, Chan is only a minor character in it and appears briefly. A group of mercenaries is supposedly trying to rescue a group of generals being held captive by Japanese soldiers during World War II. There is another group though that's after the generals, so the mercenaries have to contend with that group as well as the Japanese. Along the way, they also run into a collection of weirdos, including vampires, ghosts, and even Amazon women. You know the quality of any movie is in doubt when Amazon women characters appear. It's always a lame attempt to corral the male audience's attention. The action is laughable in this movie and so are the effects. The soundtrack was stolen from several American movies of the time, which means this was a very low budget film. By the time that the end of the movie arrives, so many characters have died that you really don't care anymore. This is easily one of the top five worst movies that Jackie Chan has ever appeared in. 1/2 star of 4.
