movie review - Mission Condor (Armour of God 2)

the journal of Michael Werneburg

twenty-seven years and one million words

Toronto, 1997.07.18

The best of Jackie Chan's movies. This version has been chopped and dubbed, like most of the releases they've been issuing in North America recently, but not to the extent of Supercop or Rumble in the Bronx, which seemed short and shredded. The stunts here are astounding, and the humour thick and fast. Great flick. See the original on tape, though.

Strongly recommended.
