Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaAccording to the commentary: the fight scene with the horseshoe was nearly impossible to do with a fake horseshoe, as it was too light. Jackie Chan, however, refused to strike any of the stuntmen with a real horseshoe, saying it was too dangerous.
- GoofsIf Chon Wang is an Imperial Guard, then that means that PeiPei is an imperial princess (i.e. Emperor's daughter). In the movie, the guards all call her "Gong Zhu", but that refers to a king's daughter. An imperial princess is supposed to be called a "Ge Ge."
- Quotes
Roy O'Bannon: Ooooh... who's the pretty lady?
Chon Wang: That's my wife!
Roy O'Bannon: How long you been in this country?
Chon Wang: Four days.
Roy O'Bannon: Nice work.
- Crazy creditsOuttakes from the filming of the movie.
- Alternate versionsIn the US television version, the subtitled line "This is some pretty powerful shit" has been changed to "This is some pretty powerful herb".
Featured review
It's Jackie Chan! (again...)
Jackie Chan is a master martial artist and stuntman. Every film he stars in is an exercise in demonstrating his skill in different, creative ways. If you go to see this movie expecting anything different, you'll be sorely disappointed.
However, if you're a Chan fan, prepare to be amazed once again. It's not the same spectacle one would find in previous works such as Rumble in the Bronx, but impressive nevertheless. Furthermore, the plot that ties these action sequences together is better than can be found in most films of the same genre. The clash between far east and wild west cultures and cinematographic stereotypes is amusing enough to keep the film entertaining throughout, and Chan's own tongue-in-cheek sense of humor makes the piece that much more delightful to watch.
Don't look for this one at the next Academy Awards, but then that's not what Jackie Chan is all about, is it. If you want a couple of hours of mindless entertainment and spectacle, this is the one to see.
