REVIEWS RATE: Critics Readers [Rate It]

“..this definitely is a movie where the enjoyment is contingent on how forgiving of its star one is willing to be. Good thing then, that the star is Jackie Chan..”

by Jedd Jong [FMovieMag.com]

“..the alleged final action film from martial arts star Jackie Chan is a hideous cocktail of cynicism, sanctimony and pedestrian filmmaking..”

by Elizabeth Kerr [Hollywood Reporter]

“..silly adventure about recovering lost historic artefacts feels as fake as the zodiac bronzes used in the film..”

by Andrew Sun [South China Morning Post]

“..a mildly diverting, predictably written and earnestly executed action adventure..”

by Edmund Lee [Time Out Hong Kong]

“..a middling effort at trying to capture the Jackie Chan glory from of old - only half as funny and nowhere nearly as exciting..”

by Gabriel Chong [movieXclusive.com]
