This film is absolute genius, no it won't win any Oscars, yes the acting is incredibly over the top and yes the plot and script make no senses whatsoever but if you switch off your brain and just enjoy the spectacle of it all it is wonderful. The visual effects are fittingly caricatured and the characters suitably outlandish. Stephen Chow has successfully married the comedy of Buster Keaton and Charlie Chaplin with the digital mastery of modern day effects to create something truly unique. If you are a fan of old style physical comedy and Jackie Chan then you will love this film, it is a fantastic Saturday afternoon movie for all of the family.
