Movie Reviews of Heart of Dragon
Movie Review: Can we say "bleh?"
Summary: 3 Stars
I think Jackie Chan is an amazing actor. I think Sammo Hung is really great as well. But the dramatic roles? I don't think they pan out as well for either of them. I think this movie is pretty good, but I could barely watch some of the parts because it was turning too mushy... too "chick-flick"ish. I like the action, like the comedy, but the dramatic sign of it is too much. Sorry, Jacki, sorry Sammo, better luck next time. :) My suggestion: get this if you want to see Jackie Chan and Sammo Hung's mushy sides.Movie Review: Las películas de Jakie Chan, aunque no son muy biuenas, valen la pena, nada más por ver todo lo que hace. Los años no le afectan

Summary: 2 Stars
Awful dubbing and terrible soundtrack are but two of the reasons you should skip this film. The tired cliche of a man who must sacrifice his own freedom to play caretaker for a gentle mentally deficient adult male is trotted out once again in this film that does not know what genre it wants to be. Sammo Hung plays the rotund brother of police officer Jackie Chan whose dreams of becoming a sailor are superceeded by his obligation to his brother. Althought the movie tries to generate pathos through Hung's character, many of the mishaps he falls into due to his deficiency are played for laughs, resulting in an uncomfortable mishmash of comedy and drama. In addition, there are several action scenes that are played "over-the-top" that seem ridiculously out of place in a movie that spends the first two-thirds at such an excruciatingly slow pace that you may be tempted to turn it off. There are numerous plot holes that leave the viewer scratching his head and the ending montage is laughable in its sentimentality. Plus, there is more than one shot of Hung's naked buttocks which will haunt my nightmares for years to come.Movie Review: serious drama, atypical Chan movie
Summary: 1 Stars
This movie pairs Jackie up with his 'big brother', Samo Hung. They play brothers in the film, not much unlike Tom Cruise and Dustin Hoffman in Rainman. There is very little action in this movie, it is more of a drama. In fact, I don't even think Jackie cracks a smile once in this movie- it is kind of a tear-jerker, relying more on acting than action. If you are looking for the typical Jackie Chan comedy and action, look elsewhere. It is worth having if you are huge fan, however.
