Movie Reviews of Operation Condor 2: The Armour of the Gods
Movie Review: wots wiv america?
Summary: 5 Stars
y did they call it operation condor 2?, even u americans can work out this is the 1st of the series, and one of jackie chans all time greats! the movie is actually called 'Armour of God' this, along with meals on wheels, wos the 1st jc movie i ever saw (when i was about 6 yrs old!) and is still one of my faves. When u watch this movie u might notice a sudden change in the length of jackies hair, thats because he nearly died perfoming a (relatively straight forward) stunt damging his skull badly, the nurses in the yugoslavian hospital where jc woz treated had to shave his head so they could operate - he nearly died!
Summary of Operation Condor 2: The Armour of the Gods
This fast, entertaining adventure -- directed by and starring the world's number one action superstar, Jackie Chan (RUSH HOUR, OPERATION CONDOR, SUPERCOP) -- is the must-see "prequel" to the crowd-pleasing hit OPERATION CONDOR! Jackie is back and hotter than ever as a hard-hitting fortune hunter whose ex-girlfriend is kidnapped and held for ransom by an evil cult! Then things really kick into high gear when her fiance, an old friend of Jackie's, turns to him for help in finding and delivering the kidnappers' lone demand: the priceless Armour Of The Gods! Performing his own death-defying stunts, there's no stopping Jackie as he -- with the help of a sexy woman and a hilarious sidekick -- attacks his mission with a lethal mix of pulse-pounding action and sidesplitting humor!When martial arts wizard Jackie Chan is in top form, no movie star on earth is more fun to watch. Armour of God never achieves the beautiful, smooth flow of continuous movement that distinguishes Project A--Part 2. In fact, it feels like a botched international coproduction, short on common sense and plot momentum, long on Eastern European scenery and huggermugger intrigue. The wispy premise is the first danger sign: all the segments of an ancient suit of armor have to be located and reassembled, so that the suit can be used to pay the ransom on a kidnapped girl--Jackie's old flame. (He competes for her affections with a chum played by heartthrob pop star Alan Tam.) The creepy Aryan bad guys are hiding out in a mountain retreat in Yugoslavia, which is stormed with gusto. A long second-act interlude of door-slamming bedroom farce is a dreary drag, but there's some good body-slamming action toward the end--especially when Jackie squares off with a trio of black female body builders in S/M leather. With the dashing Rosamund Kwan (the glamorous revolutionary of Project A) as Laura Lai. --David Chute
