Summary: 4 Stars
Against a historical backdrop this film examines the interaction between individuals immersed in experiences and conversations elucidating Tolstoy inspired themes of self-sacrifice and self-indulgence, anguish and ecstasy, diplomacy and deception, and religion and perdition, politics and loyalty. It goes deeper in examining the dichotomy of Nietzschian superiority and the didactic Socratic examination of self and the epiphanies of Mazlows self-actualization.This film is sure to spark historical debate for it's ground-breaking interpretations on the genesis of classical literature and the internecine struggles of monarchic society.
Or not
I guess we are not to find deep meaning in this movie, just rip-roaring fun, non-stop action. It is sort of a Wild, Wild West meets Abbott and Costello with the Gung Fu thrown in for fun.
Jackie is Chon Wang ( say it fast) and Owen is Roy O'Bannon of "Roy O'Bannon vs the Mummy" fame. Chons sister is after the Emporers Seal stolen in China by the Emporer's bastard brother after murdering her father.
Sorry folks, I loved it. It was funny and fresh and irreverent. The only part i though was over the top silly was the pillow fight, that should have been in the Deleted Scenes list, other than it it was hilarious.
There was a great chemistry between Owen and Jackie and I look forward to seeing them co-star again.
Plus Fann Wong was absolutely delicious looking.
