Movie Reviews of Wheels on Meals
Movie Review: A must see if you are a Jackie Chan or Yuen Biao fan
Summary: 5 Stars
Jackie Chan, Sammo Hung, and Yuen Biao.... if you are a fan of their style of Martial Arts movies, then this is a must see film, if only for for the final fight scenes alone. Sammo Hung does not use his full abilities in this movie. Jackie Chan and Yuen Biao are the featured artists in this collaboration. Sammo's character is used more in moving the story along than in action.
From the opening training sequence (showcasing the speed of Chan and Yuen) to the short fight against the motorcycle gang in the Square to a few more smaller fights scattered throughout the film, it all culminates in a fantastic fight sequence at the end. Jackie Chan's biography lists this as his best fight on film. He and Benny "the Jet" really deliver a hard hitting, fast paced fight. Yuen Biao's chase/fight is to me, as entertaining and awe inspiring, if you enjoy acrobatics (but much different than your normal fight scene).
For a martial arts film the story is not too bad either. As the Three Brothers help a young Spanish woman out of some difficult situations.
If you enjoy this movie you may also want to see "Dragons Forever." Another collaboration of the Three Brothers. It has a rematch of the fight scene between Jackie Chan and Benny "the Jet." It also has Yuen Wah in a very entertaining role.
Summary of Wheels on Meals
The legendary "Three Brothers" of Hong Kong Cinema co-star in Wheels On Meals, a deliriously entertaining action-comedy that qualifies as essential Hong Kong Cinema! Thomas (Jackie Chan) and David (Yuen Biao) are a couple of kung-fu fighting friends who run a fast food truck in sunny Spain. But when a beautiful pickpocket named Sylvia (former Miss Spain Lola Forner) runs off with their money, the buddies are drawn into a wild and wacky adventure! Various shady individuals are after Sylvia, including private investigator Moby (Sammo Hung), a former friend of Thomas and David's, who's working for unknown individuals. But when Sylvia's life is put in danger, the three friends join together to do what they do best: fight, fight and fight some more! Wheels On Meals provides hard-hitting action and lots of laughs courtesy of the unbeatable trio of Jackie Chan, Sammo Hung, and Yuen Biao, whose other collaborations like Project A and Dragons Forever rank as some of the most enjoyable Hong Kong movies ever made! Cast: Sammo Hung Kam-Bo, Yuen Biao, Jackie Chan, Lola Forner, Benny Urquidez, Keith Vitali, Paul Chang Chung, Richard Ng Yiu-Hon, John Shum Kin-Fun.
