A great all round martial arts-action movie meant for the complete family. It contains bloodless fighting scenes. A great entertainer.

The greatest part was for my kids to see Jackie Chan in action with Jet Li. They know Jackie Chan from the cartoons. They never heard of Jet Li but I am sure he made a good impression on them too. There are not many martial art movies that are this tame. In the end good triumphs over evil. The only thing I missed was there were no outtakes while the credits rolled at the end.

I know many out there liked "Karate Kid", to those people this is a perfect movie. But for a Matial Arts connoisseur like myself, who comes from the Shaw Brothers Era, this movie was terrible. I've been watching these types of movies since the 70's. I've seen the early works of both, Mr. Chan and Mr. Li...this was by far a HUGE disappointment. With Two Legends this movie didn't need any gimics...and the young boy was a GIMIC and a Mistake. Why would a young white male be living in chinatown and be "THE ONE", who must deliver the staff? Not realistic at all. (I'm black and would have felt the same had he been black male). Who would have thought that two legends+ great director+ great fight scene choreographer would = a bad movie...WOW.

Don't go looking for an extraordinary plot, but the fight scenes are great. The places that the movie is filmed in are beautiful, I just love rural china. But I do agree that the boy was not very good, and he didn't look the part at all. But from a perspective that the actors make the movie, I would think that Jackie Chan and Jet Li made up for it. A very fun movie. It wasn't as good as I thought it would be, but it was still a lot of fun.
