One of the worst movies either Jackie or Shu Qi have done. Despite what another reviewer posted, the fight scenes are nothing special. Shu Qi, is not "gorgeous" - simply an attractive Chinese woman. As with many Chinese martial arts movies, it is filmed in Cantonese (Jackie's native tongue) and dubbed in Mandarin (Shu Qi's native tongue). Lips move out of sync with the dialog - very sloppy.
The only interesting aspects...as usual Jackie uses his stunt team for minor characters and as extras. See how many familiar faces you can spot between this movie and "Rush Hour". One scene pokes fun at the Black-Sholes equation and its namesakes. Another scene has two Chinese pretend to confuse Shu's boyfriend as Chow Yun Fat, and steal his luggage.
