A Hong Kong nod to the "James Bond" franchise...
21 September 2018
"Agent Mr. Chan" (aka "Dong du te gong") was not an outstanding movie, but still it proved to be entertaining enough for a single viewing. When I found this movie and got the chance to sit down to watch it, of course I did so out of my fondness for the Asian cinema.

There were sporadic moments of fun and enjoyment to be had throughout the course of this movie. But the overall impression was, sadly, a very mediocre end product. Which was a shame, because the movie definitely had potential to be much more than it turned out to be.

"Agent Mr. Chan" is definitely borrowing heavily from the "James Bond" movie franchise, for better or worse. And it is done in a way that I can only believe as done in tribute or homage.

This is the type of movie that once watched it is very likely that you will never returning to watch a second time.
