More Fun than I'd Expected
1 February 2021
It looked like it was going to be a silly action comedy along the lines of Rush Hour and Shanghai Noon - and it was - and enjoyable as they all are, they are still silly - but there was an added element to the fun here because of all the locations you travel through. Jackie Chan starts out in Hong Kong and Johnny Knoxville starts out in Macau and is kidnapped to Russia. Chan hunts him down for reasons relevant to his story arc. And then they run from a Russian gang through Russia, then Mongolia, then China, all the while we get an interesting look at the life of the locals, their customs, and their festivals, which was a TON of fun. The side characters, especially the members of the Russian gang and the Hong Kong gang were actually quite fun and memorable. So yeah, better than I expected!
