Gorgeous: 6 out of 10

Starring: Jackie Chan

Wow, this is a strange one! This is the story of a girl named Boo that finds a message in a bottle from Hong Kong that she thinks is very romantic. So, she travels to Hong Kong where she finds out that the message was from a gay man to his ex boyfriend (?) She then goes out sailing with this guy, and runs into C.N.Chan (guess who) who is a wealthy businessman. She and Jackie fall in love and she learns about Howie, CN’s rival who always wants to defeat Jackie in some way. Howie sends for a small fighter named Alan to come overseas to defeat and humiliate Chan. Jackie loses the first time… trains… fights again etc.

The plot stinks! That’s all there is to it. The fighting is really good, but sporadic.

I SUGGEST YOU WATCH FOR: In the last scene, The small fighter Alan kicks four times in one jump, wow that guy can really move. He is spectacularly fast throughout and does quite a few pretty impressive things.

THE BEST FIGHT: The end fight scene, Jackie versus Alan, Jackie has trained again and is ready to fight the American fighter. They really go at it for quite a while, very impressive.
