While some of the movie doesn't really work, spme of the movie really does! Everything that works in the movie involves Jackie Chan.A museum piece of early Kung Fu Action/Comedy, showcasing how good Chan is and was, that also illustrates how much the U.S. wasn't quite sure who Chan would become.Culminating in the advertised big brawl in the streets of Battle Creek Texas, join the Nighthawks as they discuss this oft overlooked english language entry in Chan's filmography.
