Okay, so the movie is a dopey Wizard Of Oz ripoff, who cares? Jackie & Jet make this one glow, and some of the dialogue is truly hi-larious.
Plus: Jackie doing Drunken Boxing again!!!

If you own a Jackie or Jet flick, you won't be disappointed (can you say Yuen Woo Ping?).

The bare bones edition is still $16.99 at Bestbuy, $22.99 for the 2 disc- I just wanted the flick.

The match-up fans have been dying for:
Jackie Chan
vs
Jet Li

The result:
Bwah-ha-ha-ha!

Not a bad film at all. The combat sequences were outstanding, and the wire work was beautiful.

Following the Wooz analogy, who was the white haired girl in his 'Real' life?

I don't know- we didn't see enough of his real life to find out... or more probably it's just a lazy ripoff.

Jackie's The Myth disappointed me so, I was thrilled to see this one be just balls out FUN!!!

And Jet smiling a lot is a good thing.

Yeah, Jet was having way too much fun.

And the hair, sideburns, and gold makeup made him look like a Talaxian, which made it even funnier. The bad guys are getting their butts kicked by Neelix!

We enjoyed it. The kids thought it was fun.
