Reviews for The Legend of Drunken Master
Top Critic Chan has always seemed like a silent-screen virtuoso self-catapulted into modern times.

Top Critic The extended fight scenes [have been] justly hailed by aficionados as classics of the genre.

Top Critic
Um dos melhores filmes da carreira de Chan e a comprovação definitiva de que ele é o resultado de uma combinação improvável (e maravilhosa) de Buster Keaton, Gene Kelly e Bruce Lee.

At long last, the American masses will get a glimpse of what Jackie Chan can really do.

I'm extremely unhappy when one of my HK favorites is re-released, re-titled and re-packaged as an English-dubbed Jackie Chan vehicle for American audiences to ostensibly enjoy.

Among the most breathtakingly wonderful acts of physical endurance and grace that I have ever seen.

If you're looking to have a really wild time, this is the film to see.

A spectacularly silly comic epic in which almost every known camera trick, stunt and fight choreography known to the genre is squished into one story.

Top Critic Suffers from some of worst problems of the martial arts genre: bad dubbing, bad soundtrack, chaotic plot, no character development ... but it has great fights and stunts.

The Legend of Drunken Master is pure entertainment and proves that Jackie Chan is indeed a cinematic icon.

Beats Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon at its own game of high-flying huzzah, and with relative ease.
03/19/01
There can be little doubt that Drunken Master 2 is one of the greatest martial arts films ever made.
02/13/01
If you've never seen a martial arts movie, this is the one to start with.

This imported and dubbed Jackie Chan fossil might be a kick for diehard fans, but most will be left feeling high and dry.
