 |  |  |  |  This movie is so slow, but there is a nice ending to wait for. Not so bad! | | AGREE? | READER COMMENTS | AUTHOR | | N | The film went over-budget and it resulted in a very zany story & some bad action sequences. The film is not good just because the last 10 minutes is exciting. For a reviewer 2 rate a movie like this w/ 3 stars is inaccurate & a disgrace 2 real true fans | Ashley | | N | The movie was all right- it has a lot of goofiness to it, but just beacuse the ending delivers does not mean to give it 3 stars- You rate funny. | Rambo part 5 please | | Y | The ending is very good for 3 stars. | Black Belt Ninja | | N | The whole movie was crazy-bad, a last action scene does not save a movie for being 3 stars | KungfuManiac | | Y | I agree with you on this. My Lucky Stars is a mixed bag of peanuts. It has a lot of zany & odd moments but the fights at the end saved it from being trash. I agree it's not so bad at all. | JV47842 |

 |  |  |  | | Muscles (Jackie) and Ricky (Biao) are cops who are out to catch a bent cop who could lead them to a major criminal in Japan. Ricky is captured and Muscles goes into hiding. Their inspector recruits the help of Fastbuck (Sammo) and he puts together the old orphanage gang, a bunch of small time criminals who aren't very tough because they know very little kung fu. They are required to go undercover and help their ex friend Muscles catch the notorious criminal. A fast paced action comedy with many hilarious situations and although the emphasis is not Jackie it still contains many good fight scenes. | | LOG IN TO COMMENT ON THIS REVIEW! |

 |  |  |  | | Original entry in the "Lucky Stars" series of comedies (with an all-star cast) about a group of misfits who grew up together in the same orphanage with each other and future cop Jackie Chan. They grow up to be good-hearted, semi-bungling thieves who often end up in some combination of being on the run and helping Chan to catch the real "bad" bad guys. Notable for the first appearance of Michiko Nishiwaki (including a fight scene with Sibelle Hu) in an HK movie. Some great action/fight sequences, featuring director Sammo Hung, Yuen Biao, and Jackie Chan, but they are too few and far between, unless you happen to really enjoy these films' particular brand of humor. | | LOG IN TO COMMENT ON THIS REVIEW! |

| Well, Mates, this is a bit of a send up tribute to the three stooges meet the Bowery gang. An interesting blend of slapstick, stunts, bungling good guys, a fierce Japanese babe-with-attitude and, oh yes, even a plug for our favorite femme fatale Brigitte Lin (who's name appear as does a photo of her being horded by the prison gang). This is the first works for two actresses: Sibelle Hu and the Japanese body building champion, Michiko Nishiwaki. Sibelle plays the poor gal in charge of Sammo's misfit gang sent to assist Jackie Chan in helping another cop escape the clutches of a Japanese gang. As for Michiko, she gets to show more than her kimono in this one and sends poor Sibelle slamming into the wall. As a side note Michiko said her final encounter with Sammo was particularly tough because she had to fall straight back, stiff as a board and suffered bumps on her head after several takes. Babes aside there is a terrific battle when Jackie enters a Japanese amusement park horror house and goes toe to toe with the bad guys. Sammo does some incredible fight scenes as well. The bit where Sammo's group strike kung-fu poses to scare off the villains is a hoot! There are slow spots but overall this is an enjoyable ride. I had fun picking out all the homages to the Stooges. I give this a thumbs up. |
