Reviews for The Legend of Drunken Master
Anita Mui all but pulls a heist herself in every scene she's in, but make no mistake. This is Chan's movie, and he holds his own, whether it's using his comedic talents to feign drunkenness or strike a goofy face, or showing off those impressive martial a

While you might not always appreciate the historical aspects of the story, you will definitely find Chan's physical acumen amazing.

A fleet, enjoyable Jackie Chan romp.

Chan has always seemed like a silent-screen virtuoso self-catapulted into modern times.

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

Generally amusing and sometimes positively exhilarating.

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.
09/10/02
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.
03/22/02
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.
11/16/01
Beats Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon at its own game of high-flying huzzah, and with relative ease.
03/19/01
Chan delivers everything that could possibly be expected.
02/27/01
There can be little doubt that Drunken Master 2 is one of the greatest martial arts films ever made.
