Hidden Strike

Now I am both a Jackie Chan fan and John Cena fan, so naturally I had to see it. The first thing that striked me was the sheer number of companies that were in association with making this movie. I mean it was no Lawrence of Arabia, or Avatar or anything huge like that, so why so many particpants? Were they that short of cash and resources?

Anyway both the leads in their own right are superb comedy/action movie stars. Senn both of them in many movies. But unfortunately in this movie I did not see the usual click or bonding that Jackie makes with other Hollywood names he has starred with.

In most part they both looked uncomfortable and just following the script. The action and stunt sequences were very good. And I disagree with one contributor saying the CGI was poor. I have seen a lot of movies where the CGi has been comically terrible, this was not one of them.

Anyway I still enjoyed the movie, and hats really off to Jackie for still doing what he loves and does best at his age! Let's see if Tom Cruise can keep it up when he's Jackie's age and do breathtaking stunts in the Mission Impossible movies.
