Horrible, horrible movie

You would think that taking a comic book, adding an acclaimed actor and another bankable comedic actor, would bring results. What went wrong? This movie appears as if it were written and directed by someone whom isn't familiar with American dialog or American culture. A street gang ruled by a pretty boy with an english accent? Huh? A femme fatale that looks like a 13 year old boy? A pick-pocket with a hero complex? This film reminded me of Rumble in the Bronx in the sense that it felt like it was made by foreigners for the appeal to foreigners. I kept looking for the billboards written in Chinese. Am I wrong or was the overall feel of this movie awkward?

No i have to agree with what you said. It was weird, things didn't make sense either kar still had his name in the end. Why did the german Soldier have to get back into his uniform. just overall alright to watch to kill some time.

Ok i agree with what your saying, but i think this is one of the best films i have seen, not because of the wrong storyline, but because of the humour n kung foo!!!

I liked this movie alot and there were some things i did not understand but the movie as a whole was vary good. The movie was a little off but it was a fantasy movie it isn't supost to be taken suryasly by anyone. plus the guy could fly you can not tell me that was not interesting.

It was so bad I felt sick to my stomach and pooed blood for a week. Crap acting, crap action, and sub standard special FX. Jesus man, jesus god in heaven it sucked willies...
