About
You’ll likely enjoy this if you want a loud, fast, silly action-comedy with nonstop chases and fights, especially if you liked Double Team; Not for you if you need a clear, grounded story and consistent humor.
Pros: energetic action set pieces; offbeat Hong Kong vibe; goofy buddy banter | Cons: confusing messy plot; uneven comedy; cheap-looking explosions
