Could be renamed "Jackie Takes A Severe Beating"..., 20 July 2000
7/10
Author: Spiro Agnew (clurge@home.com) from Niagara Falls, Canada

Here we have one of the few flicks where Jackie Chan, our hero, spends more time taking a lickin' from everyone else, than he does giving it out. Jackie is stabbed, poked, choked, burned, scalded, sliced, whacked, skewered, and school boy'd in just about every scene of the film. It makes for plenty of action, don't get me wrong, but his only triumph comes at the end so that we can leave happy. I realize that Chan is supposed to represent the man who loses everything (house, family, friends, pregnant lover, etc.) but the guy can't even defeat a woman with super-human abilities?? Movies have taught me that Jackie can overcome ANY disadvantage and kick some tail...but apparently not here. Jackie spends more time on screen as a bed-ridden cripple than fighting the powers of evil. Reminds me of a story where a boy wants to move away from his parents because they beat him. When asked where he wants to go live he responds, "I want to live with Jackie Chan's character from 'To Kill With Intrigue', because he doesn't beat anybody!".
