Storyline

After a giant dinosaur skull is stolen, the head of the Chinese secret police decides to assign the case to the force's most incompetent reject: a rural butcher who stands around all day drinking martinis (shaken, not stirred). With a trunkload of insanely useless gadgets and a contact who constantly tries to kill him, the young agent must locate the skull and find out just what is going on here.

Very good Spoof movie
25 May 2011 | by (India) – See all my reviews

Beijing with Love is very good spoof of Bond movies with references to other movies like Star Wars and Terminator thrown in.

As the movie started I though I was going to be disappointed as the action scenes were cheesy. But the movie hugely improves when Stephen Chow appears on the screen. He single-handedly carries the whole movie on his shoulders.

From Beijing with Love is not as good as Chow's other movies like Kung Fu Hustle and Shaolin Soccer. But it is still very entertaining and definitely much better than all the lame spoofs coming out of Hollywood now days featuring Carmen Electra.
