Trivia
One of the characters in the Street Fighter II: The World Warrior (1991) game is named E. Honda. Since Jackie Chan is a spokesman for Mitsubishi, they decided to change the characters name to E. Honde, just so the competitor's name wasn't mentioned. See more »Goofs

Crazy Credits
Outtakes from the film are shown during the closing credits. See more »Alternate Versions
The song-and-dance sequence which made references to Vanilla Ice, MC Hammer and The New Kids on the Block was not subtitled on the FOX DVD. The UK dubbed version of the film cut the sequence out completely, confusing the viewer in regards to why the singers show up later in the film. See more »Frequently Asked Questions

An attempt to create a live Anime comes up short due to careless handling but the movie delivers on a couple of action sequences which will be one of the best of all time in the comedy/martial arts genre particularly Chan's fight scenes and the hilarious live re-creation of the Street Fighter video game!Chan is very game in his perfomance but the director just tries too hard to get comical/cartoonish behaviour.The director could have done much better with much less overkill and better soundtrack.The musical number also was torture and that one I recommend you fast forward.This movie is only for die hard Chan fans and big martial arts/comedy fans who know both Anime and Hong Kong style humor......
