I have nothing against Hong Kong cinema but don't watch very much of it, so I guess it went over my head that, as some have said, this was just a vehicle for a couple of idols.
I thought it was absolutely hilarious, really silly, and I didn't expect Jackie Chan to put in an appearance so I was in stitches when he showed up! As others have said, it's not to be taken seriously. Watch it as a comedy and you'll not be disappointed!
