While Jackie Chan is famous, he is not known for quality cinema. That said, this is by far the worst of his movies that I have had the bad luck of watching. The production value, acting, dialogues, narrative are all so poor that you cannot imagine that people paid to watch this.
Disha Patani, who has pretty much no experience is mostly used as a prop, the insertion of Chinese government propaganda just makes all this in very poor taste.
