| CineVueChristopher MachellThe unparallelled balletic skill of Chan and his co-stars is simply astonishing. |
| Eye for FilmJennie KermodeMartial arts genius aside, it's the film's warm-heartedness that has really given it its staying power, charming generation after generation of fans. This is a simple story told well, and it gets results. |
| Vue Weekly (Edmonton, Alberta)Brian GibsonWorth watching for the slapstick-like kung fu Chan made famous-it's here martial arts kicked back to Chaplin and Keaton, fusing Eastern acrobatic-fighting with those two Western silent-movie master-clowns (there are also echoes of the Three Stooges). |
| Nitrate OnlineDan LybargerChan's breakthrough film is crudely made, but his own charm and athleticism make this worth a look. |
| Deseret News (Salt Lake City)Chris HicksThis is the film where Chan's confidence in his unique mix of comedy and martial arts, his gracefully choreographed slapstick-kung fu fighting style and natural athleticism, really began to blossom. |
