My Lucky Stars

I swear this is the last of the Lucky Stars movies I will watch. For the first ten minutes I thought that this one was going to be the one. The opens with Jackie Chan action stunt work and I thought, “Finally, they are going to tie the two stories together in a meaningful, action-packed way!” Nope. Action ends and it’s back to an hour of pervert antics as Sammo and crew are hired to find Jackie with, surprise surprise, a sexy female partner who all the middle aged dudes want to grope. I’ll admit there was one laugh-out-loud joke involving ordering Japanese food, but it was obviously a live-action retelling of one of Blanche Knott’s Truly Tasteless Jokes. Like every other entry in this series, it ends with some decent fight sequences but it’s too little, too late.
