Operation Condor

DIRECTED BY: Jackie Chan

REVIEWED: 08-04-97

Jackie Chan, the bouncy, cartoon-like genius of Hong Kong action flicks, is back to defend the honor of the free world. He's been sent on a mission by the United Nations to uncover a cleverly guarded cache of Nazi gold. No, it's not in a numbered Swiss bank account, it's in the middle of the Sudan (I think), surrounded by angry natives, foxy young girls and bad-tempered henchmen. Every few minutes Chan must fight these fellows; he's quite good-natured about this, and though violence abounds no one seems to ever really get hurt. The dialogue is badly dubbed into English but the stunts are terrific, though after a while the shotgun karate kicks get a little mind-numbing. But isn't that what it's all about?
