Product Description
The Asian Hawk (Jackie Chan) comes to Europe in search of the magical 'Armour of God' (relics of Crusaders' armour), hoping to use it as bait in order to rescue his girlfriend from a cult. His search takes him all over Europe with his sidekick (Alan Tam) and, inevitably, into various violent confrontations. Jackie Chan also directed the film and performed all his own stunts.

Format:DVD
This film is great, jackie chan is on top form with great fighting, amazing stunts and jackie chan's own brand of hilarious comedy. This is the film where jackie chan nearly died, and this is shown in the out takes at the end. If you have never seen a jackie chan film before this is an excellent place to start.

Without a shadow of a doubt, Armour of God is a superlative example of what Chan movies should be. Non-stop action followed by amazing stunts cap off this flick. You're not a Chan fan unless you watch this.Jackie sets out on this adventure with his two companions, hoping to save the life of his former girlfriend Laura. Battling evil monks, the elements and not to mention the amazon women, Jackie finally captures the mantle of being Asia's number 1 star. A must see movie if you are a fan of his!

Format:DVD
This DVD has very good picture quality and some nice bonus extras eg. an interview with Willie Chan, his manager who tells about the accident which almost killed Jackie in this film. I have seen this AOG both on video and VCD and am glad the whole film (with both Chinese and English audio options) is included. The video dubbed version I have seen deleted some of the scenes. This DVD film is classic Jackie Chan. Broad humour (nothing subtle about Chinese comedy!), average acting with a minimal plot but GREAT action. Jackie and Alan Tam make a great comedy duo and Alan Tam is surprisingly funny. He also has a great voice. The only disappointment in the film was that Jackie didn't sing. I was hoping he would sing "High Upon High" which was the closing song on the video dubbed version. Anyway, very enjoyable and well worth the buy. One to watch again!

To be fair I think I've been watching a different DVD to many of the other 'afficionadoes' who've rated Armour of God here. I thought it was incredible. Read more

What's all the fuss about?
This is the most boring JC film ever. I mean it, it's BORING. It contains ONE fight scene, and that's in the very end of the film. Read more
