5.0 out of 5 stars The Three Stooges on overdrive, 7 Jun 2006

By	Tezza (Sunny South of England) - See all my reviews

Surely there are no other three actors you could put together in a physical film, that would have such chemistry and timing as this trio. This is great stuff. Unlike some of the JC films of the eighties, you don't feel the need to fast forward the comedy scenes as it works quite well in a jolly sort of way - due to Jackie, Sammo & Yuen Biao's performance. But that said, it's the martial arts action that stands out as usual - every fight scene in "Dragons" is absoloutely blinding. And there are plenty of them to boot. Favourites to watch for are the boat scene where JC takes the female lawyer to lunch then finds himself fighting with a dozen or so henchmen while she's in the toilet (I know I know -those white socks), any of the scuffles between Jackie, Sammo and Yuen Biao peppered throughout the movie and pretty much the entire final reel where JC & YB take on loads and loads of bad guys in a breath-taking display of top class choreography, before a one-on-one between Jackie and Benny The Jet Urquidez (from Wheels on Meals - if you've seen it). Directed by Sammo Hung, rather than JC, a huge amount of time is given to fabulous hand to hand combat instead of big elaboate stunts. Plus, on the special features there is a fine selection of out-takes which did not appear as part of the original movie. Check out Bey Logan's commentary as well - his stories and insights are spot on as usual. Even though the film was allegedly made in a rush for Chinese New Year, this is a cracking example of Hong Kong action at it's peak!

5.0 out of 5 stars The 'Three Dragons' at their best, 28 Mar 2007

By	Mr. D. Woods "dwoods92" - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This is one of the finest Chan/ Hung/ Biao films to have been made and features these three martial artists at the top of their game. I'm a big fan of the 'Three Dragon' franchise and I don't think you'll see fighters of this class all in one film any time soon. As always, you have to be a fan of this genre to get the most out of it but 'Dragons Forever' should prove a winner among the martial art nuts (like me!) out there.

The fight scenes are frenetic, yet fabulously choreographed so you don't miss a single karate chop. Sammo Hung's nifty direction works wonders here, exploiting the considerable talents of the stars to their full potential. The physical humour works perfectly, particularly when Jackie, Sammo and Yuen start laying into each other in Jackie's flat. And then there's the finale, as the trio take on a hilarious cigar-chomping baddie- I nearly cried with laughter at this bit!

I'd put this up with 'Project A' as a classic 'Three Dragons'. It's great fun, full of action and a worthy addition to a collector's shelf.

4.0 out of 5 stars A Happy (Chinese) New Year romp!, 7 Feb 2007

By	Trevor Willsmer (London, England) - See all my reviews (TOP 50 REVIEWER)

Dragons Forever is a typical Chinese New Year movie with Jackie Chan, Sammo Hung and Yuen Biao delivering the required mix of comedy and action in a formulaic, forgettably plotted but highly enjoyable number that showcases them at the height of their powers and agility amid much Three Stooges style tomfoolery. A villain who looks like Gary Numan after particularly bad plastic surgery and some dubious sexual politics make it look its age (vintage 1988), and it does have the single most obvious piece of stunt doubling ever for Chan (a high kick repeated from two different angles, and all too clearly looking like someone completely different each take), but it's infectiously enjoyable enough to let that slide.
