Make me laugh, it won’t work if you don’t give 5 points

For commercial films, my standard is that good-looking and fun are enough.

This film, starring Jackie Chan, added a Chinese story line in order to highlight the role, which is not very obtrusive.

What is rare is that the characters of Passepartout played by Fogg and Jackie Chan in the film are bright, and the relationship between the two people has changed from master and servant to good friends who take risks together.

Verne's work itself can be regarded as exotic and fantasy in his time, but today, what kind of deep impression can the faithful original work give people? Traveling around the earth in eighty days is nothing at all.

So the whole movie is more humorous, and the taste of funny is very high.

At the Impressionist Art Exhibition in Paris, the hero commended the heroine for her high level of painting, which was different from other amateurs. Van Gogh, who was standing next to the masterpiece "Starry Night," was shot.

In the fight in the scene of the Statue of Liberty waiting to be assembled in New York, a bad guy was knocked over and got his legs stuck in the nostrils of the statue.

There is also Turkish Prince Schwarzenegger... are all highlights.

The whole film laughs from start to finish, it won't work if you don't give it 5 points.

    Long brother's big failure. This kind of subject matter is suitable for series, but not for film.

    I remember that this movie seems to be quite gorgeous. Jackie Chan is usually not a good end to a blockbuster. Only the typical Hong Kong style Jackie Chan is more easily accepted...
