Armour of God (1986)
Reviewed by: Chungking_Cash on 2007-02-22
Jackie Chan stars as Asian Hawk a 007/Indiana Jones hybrid in "Armour of God" the film that brought Chan closer to death than he's ever been when a seemingly routine stunt in Yugoslavia resulted in a head-first crash from a tree branch onto a jagged rock below. Despite undergoing emergency brain surgery and weeks of recovery that put the production on ice Chan is generally in top form here. Unfortunately, his co-stars (Alan Tam, Rosamund Kwan, and former Miss Spain Lola Forner) leave a lot to desire. Eric Tsang, the film's first director, walked due to the lull created by Chan's injury to pursue a pair of Cinema City pictures.
