While "Drunken Master II" is not the "Citizen Kane" of Hong Kong cinema or the "Casablanca" of the martial arts subgenre or even Jackie Chan's best film for that matter -- it's an unequivocal display of Chan's patent comedic gung fu. Dissimilar to other Jackie Chan films of this period "Drunken Master II" allows co-star Anita Mui to come within reach of upstaging the film's narcissistic star.
