Editorial Review:
Years before he became a genuine Hollywood action star in Rush Hour, Jackie Chan played a daredevil secret agent out to recover a lost cache of Nazi gold, in this globe-trotting 1990 action comedy--with a trio of beautiful women at his side (one Chinese, one Japanese, and one German) and a stereotyped bumbling Arab terrorist hot on his heels. Condor is still one of the most expensive Hong Kong movies ever made, and looks it: there are actual Spanish castles and huge vistas of North African desert sand. (Months later, several planeloads of the stuff were shipped back to Hong Kong for some pick-up shots). A full-size set depicting an underground German wind tunnel was constructed on a Hong Kong sound stage. But there's also an extended car-and-motorcycle chase that employs an obvious stunt double, and episodes of bawdy farce (trimmed for the U.S. release) that feel like padding. Chan was already 36 when he directed this superstar vehicle, and he'd sensibly decided to soft-peddle the hard action stunt work---until the finale, that is, an all-out head-kicking kung-fu battle that moves back and forth across huge seesawing slabs of clockwork machinery. Chan seems to be working harder than ever in other areas, too; he's never given a more energetic or engaging comic performance. For pure mind-boggling entertainment value, the peak Jackie experiences are still Project A Part II, and the original Police Story and its semi-sequel, Supercop, in which Chan costarred with Tomorrow Never Dies Bond girl Michelle Yeoh. --David Chute

Operation Condor [Region 2] Reviews:
One of jackie chan's best
2009-10-30 - Jackie chan is talented, i love watching him fight in this movie! Its very entertaining and fun.....i recommend.

Awesome classic!
2008-06-24 - I watched this movie as a child, loved it, and today it stands as one of Chan's finest. I love Chinese humor, it's really hilarious! Jackie is full of portraying a humorous, yet serious role. He is a great lead role here, with two or three excellent sidekicks. Embarking on hunt for treasure was never this fun!

A great movie, but a very poor DVD
2008-05-16 - Jackie Chan's hugely enjoyable romp Operation Condor - Armour of God 2 sees him on the trail of Nazi gold in the desert in a plot that's no more than an excuse for several spectacular stunts - and this contains some of Chan's most impressive stuntwork. His most expensive HK picture, it's also one of his most enjoyable in its uncut version, but sadly this Miramax/Dimension version has typically cut 14 minutes from the Hong Kong version (the US theatrical version actually cut 26 minutes!). It ain't art, but it is fun, and some of the stunts in the massive underground set have to be seen to be disbelieved.

Unfortunately, this a disappointing DVD all round. It's not just that UK label Hong Kong Legends' excellent Hong Kong DVDs have raised the bar in terms of extras and picture quality, this Dimension release is the dubbed and heavily edited US cut. The UK PAL release is uncut, but sadly dubbed and not the best of transfers. A budget title in every sense of the word, you're much better off sticking to the Hong Kong releases.

It's on my list of BEST ACTION COMEDIES of ALL TIMES
2008-03-07 - This movie is on my list of BEST ACTION COMEDIES of ALL TIMES. The fighting scenes are excellent. It also has a lot of humour. It makes me laugh again and again.

If you want to enjoy it, please suspens your logic while watching it.

I own it.

Great movie and and good dvd for the price
2007-01-27 - I think it is unfair for the anti-dubbing purists to give this dvd a low ratings simply because it is a dubbed version. If you don't like dubbing, nobody is forcing you to buy this. IMHO, there is good dubbing and bad dubbing, and the dubbing on this movie is actually quite good.

Unfortunately, this dvd doesn't have any special features. However, it is a nice true widescreen presentation.

The movie has lots of humor, action, great stunts, fantastic fights, pretty girls, interesting locations. It also has one of the best chase scenes I've ever seen.

This is supposed to be a sequel to Armour of God, but it stands on it's own, and I'd have to say I thought it was the better of the two. One I'll definitely enjoy watching again.
