YesAsia Editorial Description

International action star Jackie Chan teams up with late singer Anita Mui to present an extravagant action comedy titled The Canton Godfather. Jackie received a Best Actor nomination at the 9th Hong Kong Film Awards, and with the help of his team, his top-notch martial arts won the Best Action Choreography award. He demonstrated the complexity of Hong Kong action cinema with plenty of innovative fighting scenes in The Canton Godfather. Charismatic singer Anita Mui, in this rare collaboration with Jackie Chan, plays a nightclub singer and spices up the movie with splendid dancing and enchanting songs. This film will surely amuse the audience as much as now it did in 1989.

Jackie Chan plays a country boy who has just arrived in a big city in the 1930s. Everything starts to change after he buys flowers from Lady Rose (Gua Ah Lei). With his superb fighting skills, he becomes a triad leader in a miraculously short period. He then opens a nightclub and grooms a talented girl (Anita Mui) into a superstar. The two fall in love with each other and help Lady Rose with her daughter (Gloria Yip) to marry a millionaire. Everything just happens like a miracle!

A Rose In JC's movie career Customer Review Rated Bad 10 - 10 out of 10
I watched this movie years ago and fell in love with it. Jackie wanted to make a movie with the old Hollywood feel, beautiful sets and great camera angles. Couldn't go wrong with Anita Mui playing his girlfriend (who also sings and dance at his nightclub), Bill Tung is a trickster turned good friend, cameo appearances with Mars and Richard Ng.

It's a feel-good movie about a country boy arriving in Hong Kong, tricked of his last dollars and unknowingly saved a mob boss which resulted in him being appointed the new head. Things progress as he played along with strong emphasis on non-violance (??) and eventually earned the respect of the "family". However, there's always one bad egg (played by Loh Lieh) but through clever intervention, was eventually won over too. Very intricate fighting choreography at the cafe made to look easy .

The other side plot is playing Mr Compassion when he agreed to help a flower lady cause her daughter is going to marry a millionaire's son. Unbeknown to her daughter (whom mum has sent overseas to study and selling flowers to support her) , mum has been telling fibs about her social status and Anita came up with a rescue plan to make mum look good. Jackie, Anita and Bill had to pull out all stops and put their thinking caps on when millionaire arrived ! Result? ...... see for yourself.

Best story of JC movies Customer Review Rated Bad 9 - 9 out of 10
This was probably the most interesting, concisely executed storylines of any Jackie Chan movies. Topped off with his great stunts & fight sequences as well as a thoroughly enjoyable theme song, I am satisfied after each viewing. Experiencing how the story unfolds then is wrapped up so neatly, gives you such a feeling of closure, it is refreshing. An action "feel good" movie with all the traditional characters that are a staple in a Jackie Chan production.

Daniel's rating: Worth the buy Customer Review Rated Bad 8 - 8 out of 10
This is one of my personal favorite films from Jackie Chan. It has great direction, fun acting, and exciting fight coreography. This is one of his best films when he was in his prime. Just after Project A-2 and Police Story, this is very original and a very satisfying experience. Anita Mui is also fun as Jackie's girlfriend, and Bill Tong gives one of his embarassingly humorous performances.

As for this Fortune Star remastered DVD, it is great.
I own the old Media Asia DVD and the Fortune Star DVD features a better and cleaner print of the film. It is shown in it's correct aspect ratio and it features the original mono track as well as a newly remixed DTS track. It also has cut Taiwan theatrical scenes as a special feature. Although there should be more extras such as; an audio commentary from anyone involved from the film, and/or a making of- featurette.

It is still a must buy for those JC fans.

A must buy for all JC fans Customer Review Rated Bad 10 - 10 out of 10
If you're a die-hard Jackie Chan fan than you just have to buy this film as it has all the elements(action,comedy,stunts) in it that has made Jackie Chan a housewhole name. This film also contains about a dozen cameo's of popular celebs at that time.
