I stumbled on this while wasting my time on youtube:

Wheels on Meals, I wonder why I never watched or even heard about this movie, has someone seen it?

Just finished Wheels on Meals, it's amazing and also incredibly cheesy, I happen to know Barcelona pretty well and seeing it's locations on a Hong Kong Kung Fu movie was weird as hell. The final fight of Jackie Chan is pretty crazy, really entertaining movie :allears:

I've been on a crazy movie frenzy this last week, I've watched in rapid succession Dragons forever, Police history, Project A and Snake in the eagles shadow, among others.

Of all of this, Project A is in my opinion the best, it has a constant, frenetic pacing (without dropping in the middle of the movie), decent soundtrack, decent acting, Sammo and Yuen Biao being funny without being too much hammy or awkward (looking at you, Dragons Forever) and a not too bad plot. The action is really good, with an incredible stunt (that clock homage to Safety Last!) and the entire bicycle chase is really amusing. The only drawback is it doesn't have a memorable villain/fight like Benny Urquidez in Wheels on Meals/Dragons Forever.

Easily my new favorite Jackie Chan movie :allears:

Project A is really good and has a lot of commedy, it's only flaw is a week villain.

Is Project A the one with the bicycle chase? That one owns.

Yep, Project A is really really good, the only thing it lacks is a good villain for the final fight.

Dragons Forever is fun, but all the bad romantic comedy in the middle of the movie drags the pace down in my opinion. Great final fight too, just slightly less great than in Wheels on Meals.

The thread may be dead, but it's still great.

Recently I came across the OST of Wheels on Meals and it's actually quite good, I love how it alternates between epic and corny songs.
