Armour of God 2: Operation Condor
The Jackie Chan Experience
June 23 - 27, 2013
Asian Hawk’s quest for a cache of Nazi gold results in a succession of gigantic set pieces and intricate action, including one of cinema’s great car chases, the destruction of an entire hotel, and a final battle in a wind tunnel.
One of Hong Kong’s great out-of-control productions, Armour Of God 2 went way over budget and way over schedule as Chan and company hopped around the globe indulging Chan’s desire to top himself. Which he does. The result is the biggest and most complex Jackie Chan movie to date, with Asian Hawk’s quest for a cache of Nazi gold resulting in a succession of giagntic setpieces and intricate action, including one of cinema’s great car chases, the destruction of an entire hotel, and a final battle in a wind tunnel. This is the kind of movie that has you goggle-eyed from start to finish.
