Lots of slapstick and not a lot of plot.
A few good fight scenes save this from total hell. The romance just doesn't work. It's not cute or funny. Check out Miracles for the real deal. This is barely watchable.
With several fight scenes - the two with the agile Allan are mini-classics and Jackie's one with baseball bats is highly inventive.

The other side of Jackie - a romantic dramatic side - but alright - the fight scenes with the kick boxer is really GOOD! (the guy is actually one of Jackies stuntmen)
