Promising Hong Kong spoof, but it fizzles out halfway through. Some funny redundant gadgets, and John Woo spoofage, but never goes anywhere. Jul 14, 2003 | Rating: 2/5

James Bond spoof that is much more bloody than amusing. Jul 26, 2002 | Rating: 1/5

Ah yes, the good ol Hong Kong "throw everyting into the mix" approach of filmaking that we don't see that often these days. One second there is a joke about spy gadgets, then there's a little kid seeing his dad dying infront of him. This is clearly a cultural shock for many in the west, for the HK aficionado this was the bread and butter back in those days. Now, "From Beijing" still shows a Stephen Chow polishing his craft, still trying to get the right flow, so this one is not as strong as his following work. Still fun to watch, even with all the verbal comedy lost in translation.

This is one of the funniest of Stephen Chow movies. Everytime I watch it, I would find something new to laugh about (5x already). But it can make you weep at some point, too.
Hillarious parody of the James Bond films. Actually I'll take this film and For Your Height Only over any Bond film anytime.
