Robin B Hood

My wife and eldest son and I watched Robin B Hood last night and into the wee hours of this morning. My son and I were able to watch until the bittersweet end, but my wife reached her alertness limit before the movie ended and had to crash for the night.

This movie stars Jackie Chan. It's not a terrible flick, but it's not great either. It's easily a half an hour too long, but even so, I'll give it 3 Chinese throwing stars out of five, and here's why:

• This movie has a cute girl wearing a big yellow chicken suit.
• There are loads of funky Chinese automobiles cruising around.
• Lots of poopy diapers and a scene featuring a poopy baby butt.
• This film has the proverbial and laughable dubs disease.
• Jackie Chan jumping down from a building, from one air conditioner to another.
• Jackie Chan acting the part of a burglar.
• Chan's character getting royally chewed out by his father.
• Chunks of sweet martial arts action.
• And lastly, this movie made me question Jackie Chan's sexual orientation (please be straight, Jackie, please.)

See this movie if you're a Chan fan, if you're in the mood for a quirky laugh, or if you just don't have anything better to do.
