Guns and Roses

I sat down to watch Guns N' Roses on opening day in Ningbo, China. From the opening, it seemed like it would be a crime drama with a comedic touch a la Jacky Chan. However, the Manchurian setting combined with the clichéd bad guys (the Japanese are always bad guys in Chinese films)and the very unpredictable love story make this film both comedic and dramatic. I would call it a comedic version of Indiana Jones starring Jacky Chan with some unconventional twists. I watched it twice in the theatre and now own it on DVD. There are some serious flaws, the most serious being some of the awful computer graphics used at the end of the film. However, all in all, it is a gem of a film.
