"While you might not always appreciate the historical aspects of the story, you will definitely find Chan's physical acumen amazing."  PopMatters  Bill Gibron

B-
"While the plot does get in the way of what viewers are really after, there's enough of the fun stuff to keep them interested."  EricDSnider.com  Eric D. Snider

B-
"Generally amusing and sometimes positively exhilarating."  One Guy's Opinion  Frank Swietek

2.5/4
"Chan fans will probably want to pay to see this one on the big screen. Everyone else can bide their time for the video release."  ReelViews  James Berardinelli

3/4
"Chan delivers everything that could possibly be expected."  Q Network Film Desk  James Kendrick

8/10
"Anita Mui all but pulls a heist herself in every scene she's in, but make no mistake. This is Chan's movie, and he holds his own, whether it's using his comedic talents to feign drunkenness or strike a goofy face, or showing off those impressive martial a"  DVDTown.com  James Plath

2.5/4
"I'm extremely unhappy when one of my HK favorites is re-released, re-titled and re-packaged as an English-dubbed Jackie Chan vehicle for American audiences to ostensibly enjoy."  Palo Alto Weekly  Jeanne Aufmuth

"Beyond all of the fighting and stunts, there isn't much else present to recommend the film."  Screen It!  Jim Judy

4/4
"If you're looking to have a really wild time, this is the film to see."  Montreal Film Journal  Kevin N. Laforest

4.5/5
"At long last, the American masses will get a glimpse of what Jackie Chan can really do."  Film Threat  Michael Dequina

3.5/4
"Compensates for what it lacks in plot with hearty laughs and truly spectacular action sequences."  TheMovieReport.com  Michael Dequina

3.5/5
"Among the most breathtakingly wonderful acts of physical endurance and grace that I have ever seen."  Goatdog's Movies  Michael W. Phillips, Jr.

5/5
"There can be little doubt that Drunken Master 2 is one of the greatest martial arts films ever made."  Mike Bracken's Horror Films  Mike Bracken

3/5
"Chan is the most agile and acrobatic screen fighter ever."  Movie Mom at Yahoo! Movies  Nell Minow

2/4
"Suffers from some of worst problems of the martial arts genre: bad dubbing, bad soundtrack, chaotic plot, no character development ... but it has great fights and stunts."  Laramie Movie Scope  Robert Roten

"A film with just enough story to be interesting and with lots of personality to stand out."  Movie Views  Ryan Cracknell
