Jackie Chan was very successful in doing something about the fault of the first Armour of God, and Operation Condor is better in just about every department.
The action is even better choreographed, maybe even to such a high degree it gets a bit stupid, but then again...the comedy reigns high in this one. Jackie and his co-stars have much better chemistry in this one, and that makes for some very nice moments along the way. Both comedy and storywise.
...but the most important thing is that it has NO boring parts. It slows down yes, but never gets boring.
All in all, a much better effort than the first Armour of God, and highly watchable if you are into Jackie Chan's brand of action comedy.
You know whilst watching Dial of Destiny a few months ago I couldn't quite put my finger on why I found the film and it's many action sequences boring than I watch something like this that has thirty years prior and shows just how something in the same genre with a much smaller budget did it so much better.
What baffles me about this movie is this: How can you shoot 50% of your movie in Morocco and still get 100% of Morocco wrong?!
