Not Exactly Carnival, 5 July 2000
8/10
Author: pbalos from Panama City, Panama

in Rio, but a really well thought out Chan film. A very interesting and familiar array of characters.One can almost feel the breeze coming in off the S.Atlantic.One of the better films for Jimmy Chan (Victor Sen Yung).It's easy to watch over again.
