Ben Meyers’ Rating: 4.4|5.0 Starsìììì
Enter the Fat Dragon—WOW!—presents Donnie Yen in an exceptionally comical role of a policeman trying to please those at his work and the girl he adores most. Even though Yen is within the late 50s age group, he does not miss a beat with outstanding action and phenomenal body moves that defy reality. This highly watchable film easily earns a second watch as it shows the female and male interaction at its most basic level and plays with it comedically. Donnie Yen's talents have not waned. The exceptionally well-written dialogue and very good storyline completely support the action. Kudos to the makeup department who transform Donnie Yen into a very realistic fat person. The story, fabulously written, portrayed, and presented, uses terrific English subtitles for the Chinese language it was released in. Don’t miss this movie. It completely crosses international borders and is a worthy, fun watch. It’s a very good addition to the home video library.
