Skiptrace

Renny Harlin's Skiptrace is big garland to crazy comedies of eighties. With a little scheme movie stays together mainly, because in some parts it actually is quite funny movie. Jackie Chan's fight scenes are well choreography, and it is hard to believe that he is already over sixty year old actor. Movie introduces beautiful and enormous China scenery beautifully and that is one of the best moments in this movie. Most surprising and cheerful moment of the movie happens in the middle of Gobi desert when Jackie Chan turn out to be big Adele fan. Adele's Rolling in the Deep hit smashes the movie to it's next level and makes it even more joyful. With a little confused plot the movie still have it moments. One of them is movies tongue-in-cheek attitude which is Jackie Chan's trademark. Also China's and Mongolia's scenery are breathtaking. With all the feebleness Skiptrace is actually a decent action comedy. With right state of mind it is very enjoyable movie. I can't recommend it to humourless persons, but to all Renny Harlin movie fans it is dandy crazy comedy.
