That people would complain about bad acting, strange dubbing, and/or a convoluted plot just leaves me flabbergasted.

From the very beginning, it should be evident that a big part of the point of the film is its own self-deprecating humor. He longed to get back to society where someone could tell him who he was. The "Morgan" character is played perfectly (and hilariously) as a crooked CIA operative out for his own gain while feigning loyalty to the USA.

Yuki is a master stunt-driver with the naivete and wide-eyed innocence of a schoolgirl.

all movies I love to watch, but hate to love. The meeting of the American intelligence officials is a completely ironic reference to the same sort of scene you'd expect in any James Bond movie. When he's returned to "civilization," the doctor is impressed with that tactic, saying, "That coconut IV technique is only used by elite military units!" Is there any way to even dream of taking the plot/dialogue seriously at this point?

The acting is "bad" by design.

To criticize it for this as a "failing" seems to me to profoundly miss the point. πέθανες

Inappropriate expectations would be the only "problem" I can imagine that would reduce one's enjoyment of this film.

If you want a more serious Jackie Chan film, you might try Drunken Master II, or Police Story. Who am I?" This is a JOKE, folks. It is also Chan's second film to be scripted and shot in English, the first one being Mr.

Nice Guy.

Description by Wikipedia

Who Am I?

is a 1998 Hong Kong spy action comedy film directed by Benny Chan and Jackie Chan, who also starred in the leading role, and writer with Susan Chan and Lee Reynolds. But if you're looking for an enjoyable and sardonic 100 minutes, this is truly one of Jackie's great vehicles.

What is Who Am I? about?

Jackie Chan was a highly secretive operative who was working with the CIA in South Africa, when everything went wrong.

The actors were obviously told to ham up everything they did. Did the same viewers dislike that "Hot Shots: Part Deux" was absurd too?

Overall, the strengths of the film deserve the attention: it is a very funny parody of the overplotted "action/intrigue" genre, it has a terrific car chase, notable action sequences, and a terrific Jackie-Chan-Style fight scene at the beginning of the film's climax.

Perhaps I enjoyed this movie because I had grown up watching the "GI Joe" cartoon series, and had always been rather insulted by the fact that it managed to be both preachy and stupid at the same time.



A few minutes later, Jackie saves a snake-bite victim with an IV he improvises from a COCONUT! Jackie Chan kicks ass in all of them, but the voice acting and plots are just miserable, Luckily, a movie like Who Am I? has come along, and not only does Jackie kick ass, but he's assisted by improved acting and a semi-decent plot.

MOVIE REVIEW

Rumble in the Bronx, First Strike, and Operation Condor... The film was released theatrically in Hong Kong on 17 January 1998. If you're looking for a great 100 minutes of parody and HUMOR, I'd recommend this movie. If you're more interested in believability and suspending your disbelief, this film will definitely not work for you at all.

Campy Over-the-Top Cartoon Fun!

I'm astonished that there were so many negative reviews here...

This film is OBVIOUSLY not meant to be taken seriously.
