Renny Harlin directs Jackie Chan, Johnny Knoxville and Fan Bingbing in this tale of a Hong Kong cop who needs to get a yankee gambler across borders from Siberia to back home with 72 hours. 

A poor man’s Midnight Run that outstays its welcome by a good half an hour… yet having said that… Jackie and Knoxville have a great chemistry that makes it difficult to dismiss. And why shouldn’t they work well together? A pair of past it but beloved B-Movie stars who made their names mixing risky stunts with broad comedy, I wouldn’t mind seeing them reunited in something a little tighter that hits the same notes as this does when it makes a concerted effort. Some of the earlier action sequences have a daft chaos and some neat visual jokes (the Russian dolls fight is a treat). Fan Bingbing is easy on the eye, as are the globetrotting locations. All in all forgettable but comfortable.
