In a retrospective write-up, Rick Baker & Ken Miller give the film a slightly positive review, stating "[s]everal well-coordinated stunts, courtesy of the Jackie Chan Stunt Team, help save this film from becoming a run-of-the-mill romance movie".[3] John Charles is slightly more negative, giving the film a rating of 4/10 and stating "the action sequences here are much shorter than those in the previous film and are not as well staged, leaving the comedy as the main component. For most viewers, that will not be enough".[2]
