I thought Jackie doesn't play villains/criminals?

Even though the movie glamourises and makes it all fun and innocent, Jackie's character is essentially a thief who steals multi million dollar items from people.

I think it's a fun movie and one of the better JC movies I've seen in a long time.
but I still can't get over the fact that in reality, you are cheering for a criminal to win, even if the movie has worst villains/criminals out there, it still doesn't change the fact that what JC and his group are doing is equally unlawful.

I couldn't really understand the plot of this movie - I can't remember the last time when a movie's plot confused me this much.

"Jackie's character is essentially a thief who steals multi million dollar items from people. "

Yeah, you should hear him talk about 'almighty dollar' being his god in the original Armor of God..

I recall that statement from somewhere to. I heard it when Rush Hour came out I think. Sratch that part I really liked the action in the movie although the plot was random as popcorn popping.
