Magic Crystal is a Wong Jing production, which means is going to be goofy. While the movie is relatively clumsy, goofy and makes shameless nods to movies like ET and Indiana Jones, it has a tremendous cast with Andy Lau, Max Monk, Cynthia Rothrock and Richard Norton as Russian bad guy. Producer/director Wong Jing hams it up for some unwanted comic relief. As a film, Magic Crystal is just below average but made up for it with the amazing Hong Kong fight and stunt choreography that is second to none. There also is a lot of it..Magic Crystal.would be a cheesy movie in any decade, but we are talking the 80's here and that's next level cheese. Also, the film was shot in multiple locations across Europe and Hong Kong, which is nice. But, did I mention the action scenes in this movie ? That alone is more than worth the price of admission.
