Jackie Chan returns in a cute, dubbed, martial arts flick.  He doesn't
exactly kick ass in this own though, as he spends much of his time defending
himself against groups of bad guys.  It could be fun to rent on video though.

A stewardess ends up on a plane with a psycho serial killer who manages to
break free from his guards, kill them, kill several other passengers, kill
the pilots, take the rest of the passengers hostage, leaving her to fight
it out with him.  Meanwhile, the plane flies on autopilot though a category
five storm that somehow has managed to find its way to the middle of the
country, over Utah/Colorado.

Eddie Murphy plays a cop in a good, but not great, crime drama.  It's not
particularly memorable for anything.

Chris Farley plays a really bad ninjitsu student in his usual fat, dumb
guy role role.  There's lots of visual gags and spoofs of other ninja
films, but it really isn't all that funny.  It reminds you in a way that
Saturday Night Live has also sucked for several years.
