Miracles is easily Chan's most ambitious and most accomplished film as a director. Wonderfully blending his classic slapstick action-comedy style with grand lavish sets, and an ambitious gangster-romance storyline that shows some of the best storytelling from Chan. And despite the plot after the 1st hour being a bit overstuffed, Chan's continous character development going from puppet boss into someone with his own agency and his own decisions, (that were brought out by the well acted Anita Mui's character) just heavily entertain and make up for a lot of the film's struggle to balance all of its messages and storylines. Not to mention the action sequences here by Chan are also some of the best we've ever seen. Rivaling even his greatest action sequences in Police Story and the like. He showcases remarkable framing, use of environment, intricate co-operative choreography with his opponents, and insane displays of agility and skill. I mean come on, at one point he did a tornado kick, spinning hook kick, and sweep kick all in one quick succession and one take. That is just fucking insane. Again, to me this is easily Chan's most ambitious and most accomplished work, all of it just combines into one grand and lavish gangster-romance-action-comedy-period drama that just so full of fun that it's hard not to admire.
