Overall the film is better than average but it still has a lot of issues with it.

Some of the action is pretty good, some not so much but there is actually a bit too much of it. At one point an action sequence went on so long I got up and made a coffee only to come back and find it still going.

The characters are 'almost' Bond like in their over the top-ness.

Parts of it did feel like an 80's Jackie Chan film.

It is worth watching I guess but I can't really express why :)

Needless to say that I sat down to watch this movie because of my admiration and love for the Asian cinema. And with this obviously being an action movie, then what is there not to like?

The storyline in "Extraordinary Mission" (aka "Fei fan ren wu") was a really messy and fuddled one. It was a storyline that made very little sense in most aspects.

And it didn't help that the characters were equally confusing, and not really having any distinctive personalities. This mundane character gallery was definitely weighing down the movie in overall.

The movie was sort of sluggish throughout two-thirds of the movie, right up until the location changed to Thailand. Then the movie amped up its action sequences tremendously.

And while we are on the topic of the action sequences in the movie, then I must admit that they were quite good, and it ultimately was those that held the movie afloat.

"Extraordinary Mission" might have an impressive title, but the movie itself was actually only mediocre.

This movie is full of action with a decent plot but director went a little overboard with poor editing and it is long by 30 minutes. It has no worst plot than any expendables or mission impossible and perfectly watchable if you are bored on a weekend. It should be a 6.5 but I gave it a 8 to keep the score high.
