"Set in 1937 in Shanghai, a beautiful missionary hires a man in need to raise money to head back to the States to track down a shipment of opium. Not only does the casting of Madonna as a missionary feel like a joke, but the movie in itself, with its random plot developments, is hard to take seriously."
