rating: 5 QuoteFor some reason I'd forgotten seeing this movie... But it all came back eventually! Good stuff!Quote
While I'm not saying the movie is forgettable, I am saying that I did forget having seen it until I re-watched it today. Now I remember good portions of it from before.

In all it's a comedy / martial arts piece with Jackie Chan and Owen Wilson. It's a worthy sequel to the original. Plenty more action, comedy and loose women, so-to-speak. The pillow fight seemed completely extraneous, and yet quite amusing. Though, it was apparently the most dangerous scene in the movie on account of the feathers being inhaled and not wanting to come out... Weird!

The picture quality's great. The sound track is good. Actually the soundtrack is kind of weird, and yet rather amusing at several point if only for the choice of songs...

Yup, I'm still a Jackie Chan fan after this movie. In fact, the Shanghai Noon / Shanghai Knights and Rush Hour series are some of his better movies. The Myth and The Forbidden Kingdom are damn good too. August 22, 2008

As an old Jackie Chan fan I was of course pleased to see him finally make his breakthrough in Hollywood with "Rush Hour" and "Shanghai Noon" some years ago, and I think highly of both movies.

But whereas the Rush Hour franchise has run on for too long, the tale of the two accidental western heroes is (as of yet) unspoiled. "Shanghai Knights" is funny, well produced, well acted, well actionpacked, generally well made, and, in my opinion, better than its predecessor "Shanghai Noon".

The jokes work, the action works, the plot works. In short: it works.

Highly recommendable. April 10, 2008

It's not as funny as Shanghai Noon. You can see it's obviously a spin-off of Shanghai Noon. That effort fails completely.

If you like Jackie Chan and Owen Wilson you still want to watch this. March 7, 2008

A great movie for fans of both Jackie Chan & Owen Wilson. Really funny and full of action. December 21, 2007

rating: 5 Quoteone of Jackie's bestQuote
Very underated Jackie movie. It is funny and has great action. (Nothing much else to say, I just wanted to put in my 5 stars worth.) August 23, 2007
