Such a frustrating disappointment

So much average

As Good As It Gets

It's fun, it's light, [but] it has a hard time when its tries to get heavy.

I loved the movie. I think Jackie Chan and Owen Wilson is a great pair for a movie. I can't wait to watch the sequel (Shanghai Knights) The comedy is really good. I would watch it again in a heartbeat. Jackie Chan is funny, Owen Wilson is witty. I find it interesting how they would do a mix of Asian culture and western culture. I know this was made in 2000 but I think the time line is around 1800All in all, I would give it a solid eight.

This was on TV a few days ago and I thought it was funny. The movie was about a Chinese man(played by Jackie Chan)who goes to the Wild Wild West and meets up with a quirky young man who is a train robber played by Owen Wilson and the two unlikely duo set off to save a Chinese princess(played by Lucy Lu)who is kidnapped,and its up to Chan and Wilson to save her. The humor is funny and the acting was very good. Chan was awesome and Wilson was great as im a fan of his since Meet The Parents all the way to Night At The Museum franchise. He actually reminded me of Jedadah(who he plays in Night at the Museum)in this movie. The action was great and for a Western Parody I say check it out. I enjoyed it.6.6/10

Imperial guard Chon Wang (Jackie Chan) is in love with Princess Pei Pei (Lucy Liu). She runs away from an arranged marriage but instead she's taken for ransom to America by traitor Lo Fong. Three guards are sent to pay the ransom and Chon Wang begs to join the expedition. In Nevada, they encounter train robber Roy O'Bannon (Owen Wilson) and his gang. Wang and O'Bannon are forced together when Wallace takes over the gang and later O'Bannon is found cheating at cards.Killing the uncle is probably not a good way to start the partnership. There are plenty of ways to better start the duo on their path together. That's really my only complaint. The comedy is sometimes broad like a hilarious Blazing Saddles scene. Jackie Chan is hilarious. Owen Wilson brings out his devilish charms. The old west is a great place for Jackie Chan to discover new props for his action scenes. The guys are a great comedy duo and there are plenty of big laughs.

shanghai noon is easily jackie chans best American movie action wise, now don't get me wrong i prefer rush hour as a movie, but shanghai noon is a much better showcase for chan's sort of action and comedy, and for the most part the movie succeeds, and owen Wilson as his partner and friend is hilarious in this. some of the action is brilliantly done, and even though it doesn't touch his hong kong stuff, but is much better than rush hour, and the stunts in this are better and more daring. the reason shanghai noon is so enjoyable is because it works as just a movie, a comedy and an action movie, there's plenty here for everyone. i seen the sequel and i didn't like it, the action was more wire work, and cgi, and it just felt forced, and unneeded. but never the less i recommend shanghai noon, its a perfect film to introduce jackie chan to people and new fans alike
