Great Film: Shanghai Knights
This Sequel Worked
This movie is actually funny and entertaining. I wasn't expecting much
because the past several Jackie Chan films, Rush Hour sequels and the
Tuxedo, have sucked. But, the duo of Chan and Wilson really worked. The
whole Sherlock Holms gag with the author and the Charlie Chan kid were very
funny. IT was also very funny when they are in the hotel in New York City
and we find out Roy really works there and isn't rich. This has plenty of
Chan stunts with ladders, amazing kicks, and swords. Plus, it was nearly 2
hours, but it didn't feel long. Most "comedies" now days if over 90 minutes
really start to feel dull, but that wasn't the case with this
film.
PS: Watching this makes pillow fights look really fun!
FINAL VERDICT: This is worth renting if you are looking for some laughs and
entertaining night.
