MOVIE REVIEW

Jackie Chan returns to American theaters after his painfully dreadful "thing" known as "The Tuxedo" in a much more secure and entertaining sequel to "Shanghai Noon," aptly titled "Shanghai Knights." This time, he and Owen Wilson (still cowboys) head to Victorian England in search of the man who killed Chan's father, and end up becoming involved in a deadly plot to assassinate the royal family. Action and some comedy ensue in this light-hearted and fun film that never takes itself too seriously. Full movie review »
