The Movie

 

The wild west meets the far east in a battle for honour, royalty and a trunk full of gold when acrobatic Imperial Guard Chong Wang comes to America to rescue a beautiful kidnapped Chinese Princess.

With the help of a partner he doesn't trust, a wife he doesn't want, a horse he cannot ride and martial arts moves that no one can believe, Chan finds himself facing the meanest gunslingers in the West.

My Thoughts Movie Ratings
I really enjoyed this movie.  It is without a doubt Jackie Chan's best movie that he has made since Rumble In The Bronx.  Just take Rush Hour, make it a western, add more comedy and you have Shanghai Noon.  But, at least Jackie is allowed to star in this!
