| HKFlix Says: |
Another east-meets-west buddy film. We thought this flick was only mediocre, despite some great fights. The combination of bad directing and too many clichés bogs things down too much. |

| Plot: | Chinese Imperial Guard Chon Wang is a fish out of water in the wild and woolly West, where he meets up with laid-back outlaw cowboy dude Roy O'Bannon. The two face jail, brawls, bordellos and the vilest villains this side of the Great Wall!

| Overview: | Two cultures collide when East meets West in "Shanghai Noon", a wildly hilarious, stunt-filled action-adventure comedy starring the death-defying action hero Jackie Chan ("Rush Hour"), Owen Wilson ("Armageddon", "The Haunting") and Lucy Liu ("Payback", TV's "Ally McBeal").
Chan plays Chinese Imperial Guard Chon Wang who hightails it to the wild and woolly West to rescue the beautiful kidnapped Princess Pei Pei (Liu). When he meets up with laid-back outlaw cowboy dude Roy O'Bannon (Wilson)--the best mismatch ever made in the rough and tumble Old West--the two face jail, brawls, bordellos and the vilest villains this side of the Great Wall!
Spectacular stunts, outrageous irreverence and epic vistas reign as East meets West in a battle for honor, royalty and a fortune in gold! It's a real kick.
