Shanghai Knights

This sequel to 2000’s delightfully goofy action comedy offers mostly lukewarm leftovers, as Owen Wilson’s wannabe outlaw and Jackie Chan’s Chinese Imperial Guard
find themselves in Victorian England. Shanghai Knights is no I Spy, and it’s certainly not
The Tuxedo, but both Wilson and Chan have done far better work. In fact, it’s called Shanghai Noon.

Recent Reviews

Toy Story 5 (2026)

Family Rated PG

“If Toy Story 5 doesn’t quite rise to the challenge of its conceit, it still offers plenty of familiar fun.”

Rose of Nevada (2026)

Horror Rated NR

“…a work of oblique horror, a ghost story that’s something of an apparition itself.”

Z (1969)

Drama Rated NR

“. . . a bitter, brilliant pill to swallow.”
