Synopsis
It's 1887, and odd-couple heroes Chon Wang (Jackie Chan) and Roy O'Bannon (Owen Wilson) are in London to retrieve the Imperial Seal of China, stolen by an English lord (Aidan Gillen) who killed Wang's father in his quest for the British throne. Wang's lithe and lovely sister (Fann Wong) joins the battle with high-kicking force, appealing to Roy's roguish charm and surfer-dude anachronisms.
Critics' reviews
- "Turns out to be that rarest of Hollywood creatures: a sequel that one-ups the original"
- "Pretty mediocre entertainment, and probably better suited for home viewing than a trip to the multiplex"
- "It's too bad Chan's imagination and delicacy were wasted in this movie."
