Lacking the freshness of Shanghai Noon, it compensates with a looser, disposable plot that plays to the strengths of costars Jackie Chan and Owen Wilson. It's 1887, and odd-couple heroes Chon Wang (Chan) and Roy O'Bannon (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.

Reviews
New York Times - ...This time the silliness is as contagious as it is outrageous....[Chan] has come through with one of his best..., USA Today - ...The star play and anachronisms recapture some of the surreal spirit of the Crosby-Hope ROAD movies..., Entertainment Weekly - ...[Chan] is a talent not so much cooling down as getting cool in middle age. And it turns out, his is just the right temperature for light entertainment..., Chicago Sun-Times - ...SHANGHAI KNIGHTS has a nice mix of calculation and relaxed goofiness, and in Jackie Chan and Owen Wilson, once again teams up two playful actors who manifestly enjoy playing their ridiculous roles..., Box Office - With SHANGHAI KNIGHTS, Jackie Chan proves himself king of the Hollywood buddy picture..., Total Film - ...SHANGHAI KNIGHTS sees Jackie indulge his passion for Buster Keaton and all things silent and comic-like..., Variety - ...Propelled by potent chemistry between Jackie Chan and Owen Wilson, SHANGHAI KNIGHTS proves that, sometimes, bigger actually can be better. A hugely entertaining and more lavishly mounted follow-up to 2000's SHANGHAI NOON...
Additional Information
In this entertaining sequel to SHANGHAI NOON, Chon Wang (Jackie Chan) and Roy O'Bannon (Owen Wilson) are reunited on an adventure that leads them from their home in the USA to England. Upon hearing of his father's murder in China at the hands of the English Lord Rathbone (Aidan Gillen), Wang leaves his law-enforcing life in Nevada and heads east. In New York City, he tracks down Roy, who now works as a waiter/gigolo. After a close encounter with New York's finest, Wang and Roy travel to London, where they team up with Wang's sister, Lin (Fann Wong), also out to avenge their father's death. Their search uncovers a plot to assassinate the royal family and brings them into contact with many touchstones of turn-of-the-20th-century British culture.
A fitting follow-up to Chan and Wilson's first pairing, SHANGHAI KNIGHTS takes the fish-out-of-water element of the original and doubles it, as both Wang and Roy navigate the highs and lows of Victorian London. Chan, as always, astounds with a series of acrobatic fight sequences that involves unusual accessories such as revolving doors, fruit stands, and Chinese vases. And Wilson once again aptly fills the role of the wisecracking opportunist with a conscience who has a wry quip for every occasion. Meanwhile, Fann Wong is luminous as Wang's high-kicking sister; Aidan Gillen sneers superbly as the scheming Rathbone, and Hong Kong legend Donnie Yen makes the most of his small role as Rathbone's co-conspirator. In addition to incorporating Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, Charlie Chaplin, and Jack the Ripper into the story, David Dobkin's amusing film also features knowing nods to SINGING IN THE RAIN and the Harold Lloyd classic SAFETY LAST.

Funny, full of action but overdone comedy on fights
I really liked Shanghai Noon and looked forward to Shanghai Knights, but the choreography of the comedic fighting scenes is just overdone for me: even Singing in the Rain gets into a fight! My son on the other hand thinks Knights is just about better than Noon - a huge accolade as he's a major fan of Shanghai Noon. Definitely plenty of action and comic scenes. Full of parodies of victorian england and other stereotypes.

Shanghai Knights
Not as good an offering as Shanghai Noon but well worth watching because of the chemistry that exists between Chan and Wilson, their differences make them a really good comedy pairing. The action sequences are superb and the choice of a Chinese and American cowboy pairing in old London town comes off surprisingly well.
