Jackie Chan and Owen Wilson make a decent if somewhat anachronistic comedy duo in Shanghai Noon and its sequel Shanghai Knights. Filled with film content each of the comic actors is famous for, these movies show that their styles don’t always mesh amenably, but the tone of each film is light and goofy, and neither is a chore to sit through though the sequel is clearly the lesser of the two films. If each star has made better films, these often frantic fish-out-of-water comedies still go down pretty easily.
