Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaAccording to the commentary: the fight scene with the horseshoe was nearly impossible to do with a fake horseshoe, as it was too light. Jackie Chan, however, refused to strike any of the stuntmen with a real horseshoe, saying it was too dangerous.
- GoofsIf Chon Wang is an Imperial Guard, then that means that PeiPei is an imperial princess (i.e. Emperor's daughter). In the movie, the guards all call her "Gong Zhu", but that refers to a king's daughter. An imperial princess is supposed to be called a "Ge Ge."

Featured review
Agreeable and sympathetic Western-comedy movie with a likable and fun duo
The film is developed in the Forbidden City , Being , 1881 , and begins when the Chinese princess (Luci Liu) is kidnapped by the villain Fong (Yuan) and asking for a rescue . A faithful servant named Wang (Jackie Chan) follows the tracks until Nevada, and along the way he teams up with a roguish gunfighter (Owen Wilson). Once in the West they will confront Indians , a treacherous sheriff (Xander Berkeley) and perfidious Chinese people.
The motion picture displays Western action , humor with tongue-in-cheek , spectacular struggles in Jackie Chan style and results to be pretty funny. Jackie Chan and Owen Wilson create an enjoyable and amusing couple . The highlights of the movie are the breathtaking movements executed by Jackie Chan himself , as he goes into action with his kicks , bounds and leaps . It's usual in Chan movies to form enjoyable duos , -in buddy movie style- , as male partner : Chris Tucker (Rush hour I, II and III) , as female: Jennifer Love Hewitt (The Tuxedo) and Claire Forlani (The medallion) and this one to pair off splendidly with Owen Wilson . Furthermore, Chan owns a funny horse, Jolly Jumper-alike from Lucky Luke series . The movie gets a glimmer cinematography and appropriate music score accompanying to action by Randy Edelman , composer along with Trevor Jones , of the classic soundtrack for ¨The last Mohican¨. The film was well directed by Tom Day and followed by a inferior sequel : ¨Shanghai knights¨ , set in 1887, London , where our two friends recover a valuable royal jewel robbed in the forbidden city.
