Shanghai Knights is an interesting movie. Of course it could have been better....but come on, it could have been worse. I personally thought it was a great movie! It had humor, sword fights, fist fights, and great actors. Now, this movie made me a HUGE fan of Aidan Gillen-he's great as Lord Rathbone. Of course Jackie Chan and Owen Wilson are spectacular too- as are the secondary characters. See this movie. It's a great movie!!(((the DVD extras are amazing: deleted scenes, audio commentary from the director and screen writers, a music video entitled "action overload" featuring all the fight scenes, and a "fight manual" with Jackie Chan and the director(David Dobkin)...all in all...the DVD is a great buy)))
