synopsis
When a Chinese rebel murders Chon's estranged father and escapes to England, Chon and Roy make their way to London with revenge on their minds. Chon's sister, Lin, has the same idea, and uncovers a worldwide conspiracy to murder the royal family--but almost no one will believe her. With the help of a kindly Scotland Yard Inspector and a 10-year-old street urchin, the acrobatic Chon gives Victorian Britain a kick in the pants as he attempts to avenge his father's death--and keep the romance-minded Roy away from his sister.

Grating. That's the best word to describe this flat follow-up to Shanghai Noon, the Wild West comedy, circa 1881, that co-starred Jackie Chan as Chon Wang (sounds like John Wayne, get it?) and Owen Wilson as Roy O'Bannon, his surfer-dude-talking sidekick. The sequel moves the boys to London, where they do the same shtick (Chan somersaults, Wilson wisecracks). They also try to catch the killer of Chon's father with the help of the young Charlie Chaplin and police inspector Artie Doyle, who likes
Those mismatched, Wild West cowboys Jackie Chan and Owen Wilson are back for more fun, this time heading to merry old London to kick some booty. Story Shanghai Knights is really just a thinly veiled plot device to a) show more of Jackie Chan's amazing abilities; b) show the chemistry between Chan and Owen Wilson and c) show Chan in yet another fish-out-of-water situation. As a sequel with all the ''right stuff'' already in place, Knights apparently doesn't need an intriguing story. Starting
