Summary of Shanghai Noon
An action-comedy with a decidedly Western twist, Shanghai Noon features more acrobatics from superstar Jackie Chan. Chon Wang (Chan) is a dedicated member of the Chinese Imperial Guard. When the emperor's former captain, Lo Fong (Yuan), oversees an illegal operation that involves kidnapping Princess Pei Pei (Liu) and bringing her to America's wild West, it's up to Chong to save the day. Eventually partnering with the wise-cracking bandit Roy O'Bannon (Wilson), Chong uses his Eastern skills to tackle the wild West. Shanghai Noon is an high-kicking adventure with great comic chemistry between stars Chan and Wilson.
