    I'm a Chan Fan but Forlani is still my main reason for watching this. It's not a bad story and Chan performs his usual magic as he jumps and kicks his way through the flic.
    Evans is a little OTT for my liking but you get used to him by the end.
    I liked it.

    Once upon a time, I thought Jackie Chan could do no wrong. A god if cinema, who's comic timing and entertaining martial arts could save any film. And then I saw ... The Medallion.

    Lee Evans is a funny guy, and he's also funny in The Medallion, but I think he's the wrong person to pair with Jackie. The action was also a bit underwhelming. Not without it's moments, but still disappointing.

    Oh no jackie! what happened?! im not exactly sure what happened in this movie. many of jackies western films hes done such as the rush hour series or shanghai movies have turned out very well in bringing a funny commedian, a sexy chick and a big budget, BUT this movie turned out to be a pretty big disappointment i think. the comedy in movie was almost like they tried too hard and lee evans was the completely wrong commedian for jackie to work with..(maybe he should stick to something about mary). i dont like to see jackie in bad movies, but this one was pretty bad..the storyline also was not very well thought out and there were too many dragonball z-like fights/ideals..not that the show is bad, but cartoons should stay cartoons and kung fu movies should stay good ol fashion fist on fist, not immortals shooting lasers and running the speed of bullets..im pretty sure anytime the dwarf from the lord of the rings series is in a kung fu..it'll turn out bad, just the nature of how cinemia works..stay to what you know best, and in jackies case, good old fashion kung fu, not computer annimated dragonball z fights.

    This is what American cinema does: take something great (like Jackie Chan); add special effects, wires, a sexy chick, and Lee Evans. It's a far cry from Chan's best films. Most of the fight scenes are too dark to enjoy (another western technique). However, the stunts are decent and there's a great chase scene to be found. The plot is laughable but in all the wrong places. This film reminds me a lot of The Tuxedo, but this one is much better and at least has a hilarious outtake montage that ranks among Chan's best and funniest.

    Big-budget Chinese movie made for the West (so a huge flop for both). Except maybe for kids from anywhere.

    Very bad movie, BUT incredible cast! Lee Evans gives a sensationally funny performance. See it for that if you're gonna see it. The action is what's poorly done!

    So stupid! The idiots that made this should be ashamed of themselves. It is movies like this one that have given Jackie Chan a bad reputation.

    This is a strange movie in some ways. I don't understand why it looked like it was dubbed. It was ok though.

    Jackie Chan was funny and awesome as always. Claire Forlani was beautiful and great. Love her accent.
    Lee Evans was such a funny guy! I really liked him.
    Good plot, didn't really like the fantasty part at the ending, but it was okey.
    Not many movies you see Chan's charachter involved with a girl =P

    The movie seems to try hard to become a movie with a little bit of very film genre but sticks to comedy and action the most. By having all these little bits of other genres in so little amount of time corrupts the overall appearance of the movie. As a result, the movie fails in the little pieces and even the ending. When Jackie gets pinned by the horn, the villain should do a full on attack! Because he just stands there and lets Jackie kill him, the ending becomes an extremely lame ending that can make the movie lose alot of marks. Fortunately, the cast especially Lee Evans does a very entertaining performance. Claire Forlani indicates that she can to pretend fight really well. But above all else, Sammo Hung as the choreographer does the best job, minus the ending. Every fight except the last have the good'ol Hong Kong style that I have grown to love. Sammo even manages to make Claire look as good as she is in her fights. And Christy Chung does a surprisingly good job in the one fight she participates in. This is a really good comeback for Jackie after the extremely embarrassing Tuxedo.

    Love Jackie Chan. This film was pretty good--not as good as when Chris Tucker's got his back, though.

    Not the greatest movie done by Jackie Chan, but it does have its moments and is a bit different.. I think it has a bit of a love story in it too.

    This action comedy took me by surprise because I really wasn't expecting the comedy. Then once I reallized what kind of movie I was watching I was able to let it soak in. Good action from jackie chan. Although he has done more karate in other films, this one has the comedy thing. I would compare this movie to the Golden Child with Eddie Murphy.

    'The Tuxedo's illegitimate offspring? I don't know, and I don't really care. It's grinningly-funny, but overall uninspired.

    Cool movie... Just as expected from a Jackie Chan movie: Lots of martial arts coreography, wireworks and funny events with a lesson to learn at the end... XD
    Not so different from other JC films though I keep liking his style.
    Recomended... XD
