Movie Description
Jackie Chan is back in action with THE MEDALLION, yet another fast-paced martial arts action-comedy. Chan plays Eddie Yang, a Hong Kong cop who is working with Interpol officer Arthur Watson (Lee Evans) in order to protect a gifted young child. Aware that the child holds a centuries-old medallion that could give him limitless powers, Snakehead (Julian Sands) and his band of criminals kidnap the child and head for Dublin. It isn't long before Eddie arrives in Ireland where he is teamed up with beautiful Interpol officer Nicole James (Claire Forlani), who also happens to be a former flame. Together Eddie, Nicole, and the bumbling Watson manage to track down the child, but after an accident in which Eddie appears to have died, it's up to the gifted boy to put the trusty medallion to work and resuscitate him.


While Chan appears to have lost a bit of a bounce from his early days, he still pulls off moves that would leave most actors flatfooted. This time around, director Gordon Chan uses special effects alongside superstar choreographer Sammo Hung's action sequences, giving the audience a double dose of adrenaline. As is the case with most Chan films, hilarious outtakes and bloopers accompany the film's closing credits.

"...[Mr. Hung] has given Mr. Chan a couple of virtuoso sequences, beautifully framed and edited, showing that at 50 Mr. Chan can still fly through the air with the best of them..."
New York Times - Dave Kehr (08/22/2003)

"...With Chan's affable charm and stunning leaps, kicks and jumps, it's a good natured and amusing spectacle..."
USA Today - Claudia Puig (08/22/2003)

"[R]edeemed by silliness, exaggeration, and Chan's skill and charm."
Chicago Sun-Times - Roger Ebert (12/17/2003)

"[Chan] remains remarkably limber..."

    The trailer made this out to be another great Jackie Chan movie!

    However it isn't as good as many of his other movies.

    Jackie is back in action with this movie, which is yet another fast-paced martial arts action-comedy that Jackie is so well known for.

    Jackie plays Eddie Yang, a Hong Kong cop who is working with an Interpol officer named Arthur Watson (Lee Evans). They join together in order to protect a gifted young child from harm.

    There is a lot of action sequences in this movie, but the funny side of Jackie just doesn't come across this time. Must have been the plot or the writer as we love seeing Jackie in the movies!

    Just a rental DVD, not recommended for repeated viewings or for your Jackie Chan Film Library.
