Movies like Shanghai Noon

Combining the action-comedy genre with a culture clash duo, Rush Hour features Jackie Chan as a Hong Kong cop paired with a fast-talking Los Angeles detective, played by Chris Tucker. Like Shanghai Noon, it's filled with action-packed sequences and comedic moments stemming from the interaction between two very different characters.

Directed by John Carpenter, Big Trouble in Little China is a cult classic that blends action, adventure, and supernatural elements with a comedic western twist. Similar to Shanghai Noon, it features Kurt Russell navigating through a world filled with martial arts and mystical lore, bringing a good dose of humor to the mix.

Set in the same western backdrop as Shanghai Noon, Wild Wild West combines the old west with steampunk elements, as two special agents, played by Will Smith and Kevin Kline, save the President from a diabolical inventor. The comedic undertones and action sequences might appeal to those who delighted in Jackie Chan's cowboy escapades.

Jackie Chan stars alongside Jet Li in The Forbidden Kingdom, a fantasy adventure that, much like Shanghai Noon, weaves martial arts into its narrative. Viewers will enjoy the East-meets-West fusion and the journey filled with humor and stylized fight scenes.

Maverick, starring Mel Gibson, Jodie Foster, and James Garner, brings a lighthearted and comedic tone to the western genre. Its poker-themed plot and charming characters provide a fun, adventurous atmosphere akin to Shanghai Noon, but with less martial arts and more card-playing antics.

This adventure-comedy film features Jackie Chan in a globe-trotting quest, echoing the cross-cultural journey of Shanghai Noon. While the setting is different, the film carries the same light-hearted spirit and showcases Chan's signature fight choreography amidst a historical backdrop.

As the direct sequel to Shanghai Noon, Shanghai Knights takes the thrilling adventure to London where our dynamic duo faces new challenges and banters their way through the Victorian era. Fans of the original film's unique blend of western and martial arts action will find more of the same enjoyable chemistry between the two leads, Jackie Chan and Owen Wilson.
