I went to the premiere yesterday and you won't be disappointed. Jackie Chan and Steve Coogan were a great pairing. The dialogue was hilarious and the chemistry was exceptional. Director Frank Cooraci first attempt at an action movie was great. The no blood, no deaths element to 80 Days was a wonderful change of pace with the current summer action blockbusters.
Again, Chan showcases his phenominal and limitless martial arts choreographies. More importantly, it's done tastefully with no one dying or bleeding. My favorite scene was when Chan is fighting with a gang of evil chinese dudes in front of a black canvas inside of an art studio. It looked like a living painting-really cool and creative!
This is a movie that the whole family can enjoy too. It has tons of laughs and is a great adventure. Definitely check it out!
If you've ever seen I'm Alan Partridge or any Steve Coogan movies you know you are definately getting you're moneys worth on comedy. Then there's Jackie Chan supplying the action and god knows how many cameos for eye candy.
Coogan is hilarious in this movie and I've seen some episodes of Alan Partridge and they're great. Are there any other Coogan works I should check out? Thanks!

I wouldn't really recommend The Parole Officer, but 24 Hour Party People is by far his best work. I can't remember if he's done anymore than that, but those two are the ones I know about.
Other than that he's done quite a bit of comedy stuff for British TV.
