Trivia:
According to tour guides at Dublin Castle in Ireland, Jackie Chan hopped onto the throne during filming of The Medallion (2003). This made him the first person to sit on the throne since King George V. moreGoofs:
Continuity: Jackie uses a "NOD" (night optical device) to check out the dock before they get out of the water, but leaves the lens cap in place. moreQuotes:
Snakehead: [after Nicole falls to her death and Eddie is unable to save her, Snakehead tries to persuade Eddie to join him] My brother... don't be sentimental. It's so... unneccesary. It's so human. So normal. You and I will live forever. We are the lords of time. We can take whatever we want, whenever we choose. What difference can a simple life like hers make to us? We are immortal!Eddie Yang: Let me show you!
[Eddie flies upward to begin his duel with Snakehead]

Seriously light hearted and filled with wonderful stunts and fight choreography, The Medallion is about as entertaining as an action adventure movie can be. I loved Charlie's Angels because it was fun and loaded with action and The Medallion is no different. You know, there's absolutely nothing wrong with pure entertainment. Anyway, Jackie Chan is backed up by Claire Forlani, who does an "Angels" class job with her character, and the side splitting comedy of Lee Evans as the bumbling Interpol inspector Watson. Julian Sands plays a really good bad guy, as always. By the way, does Julian Sands seem to be getting younger? I mean, he's been making movies for a long time and he certainly doesn't appear to be getting any older. Maybe he should do The Portrait Of Dorian Gray for his next film.
