  1. Coraci has given us a film that is not only amusing, but well-acted, and not only well-acted, but gorgeous. Micha Klein's animated transitions alone, which are used to signal each change in location, are wondrous and lovely to behold.
  2. 60
    As the tourist on a time budget, the usually brilliant Coogan merely mugs and flails (we can only imagine what Johnny Depp would have done with Fogg), while he and able straight man Chan enjoy scant opportunity to develop any comic rapport.
  3. With the exception of one masterfully choreographed - and improbably bloodless - martial-arts gang fight, the new version of Jules Verne's Around the World in 80 Days is one of the lamest remakes of a classic film I've ever seen.

    It's a standard Jackie Chan film. Timing directed cheap action on a beautiful story. This movie it's just a pale shadow of the '56 movie.

    God, what a f.cking piece of sh.t. I'm a fan of Verne's novel, and they've just butchered it. Again. Oh well, that's Hollywood for you. De France and Jackie Chan are the only ones who actually do well. Possibly because they're not taking their roles seriously and they're just in it for the money. They were wasted on this crap. Expand
