Vanguard isn't entirely bereft of fun for action fans, but only the most devout Jackie Chan fans will find much that's truly worth watching here.

There's no reason why a movie that features Jackie Chan, lion attacks, and machete-wielding henchmen on Jet Skis should be as boring as Vanguard. November 26, 2020 | Rating: D | Full Review…

Chan's latest star vehicle didn't need to be anything more than a good work of propaganda, but it's not even compelling on those terms. November 20, 2020 | Rating: 2/4 | Full Review…

The movie might've flown as a larky fantasy-adventure whatsit if it possessed any self-aware wit. November 20, 2020 | Full Review…

"Vanguard" is... in line with [the] brand of amiable action mayhem Chan pioneered in 1980s vehicles like "Police Story" and "Project A," only not as good. November 19, 2020 | Full Review…

Vanguard may attract the ultra-bored and/or stir crazy and devoted Chan fans, but those expecting to see the blazing acrobatics of his earlier work will be intensely disappointed. November 18, 2020 | Full Review…

Towards the end of the film there's a wild ride through a Dubai shopping mall, but I'd venture a guess that most viewers will never make it that far through this stinker. November 26, 2020 | Rating: 1.5 / 5 | Full Review…

Chan's globetrotting action movie features a few brief, impressive car chases and other light moments, but it's largely weighed down by poor writing, bland villains, and a nonsensical plot. November 25, 2020 | Rating: 2/5 | Full Review…

Overall it was a really really fun package... but I really, really would have liked to have seen more martial arts stuff Jackie Chan stuff, fun goofy martial arts action. November 24, 2020 | Full Review…

As a time passer, die hard Chan fans will probably still find enough, and even if the main man himself feels a little off, there's an overriding sense of fun and vim from the younger cast November 24, 2020 | Full Review…

This movie defies genre not by seamlessly blending, but by jarringly overstuffing - forget scene by scene, you barely know what kind of movie you're watching minute by minute. November 24, 2020 | Rating: 2/5 | Full Review…

Vanguard is over complicated with a light tone, silly antics, solid gold cars, and Jackie Chan using John Cena's attitude adjustment wrestling maneuver. It has a few decent moments buried within this shiny gold turd of an action film. November 23, 2020 | Rating: 1.5/5 | Full Review…
