Shanghai Knights is really not very good. I liked the prequel, but this one would have been better billed as a tribute to Harold Lloyd than as a movie. It even has a hanging-off-a-clock-face scene. It lacks the pace and humour of even an average Jackie Chan movie, and doesn't even reach the usual basic level of pseudo-plot. I gather from IMDB reviews that it might be more entertaining for Americans who are sufficiently unfamiliar with things British that the very mention of haggis, spotted dick and Stonehenge is enough to render a movie hilarious, but that doesn't really do it for me.
Daredevil is pretty drab as well.
