Vanguard Reviews

Apr 11, 2025

The Chinese keep throwing money at films but they have a lot to learn still… and Jackie Chan is a good guy but doesn’t take it seriously enough… the scene in the film that lured me in (via Tiktok) was a 30 second standout; the rest of the film was a D- list James Bond flick.

In London Qin Guoli, a wealthy Chinese accountant and his family are the targets of a deadly terrorist organization, "Brothers of Vengeance" Qin hires Vanguard, a private covert security company that caters to the rich. Vanguard's owner Tang Huanting, leads his team to Africa to rescue Qin's daughter before the terrorists grab her. The chase takes them to a furious river with a cool water car and a awesome fight on jet skis... dead ending off a massive water fall. But this is not about money, this is about revenge, a personal vendetta .... And time is running out. I only watched Vanguard because of Jackie Chan, and it is a really cool action flick. Lots of cool locations, London, Africa, Middle East, and Dubai and full of fights, crashes, explosions, cool spy drones, and of course a bit of Jackie Chan humor. Vanguard is definitely worth the watch. Nothing really special, just a fun entertaining Jackie Chan movie. Cast - Jackie Chan, Yang Yang, Miya Muq, Jackson Lou

3 stars; Let's see. Nonstop Marshal Arts fighting scenes - check. Exciting Car/Jeep chases - check. Stunts that seem impossible or they must be CGI'ed - check. A number of international locations- check. A kidnapped daughter of some big shot who must be rescued - check. Yep, I'm watching a Jackie Chan movie. It doesn't really matter that his movies are so boiler plate. They are fun, even if the dialogue is a little unsophisticated. The only negative for this film to me was the multi-language aspect. The continual back-and-forth from the subtitles was disconcerting.

Sad to see Jackie's once famous stunt laden movies reduced to low-budget CGI nonsense where the laws of physics and the laws of acting are all optional

Old Jackie, stiff acting, nonsensical action.

This is the worst Jackie Chan (The Accidental Spy, Mr. Nice Guy) and Stanley Tong (Swordsman II, Mr. Magoo) collaboration which is a shame

I dropped it at the lion scene. It's a perfect example of lazy writing. Such a shame, I'm usually a fan of Jackie Chan movies, but this is ridiculous

Developers leaked that this game was going to suck months ago I don't feel sympathy for any of y'all who bought it 🤣

This action comedy was pretty good. Jackie Chan, Yang Yang, Miya Muqi, Jackson Lou, Eyad Hourani, and the rest of the cast did a pretty good job in this movie. The plot of the movie was action-packed, thrilling, and entertaining. The fight scenes were pretty cool as well. If you haven't seen this movie yet, check it out sometime. It's worth watching.

Very disappointing and a complete waste of time. And the CGI is laughable. The gun play is terrible. The action itself is weak. I stopped paying attention about half way through. The ending is awful.

I don't know why Jackie Chan even wasted his time with this terrible movie. Time for Jackie to get on board with Rush Hour 4!

Totally in Chinese, pretty weak on Jackie Chan, can't really recommend.

Mar 16, 2021

The movie is terrible the effects are so fake that made The movie look ridiculous. The pro Chinese confrontation to the world is worse that the Bruce Lee movies. Terrible

What a great movie. Jackie Chan. 66 years older. The acting was a bit AAA but this was really enjoyable. He looks like he’s still in his 20s. The ending monologue was touching especially during Covid. Great job Jackie!!!!

One of the most boring movie I have ever seen. Poor acting, poor scripts and poor cgi.

From this movie, got the feeling of "Who am I". Overall quite good and Jackie Chan's style movie, also the traditional formula.

Jan 13, 2021

Good Movie but needed English subtitles in a lot of parts and there weren't any at my theater.

Jan 10, 2021

Amazing that Jackie Chan is still risking his life to create movies for us. This is what I call a popcorn movie, nonstop action from start to finish. It's a bit like Fast and Furious. Only thing I didn't like was the CGI.
