Movies that feel likeShanghai Noon (2000)
If you loved Shanghai Noon, the closest films we have are O Brother, Where Art Thou? (2000), The Good, the Bad, the Weird (2008) and Taxi (1998). All three share Shanghai Noon's epic and witty feel, which is what we rank on before quality.
Seen the big three already? The under-the-radar pick below is OSS 117: Cairo, Nest of Spies (2006).

Western with a pulse of play, in both cases
The difference: 36 years apart, and the 1960s show

Gritty comedy, and it commits to that
The difference: Easier on the scale than Shanghai Noon

The same preoccupation in both: native american

Adventure built on scale, twice over
The difference: The critics' underdog of the pair

One thread runs through both: martial arts

Witty western in both cases

Both keep coming back to the same thing: cowboy
