Oscar-winning action royalty Jackie Chan’s workload throughout last year is certain to keep the aged-yet-nimble and active auteur on our radar a bit in 2017. The latest example of this is best highlit by his recent pairing with director Stanely Tong following their work on films like Rumble In The Bronx and The Myth, and for this, we get Kung Fu Yoga which bodes as another similarly CZ12-ish globetrotter with lush scenery, epic views, and of course, the usual dose of action and comedy crazy signature of Chan filmlore.
Chinese archeology professor Jack teams up with beautiful Indian professor Ashmita and assistant Kyra to locate lost Magadha treasure. In a Tibetan ice cave, they find the remains of the royal army that had vanished together with the treasure, only to be ambushed by Randall, the descendent of a rebel army leader. When they free themselves, their next stop is Dubai where a diamond from the ice cave is to be auctioned. After a series of double-crosses and revelations about their past, Jack and his team travel to a mountain temple in India, using the diamond as a key to unlock the real treasure.
