2017 action-adventure comedy film as Jack, an incredibly famous prehistoric professor, and his group are on an excellent mission to find a lost old Indian fortune when they are trapped by a group of soldiers of fortune and left for dead.
The fast-paced plotting, and typically silly action-comedy sight gags ensure that the 103-minute running time breezes by, but there is little here that hasn't been seen before, or that Chan hasn't done better.
If you have grown up watching Jackie Chan movies and loved him more for his comic timing and endearing goofiness or his expert kung fu, Kung Fu Yoga will leave you with a feeling of sadness.
By the time it all culminates in a Chan-led classic Bollywood production number, the cuteness factor may have been pushed to its limit, but good luck trying to stop that goofy smile from spreading across your face.
The slapstick fight scenes and action set-pieces - particularly a car chase in Dubai punctuated by a languid lion's presence - elevate the film somewhat, but Kung Fu Yoga's broadness is not so much engaging as merely ticking the many boxes.
Kung-Fu Yoga scratches fans' itch for no-nonsense, no-pretense Chan fare - in which he isn't second-banana to a Western star, or married to a director who thinks VFX are required to make Chan's stunts more impressive.
