Action Hero MoviesVanguard tells the story of a well resourced private security company specialising in VIP protection, headed up by Jackie Chan, on a mission to protect a VIP and his daughter from some equally well resourced & determined criminals.
Although not always concise, this movie does contain some good action, good actors and a good concept — and has a good pace in patches. Unfortunately though, it is watered down with too much boring filler dialog between the good bits.
By the end of the first half, and by the very end, this movie consistently warrants a score of Above Average.
Jackie took a step down in this movie — he had a lot less screen time than usual, and gave lots of time to the young guns in his crew — they were all pretty good too, but none of them strikingly memorable.
