First things first: this Around The World In 80 Days has only a passing acquaintance with the Jules Verne novel. It has even less to do with the Oscar-winning 1956 version starring David Niven and, er, Cantiflas. So if you think the story is about a Victorian adventurer who traverses the earth, you're wrong. It's really about a Chinese thief from a remote village whose future depends on the safe return of a priceless statue. It's a Jackie Chan picture, pure and simple. Glad we cleared that one up.
