comment
The 2004 film adaptation of Jules Verne's Around the World in Eighty Days. It stars Jackie Chan, Steve Coogan and Cécile de France. The film is set in 19th-century Britain and centers on Phileas Fogg (Coogan), here reimagined as an eccentric inventor, and his efforts to circumnavigate the globe in 80 days. During the trip, he is accompanied by his Chinese valet, Passepartout (Chan). For comedic reasons, the film intentionally deviated wildly from the novel and included a number of anachronistic elements.The film is notable for being Arnold Schwarzenegger's last film before he took a hiatus from acting to become Governor of California.The film was nominated for two Golden Raspberry Awards: Worst Remake or Sequel and Worst Supporting Actor (for Arnold Schwarzenegger).

The Cameo: Arnold Schwarzenegger, Luke and Owen Wilson, Rob Schneider, Kathy Bates, Macy Gray, John Cleese and (thanks to Jackie) Hong Kong actors like Sammo Hung, Daniel Wu, and Karen Mok (although Karen portrays one of the main villains, not cameo). Richard Branson, the British entrepreneur and adventurer known (among other things) for his attempt to circumnavigate the world by balloon, has a cameo as the operator of the hot air balloon Fogg takes from Paris.

Bilingual Bonus: In the Chinese Jail scene, there's a man jailed alongside Passepartout, Fogg and Monique who's screaming something at the top of his lungs in Mandarin. Passepartout/Xing says that he's asking to be let out because he's bored. However, viewers who understand Mandarin will know that he's actually screaming "Let me out, my butt really itches!".

Five-Second Foreshadowing: Once the trio return to England, and only seconds away before their time is up, Lord Kelvin has them arrested and gloats that by the time they are released from jail, the wager will already be lost. The fact that he doesn't mention that they are supposedly just seconds away from losing foreshadows that, due to the timezone difference, the trio still have a day to spare.

Becoming the Mask: Passepartout/Lau Xing initially only used Fogg and (without Fogg's acknowledgement as he used other British lords to deliver the message) convinced him to accept the bet to travel around the world, so Lau Xing himself can go home to China. However, Lau Xing eventually grows respect for Fogg and chooses to help him win the bet.

Took a Level in Badass: Monique one-hit KOed General Fang. Granted, the Chinese villainess is already exhausted, but even Lau Xing addressed Monique as "the eleventh tiger" because of this. Fogg himself does try to be one to rescue Monique against Maggie Q's character in India. And with some luck, he actually managed to KOed her!

Hypocritical Humor: After meeting General Fang, Lord Kelvin diminishes the idea of women leading men, right before passing by the portrait of Queen Victoria. Upon reaching San Francisco, Phileas Fogg remarks how happy he is to be back "in civilization", all while the sound of gunfire, broken bottles, and women's screams can be heard nearby. When Phileas asks Lord Kelvin which proof he has that the former has robbed the bank of London, Kelvin retorts that they are in the Academy of Science, which means he doesn't have to proof anything.

Tantrum Throwing: After Lord Kelvin first learns that the Jade Buddha was stolen, he finishes his berating of Colonel Kitchener by tossing things at him, topping things off with a set of quill pens. Later in the same scene, after General Fang obliquely implies he was incompetent in guarding the Buddha while stating her intent to recover it for him, he tries to throw a quill at her as well, only for her to effortlessly catch it. Finally, towards the end of the film, a man delivers a message regarding Fogg's progress on the journey, beating a hasty retreat as soon as the message touches Kelvin's desk. Cue a scream of rage and a bunch of quills embedded in the door.

Hiding in a Hijab: The three protagonists did this in India (which was British colony at the time) after they discovered that they just became fugitive (thanks to Lord Kelvin finding out Fogg's "valet" was the bank robber). Only Monique managed to maintain the disguise as long as possible. Maggie Q's character also briefly disguised in one.

Historical Villain Upgrade: Lord Kelvin. The real Lord Kevlin was a physicist responsible for formulating the first and second laws of thermodynamics, discovering the concept of absolute zero temperature (and getting the resulting scale named after him to boot), and many other worthy scientific achievements. He received his knighthood for his work on the Transatlantic Telegraph Cable, including several inventions used in the project. The film turns him into a sniveling, conniving backstabber who attempts to stop Phineas Fogg out of little more than professional jealousy.
