Vanguard Ratings & Reviews
San Francisco Chronicle
Mick LaSalle
For the most part, this film has the disadvantages of Chinese action films, without the advantages. That is, it overdoes the action and it's short on character, without attaining the manic, wild heights of Hong Kong cinema of the 1980s and early '90s.
New York Post
Johnny Oleksinski
Pretty dull and not much fun.
RogerEbert.com
Simon Abrams
Chan's latest star vehicle didn't need to be anything more than a good work of propaganda, but it's not even compelling on those terms.
AV Club
Ignatiy Vishnevetsky
There's no reason why a movie that features Jackie Chan, lion attacks, and machete-wielding henchmen on Jet Skis should be as boring as Vanguard.
MovieFreak.com
Sara Michelle Fetters
It's a lackluster, inanely plotted throwback that relies far too heavily on ineffective digital effects.
Slant Magazine
Pat Brown
The film is an uncanny reflection of the jingoism that Hollywood has been wrapping in glossy spectacle and exporting to foreign markets for decades.
Austin Chronicle
Matthew Monagle
Even a forgetful Jackie Chan movie is still a Jackie Chan movie worth seeking out.
Variety
Dennis Harvey
The movie might've flown as a larky fantasy-adventure whatsit if it possessed any self-aware wit.
New York Times
Glenn Kenny
"Vanguard" is... in line with [the] brand of amiable action mayhem Chan pioneered in 1980s vehicles like "Police Story" and "Project A," only not as good.
The Hollywood Reporter
Elizabeth Kerr
Vanguard may attract the ultra-bored and/or stir crazy and devoted Chan fans, but those expecting to see the blazing acrobatics of his earlier work will be intensely disappointed.

Sean Chandler
While this isn't classic Jackie Chan, it is a fast paced and fun action film for fans of the genre.
Common Sense Media
Jeffrey M. Anderson
Chan's globetrotting action movie features a few brief, impressive car chases and other light moments, but it's largely weighed down by poor writing, bland villains, and a nonsensical plot.
The Maine Edge
Allen Adams
This movie defies genre not by seamlessly blending, but by jarringly overstuffing - forget scene by scene, you barely know what kind of movie you're watching minute by minute.
The Newnan Times-Herald
Jonathan W. Hickman
... fans of martial arts films do get some amusing set-pieces.
Bowling Green Daily News
Micheal Compton
Vanguard is never dull, it's just really not that good. Chan and his fans deserved better.
Cinemalogue
Todd Jorgenson
Chan still handles his fair share of physical stunts in this otherwise lackluster action vehicle, which misses the energy and flair of his previous collaborations with director Stanley Tong.

Jaby Koay
Overall it was a really really fun package... but I really, really would have liked to have seen more martial arts stuff Jackie Chan stuff, fun goofy martial arts action.
KKFI-FM (Kansas City)
Russ Simmons
It's ridiculous and absolutely action packed.
Reel Rundown
Chris Sawin
Vanguard is over complicated with a light tone, silly antics, solid gold cars, and Jackie Chan using John Cena's attitude adjustment wrestling maneuver. It has a few decent moments buried within this shiny gold turd of an action film.

I was just floored by how confidently they moved.
