Factual error: The first Kinetoscope (arcade of 'personal movie viewers') was opened in 1894 and the first motion picture studio was located in New Jersey. There is no way that they would have known enough about motion pictures in 1887 to go into them, let alone go to Hollywood to do so. And the use of the word 'movie' is at least twenty years too early.
Shanghai Knights (2003)
Ending / spoiler
Directed by: David Dobkin
Starring: Jackie Chan, Owen Wilson, Aaron Taylor-Johnson, Donnie Yen, Aidan Gillen, Tom Fisher
Lin kills Wu Chow. Lord Rathbone falls off Big Ben. Chon, Roy and the inspector are knighted. The inspector is (Sir) Arthur Conan Doyle; he decides it's time to retire from Scotland Yard and start writing stories about a certain famous detective. The homeless kid is Charlie Chaplin. The secret message that Chon's father wrote is that family is very important and that he will always be with him (his son) in spirit (stuff like that). Chon and Roy head for the U.S. and Roy is interested in starring in motion pictures... and Charlie joins them (stowaway on their carriage).

Roy: So what are we gonna do? Come on, think! I'm not going to an English prison. With my feathery blond hair and Chon's athletic build, they'll try to make us the bell of the ball.
Trivia: The portrait of the young man under which Fann Wong hides was used again in another Jackie Chan film - "Rush Hour 3." This time, an assasin throws a knife atJackie and hits the portrait instead.
