Synopsis
Around the World in 80 Days (2004) is a globe-trotting adventure comedy you can watch online on iFILM. London inventor Phileas Fogg bets the head of the Royal Academy of Science that he can circle the planet in exactly eighty days.
His partners in the dash are Passepartout, played by Jackie Chan, and a spirited French painter named Monique, played by Cécile de France. The three of them race by hot-air balloon, horseback and fist-fight through Istanbul, India, Hong Kong and the American frontier, with rivals hot on their trail. Steve Coogan's Fogg holds the whole reckless scheme together on stubbornness alone, while Jim Broadbent fumes back in London.
Directed by Frank Coraci and loosely drawn from the Jules Verne novel, the film leans on Jackie Chan's signature stunt work and a parade of cameos from John Cleese, Owen Wilson and Kathy Bates. It is built for a family movie night: silly, fast and full of motion. Stream Around the World in 80 Days (2004) online on iFILM.
