When Chon Wang speaks Mandarin or Cantonese to his fellow guards, the original subtitles often skip the literal translation entirely. Instead, you see something like: [Speaking Chinese] or [Instructs in native language] . This is infuriating for a film where verbal misunderstandings drive the plot.
: If you cannot find a dedicated "forced" file, you can download a full English subtitle file and open it in a text editor (like Notepad). You can then manually delete the English-to-English lines, leaving only the translated foreign dialogue, though this is time-consuming and may contain spoilers.

Users on platforms like Reddit and Disney+ have frequently reported that Mandarin scenes are either not translated at all or only show labels like (speaking Mandarin) . This occurs because:
This feature ensures that viewers only see subtitles for dialogue that is in English, while leaving English dialogue untransformed. This is particularly useful for the first six minutes of Shanghai Noon , which take place in the Forbidden City and are mostly in Mandarin.
Think of the scene where Chon Wang is held captive and curses his captors in Mandarin. The bad subtitle says: [Swears in Chinese] . A great subtitle would translate: "Your mother wears armor made of pig fat." This is hilarious because Roy doesn't understand it, but you do. You become the insider.
