I was optimistic after I saw the trailer, but after seeing the movie itself, my impression turned into the opposite. I have to say that the different aspects in the movie must have sounded pretty good in theory, but their execution in the film was pretty poor.
The dialogue is at times pretty short and seems rushed. Scenes are to intertwined, often a scene is thrown in lasting just a few seconds and about two sentences, and without a pause to soak it in you're hit with the next one. It just wasn't convincing enough.
They just throw the story at you without initial explanations, and while in some movies that's played well, in this one it clearly isn't. Furthermore, having Jackie in it, I must say the fighting scenes, although good, were pretty rare. I know that in his recent movies Jackie tries to put story and drama above simple action, and his performance was great, but it just wasn't enough.
I know my comment sounds pretty negative, and the movie isn't completely terrible. For me it simply doesn't have any rewatch value and is under the level of Jackies other movies. All in all, I can't give this movie more than a 2/5.
Funny..? Its sad!!
Well the story is okay but the fact the subs are awful spoils the effort the director is trying to achieve. Star Wars you may ask.. if you watch it, the subs read as if YO.DA is narrating. Crazy as it sounds the subs are directly translated, so you can learn Chinese if you like. Unfortunately no good for Jackie of the director.
Nice to see Mr Jackie Chan in this Action adventure film.
I must say that I do enoy a good sword and sandals film.
The only down side to this film was the English sub titles as they were fast on the screen which could be on times confusing!
45% rated this film.
55% rated if the English subs were better!
