I'm sure if this film was released on Blu-Ray and you are watching it on a 46" 1080p HDTV, you won't sleep off !
BTW, the reviews are mixed on this one. Not all reviews are bad. Some say its one of the finest martial arts film ever made - it has a very fine line between drama, action and two universal heroes. Metacritic.com, got some give it full 10/10 !! |

This movie sux.....
the only thing that kept me from falling asleep was Jet Li's and Jackie's kungfu. I must say though, i'm surprised that Jet Li's english is better than Jackie, pronounciation wise.. Jackie's english is a bit hard to understand... |

it is a great movie if u view it from the aspect of the western..
but most of us already have high expecting on kungfu movie, the eastern style, this movie is different from that.. afterall.. it worths the ticket price, or else, just watch it on Wednesday.. |

Finally, got someone really knows how to watch and appreciate the arts work of the movieI like Mad Detective too Why would nobody think of that in the first place?

Just came back from the cinema...
Great Storyline, Great Cast, Great Action... almost flawless... Just bad language selection... Im fine with the white boy... im ok with the present that speaks English... But it would be better if he speak mandarin in the past... Anyone can speak good mandarin if they really learn... Hope they will release a mandarin version, only mandarin in the past... Just so near till im willing to get the DVD... too bad... felt wasted the movie... 9.5/10... |

it will be much better if only Jackie Chan and the boy speak english, while the others speak mandarin, so Jackie Chan has to do some translator work.. that will be quite funny and nice.
