  • Typical late career Chan

    If you are a fan of Jackie Chan then you have probably already seen this film, if not and you are on the fence I sadly cannot give you a real reason to watch it other than the man himself being in it. Why? Well because simply put his is the only performance that is engaging and his is the only character you will care about. The story centres around a group of rail Road porters in Japanese occupied China, that by day work the rail Road loading baggage, moving freight and by night they turn into a rag tag group of revolutionaries performing minor acts of sabotage against the Japanese, one day something happens which leads to them planning their biggest one yet which will finally put a huge dent in the Japanese army's occupation. Each of the characters has their own motivation for fighting the Japanese and they are all explored to some degree, however many are very typical of this kind of film and lack any real resonance with the viewer as we have literally seen them a thousand times before, only one character is explored in any real depth and that is Jackie's character who has a genuinely tragic story which makes him the only character whose date you truly care about. Unengaging characters aside and onto the action. Being a Jackie Chan fronted ensemble film there are alot of characters that need screen time which means alot of set pieces to have them doing interesting stunts and great action sequences. Again, sadly it just doesn't deliver. Every stunt here you will have seen before, every move, every sequence, every interaction you will have seen done before and seen done better in previous Jackie Chan films. There are alot of set pieces but the majority of big ones are cgi infused blur fests that are heavy on the camera trickery and less on the genuine stunts which is more often than not the case with the majority of Jackie's latest films. If it wasn't a chan film I wouldn't be being nearly as harsh but because we all know how he is at his best, this lacklustre offering just doesn't cut it. When it does get back to real stunts and the JC stunt team then this film does shine, there a few inspired scenes like the one in a Japanese store house which involves bundles of explosives and chan with his accomplices bounding around on ropes while trying to steal said explosives and avoid guards. All in all its a pretty mediocre offering that will have a little something for long time chan fans but little more, at just over 2 hours as well its a bit of a stretch to watch, if it was never released it certainly wouldn't have hurt.
