Jackie Chan as Huang Xing: the fearless resistance leader and military genius, who opposed a 20,000-strong Imperial Army during the 1908 Guang Xi Uprising with only 200 men. As military commander to legendary revolutionary leader, Sun Yat-sen, he will lead an impoverished and vastly outnumbered rebel army against the Emperor's elite Royal Forces in a battle that will change the course of history.

Jackie Chan wanted to film it honestly and as convincingly as possible, as it’s about a rather crucial moment in the history of China. But the result is so bland and boring that it won’t convince even the world’s worst dictator of how China should write its history. It looks nice, but the action is slow, and the dialogs won’t mean much to the Czech audience. I wanted a film made in an interesting way that would not be boring and that’s exactly what I didn’t get. Seen based on the Challenge Tour 2015.

From a historical perspective, it's definitely an interesting moment in Chinese history, and it's presented quite well. I think from a filmmaking standpoint, the movie is visually appealing; it's qualitatively epic and well-stylized. However, despite that, the film feels dull, and I can't help but feel that considering the subject matter, it was approached in a rather lackluster way.
