Title: Jackie Chan's THE MYTH Post by: indianasmith on November 10, 2007, 10:26:34 PM WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!! I just finished watching this one with my wife and was majorly impressed! I had never heard of it before, just saw it on the shelf as a Chan flick we'd never watched, and was amazed at its quality. I mean, Jackie as a Chinese general in the army of Emperor Chi'in in 224 BC? Wielding a sword and actually KILLING people? Massive army battles in full ancient gear that AREN'T rendered in CGI? A visit to the weightless eternal paradise where the Emperor's immortal concubine awaits the return of her beloved general? Jackie's sidekick kissing a mummy? You've got to see this one to believe it!
This movie ROCKED!!!!!!!!! Anyone else seen it? Title: Re: Jackie Chan's THE MYTH Post by: Jim H on November 11, 2007, 08:44:41 PM I've seen some of it. Been meaning to watch the rest. Some inspired sequences and good action (especially for a Chan vehicle this late, it came out in 2005). Storyline seems pretty flaky and Chan isn't believable as the old general, but still good.
