The viewing size is tiny and the resolution is set to SINA Crap-O-Vision but the first teaser has just arrived for Little Big Soldier, the new film produced by and starring Jackie Chan with up-and-comer Ding Sheng directing. As mentioned in the past, this is a Chinese production and not a Hollywood film and with Chan still giving a damn about his Chinese output, at least, this is definitely the Chan film that matters this year.
Sina's player often doesn't work for those around the globe so I've captured the videoo from there and put it in our own player below.It was the darkest of times in China, when ruthless warlords waged battles to satiate their endless aggression. Millions of lives perished, and those who survived had only two choices - kill or be killed.
The battalions of warring states Liang and Wei collided in a bloodbath that lasted from dawn until dusk. Only two men were left standing - a FOOT SOLDIER from Liang (Jackie Chan) and the rival GENERAL from Wei (Wang Leehom). The Soldier survived because he is an expert in playing dead, with a device strapped on his body which protruded like an arrowhead for added realism.
The Soldier captured the wounded General, hoping to use the enemy as his ticket to freedom - by handing the General to the Liang warlord, the Soldier could be honorably discharged and return home to his peaceful life. The young General, though taken captive, was condescending towards the Soldier. The two men were often at loggerheads during the long and winding journey.
