Little Big Soldier (Blu-ray + DVD Combo) Review



Synopsis: Set during China s war period, Little Big Soldier is the story of a soldier (Jackie Chan) and a general (Wang Leehom) who come from opposing states and also have very much opposing views on the war and the world. Jackie Chan in one of his finest performances plays a soldier from Liang, who ultimately survives the war by playing dead. Lee Hom Wang plays a general from Wei, who is wounded fighting for his country. A painful yet comical journey commences when the soldier decides to kidnap the general and bring him back to his state in the high hopes of collecting a reward. When the unlikely duo is confronted by danger, they quickly learn that they must join forces in order to survive!

Review: Little Big Soldier is a period film that was produced over in China under the title Da Bing Xiao Jiang.  This film is a fantastic feat for Jackie Chan, who not only produced and wrote this great action-drama, but also stars in it.  This is without a doubt Jackie's best film in years and it really shows off his great acting prowess.  I haven't enjoyed a Chan film this much in a long time.  It has just enough humor to make it charming, but enough action and serious drama to make it a great period film.

The special features on this set include: Bonus Footage, Trailers, Jackie Chan's Music Video, The Making Of and English Dub.

Interest Range: Action, Drama
