Memorable, crazy movie
Best movie ever!
As Good As It Gets
Entertaining from beginning to end, it maintains the spirit of the franchise while establishing it's own seal with a fun cast
I'm sure the story line was good, and based on other reviews it's about a time in the history of the Silk Road. I would actually enjoy a historical drama and usually love anything Jackie Chan does... but the script was so forced and bad, just can think of better word. Both Jackie Chan and John Cusack are good actors but this was a horrible train wreck and I could not continue watching... I even tried a 2nd time when it was on again. I hope Jackie makes more historical movies but hope he gets better writers.
The movie was totally awesome, i love all Jackie Chan movies and this one is the best movie thank to Jackie for still working for fans.Dragon blade movie has fantastic graphics and excellent stunts and it is really good movie. Dragon Blade is beautifully staged and choreographed. For those who ever wondered what it would be like to see John Cu sack and Jackie Chan engage in a fight , here is "Dragon Blade.Just about everyone seems to get slashed, carved up or skewered, and vengeance rains down upon all.Handsome production design and sweeping battle vistas lend a touch of class, with Chan directing the action scenes.
I love Jackie Chan and for me he is one of the few Martial arts actors who was almost as talented as Bruce Lee (although in a more comedic way) But why Jackie has taken to making these silly over the top movies that they seem to churn out now is beyond me. All of these Chinese epic style period war movies are pretty much all the same and if you have seen one you have seen them all.They are over long, confusing and boring.John Cusack is pretty convincing, but Adrian Brody is his usual useless self. He is never convincing and for me he has pretty much ruined every movie he has been in. He never looks or acts the part and why he is used so much is a mystery to me.I found myself hoping this movie would improve as it went along but it never did.
This is the worst movie I have seen all year. It runs an hour too long, is padded with useless battle scenes and the plot jumps around so much no one can tell what's going on from one scene to the next. The named actors are terrible, the lines stilted an the relationships formed are those classical of bad movies with quaint stereotypes. Give this one a miss, take back your life, take back your Saturday night, no one should have to sit through this rubbish. The entire high tech flashback container for the action makes no sense and when we return it continues to provide no answers as to why any of this was relevant, useful or entertaining. Who were that young Chinese couple anyway, why were they there, why am I watching this!
