Is anyone else looking forward to this film?

Inspired by the story of a real-life icon, an action-drama set during the late 19th century when China is shrouded under increasing internal turmoil and the imminent threat of foreign invasion. The biopic is based on the life of Chinese Martial Arts Legend, Huo Yuanjia (1869-1910)--the founder and spiritual guru of the Jin Wu Sports Federation--who became the most famous fighter in all of China at the turn of the 20th Century. Huo faced incredible personal tragedy but ultimately fought his way out of darkness and into history, forever defining himself at a pivotal tournament for the honor of his country and the true spirit of martial arts.

It most certainly will have martial arts hopefully on the scale of Hero and CTHD. This is going to be a great film.

Nah, it's not very good. It's been out in Asia for nearly 4 months now. The central aspect of the story is a jingoistic fable about China's strength. Hero, Crouching Tiger, and Flying Daggers are all much better.

I heard he wants to concentrate on improving his acting maybe he has had enough of those kind of roles.
