The story of a farmer forced into conscription, who has been looking to get out of the army ever since.

You will probably find "Little Big Soldier" entertaining as long as you know what you will expect. Anyone who thinks that Jackie Chan in this movie will be kicking butt throughout will be disappointed. In fact, he only has ONE scene where he displays his trademark expert fighting skills, and that sequence is a dream sequence! His character here is more of a normal person. Still, there's still plenty to entertain audiences. Chan does well playing a more normal person who was drafted into a war he didn't want to participate in. There is plenty of action and comic relief, though there is a dark undertone throughout, including a clear anti-war message.If there is anything to object about the movie, I would say that it is the cinematography. For some reason, the movie was photographed in a way that has all the colors washed out, and it doesn't look very attractive. Fortunately the positive attributes found in the movie compensate for the ugly visual look.

little big soldier is a solid action comedy for sure, but after reading loads of reviews saying how this was jackie chans best movie in years, i went in expecting a masterpiece, and i didn't get it, the movie looks expensive and is very nice to look at, and some of the action scenes are really top notch, but anybody expecting a fight fest like the usaul chan fare will be very dissopionted. as chan is very much the underdog here, and really isn't a good fighter. the comedy here is funny, and it has an ending that will be shocking, and surprising. the movie has a lot to recommend, and it is very well made, but its far from perfect, and at times it drags, and there are long bursts without action. never the less this is still a decent jackie chan movie, and is definitely worth a watch

What the hell is wrong with filmmakers these days? WHY must the hero always die? I hate those kind of movies, it automatically makes the movie awful in my eyes. Jackie, i love you man, but seriously, if this picks up, all my respect for you disappears like the garbage into the garbage-chute. The story was amazing, the stunts and fighting scenes as well. And yet, it HAD to be ruined by the main character dieing? "It gives depth"? Bullshit it does, it gives a small hint of cheesy story writing that almost stink like they did not know where to go with the story. What next? Will Lu Bu die and then awake 3 days later and go to heaven?

Its been a long time since there was a Jackie movie with fun,story and good direction.The movie "Little big soldier" stands up in terms of Jackie's Action scenes, his wonderful moves,and mannerism.The movie would have gained critical acclaim if it was made in English language. Guess they wanted to make a historic/Traditional movie.Nevertheless, The movie is good. Those who were disappointed after watching an old Jackie in "the karate kid" will be really happy to see him in this movie, with a great new load of stuff.Waiting for the next action packed Jackie's movie in English.Hope he pairs up to do another Rush Hour 4 or some cool movies where he doesn't drink much
