Plot Summary
Martial arts legend Jackie Chan stars in this mystical, fantasy adventure as an intrepid archaeologist, Jack, who sets out on an adventure that would lead to the greatest discovery in Chinese history. In 221 BC Qin Shihuang - the first emperor of China - started to build a royal tomb for himself despite his infatuation with immortality. Through the prodigious endeavors of more than 700,000 forced labourers, the mausoleum was completed 37 years later. Legend has it that to ensure utmost secrecy, all those who worked on the project were buried alive with the dead emperor. Over the next 2,000 years historians, tomb-raiders and happy-go-lucky adventurers alike had been honing in on the royal treasure, however, no one had ever succeeded in location the entrance to the mausoleum...until now. When an ancient sword and a magical gemstone are uncovered in India the booty leads Jack (Chan) and an ambitious scientist to the mausoleum. Through a series of strange and provocative dreams, Jack sees himself reincarnated as Meng Yi, a general who fell for the first emperor's beautiful consort. In order to solve the mystery behind his dream, Jack begins a quest for truth which ultimately gets him lost between the past and the present. Featuring Bollywood actress, Mallika Sherawat (Kis Kis Ki Kismat, Guru).

Rotten: Embodies the high-stakes risks inherent in switching between multiple genres, particularly considering the story's central point is nearly lost in the process.

something diffrent
personally i enjoyed it! its a diffrent type of film from jackie then we in the west are use to. the effects are cheesey BUT the story more then makes up for it!..should be made available to rent for the not so hardcore chan man fans! =D but deff check it out for an entertaining adventure flick!
dubbed and cut
I really like the movie...but this version is poorly dubbed and has been edited differently than the theater release. If I had known this before buying I wouldn't have paid...I want my money back so I can go get the full version of the movie.
Can we get this for rent???
It would be great to get this movie for rent, i like Jackie Chan but I would not want to buy this movie, so let us rent it.
