Anton Bitel Little White Lies 11/02/2010
There is epic action and adventure in this film, to be sure, and some humour too - but it is all directed towards a conclusion whose devastating impact is not even undone by the touches of mawkishness that get us there. Go to Full Review
Derek Malcolm London Evening Standard 10/06/2010
3/5
A better screenplay, tougher editing and less commercial direction might have made the tale more substantial and even funnier -- as it is, Chan keeps it all going. Go to Full Review

2/5
Jackie Chan has made plenty of cracking films in his native tongue, but Little Big Soldier, a rambunctiously tragicomic martial epic set during China's Warring States period, is regrettably not one of them. Go to Full Review

3/5
Chan puts his heart and soul into the part of Big Soldier, and it's a reminder that there is more to the actor than Hollywood cinemagoers may have witnessed. Go to Full Review
Fred Topel Screen Junkies 04/13/2011
Amusing but, never amazing. There's no ladder twirling, conveyor belt sticking or cashier slot jumping through. Go to Full Review

8/10
It does not, perhaps, try to do very much, but all the things it does try, it achieves with glowing perfection. Go to Full Review

Alain M 09/19/2023 it was pretty ok, but trying to keep the comedy of Jacky Chan while also trying to set in a dramatic depiction of a journey just doesn't seem to work here. See more 05/09/2022 Jackie Chan throws rocks and embodies an older version of his past self. the last punch and gag piece in recent memory that he's done. See more 06/13/2020 Fantastic movie. Great acting by Jackie chan ang great location. See more 04/15/2020 This movie is absolutely amazing, one Jackie's best movies I've seen in my opinion, you want drama, comedy, fighting, ... Everything is there, a very good story, at last it sulrely is better than most Bollywood s*** that we see everytime, this movie is unique and highly recommend, I've watched many many jackie films and chinese movies but this is better.... See more 01/02/2019 I've been on a Jackie Chan binge recently and must say, this is one of his finest pieces of work. It's a quality production, very well acted, has a great story, has action but isnt a stereotyped kung fu movie by any means. It is a believable drama with believable characters but still has interludes of comedy with out the cheesiness of his earlier work. Chemistry between the 3 main leads is excellent and Chan brings a particular depth to this performance... a bit like he did in Karate Kid. I was especially touched by the boat scene and the very end - OMG. If I had to find a complaint - it would be to question what the female character really brought to the story. Not much, really. Liked this movie so much I went back and bought it after renting it. I'll be watching this story again. Wish Chan and made more like it. See more 09/02/2017 Excellent. This is Chan's best work. Epic adventure, spectacular fights, some humor that seems natural, an unexpected ending. I loved it. See more Read all reviews
