"As the mother was breathing her last breaths, Zhao informed his mother of Lu Chan's potential. Right before she died, she told Lu Chan that he only had to do one thing well: kung fu. Many years later and Lu Chan is revealed to be a loyal and skilled soldier of the Divine Truth Cult, a rebel force against the Emperor. This is because it was revealed that the entertainer Zhao was actually a general of the Cult, looking for any potential recruits to his army in disguise. It is also shown that Zhao continuously abused Lu Chan's special power to win battles, even though it has proven to be harmful to his health and will eventually lead to his death. The Cult's doctor informs Lu Chan of his impending death and that the only way to prevent it is to go to Chen Village and learn Chen-style kung fu from Grandmaster Chen Chang Xiang"
This is the acting debut of the lead actor which is quite impressive. Since he did a great job at playing this character you would have never thought this was his debut. I enjoyed the film it was a mixture of comedy, history, martial arts, romance, and war. It is really an interesting film, I even enjoyed the short details of every actor that plays an important character in the film. It was a nice touch especially for someone who doesn't recognize Chinese stars. I suggest this film to those that like good comedic marital art films.
3/5
