Not a bad movie, but could have been better.

The story was about hope, dreams, love, friendship. How people can fight for it, but when they get to much power or setback it also can corrupt them.

It was lucky that Jackie Chan plays in it, because his acting made the movie a bit better. The overall acting was ok, but nog great.
The movie was a bit messy.
I would not watch it again.
