"Emotionally powerful. Spectacular action. Jet Li dominates the drama whenever he's onscreen."

Derek Elley - Variety

"Jet Li shines in this elaborately choreographed, action-packed Chinese historical epic."

Miranda Siegal, New York Magazine

"'Warlords' represents another peak in the eye-opening rebirth of Eastern cinema."

Tom Huddleston, Time Out London

"A bloody epic that weaves political intrigue, obsessive ambition and human failings into a film that's never boring for a minute. Jet Li's performance is commendable."

Twitchfilm.net

"A SOARING, VISUALLY STUNNING BLOOD ANMD GUTS EPIC. It's a triumph from start to finish."

The Daily Mirror (UK)

"CINEMA DOESN'T GET MUCH BETTER THAN THIS. One of the best films I've seen out of China in quite a while."

"Critics Pick"

NY Magazine

"JET LI DOMINATES WHENEVER HE'S ONSCREEN."

Derek Elley, VARIETY

"Directors Peter Chan and Wai Man Yip have made what is easily one of the biggest, most epic stories in the history of modern Chinese cinema. The true story of a 19th century General Pang (Jet Li) and his blood brothers, is beautifully shot, incredibly moving, and has as much action as anyone could ever want."

About The Film

Set in the midst of war and political upheaval during the Taiping Rebellion of the 1860s, WARLORDS stars Jet Li as General Pang, who barely survives a brutal massacre of his fellow soldiers by playing dead, and joins a band of bandits led by Er Hu (Andy Lau) and Wu Yang (Takeshi Kaneshiro). After fighting back attackers from an helpless village, the three men take an oath to become "blood brothers," pledging loyalty to one another until death, but things quickly turn sour and the three men become embroiled in a web of political deceit, and a love triangle between Pang, Er Hu and a beautiful courtesan (Wu Jing-Lei).
