Allmost a year ago, i accidentally switched on a russian channel, that was showing a movie called " The Myth" .
Chan stars as a character named after himself, in this case Dr. Jack Chan, an archaeologist plagued by chronic dreams about a Qin era general pledged to protect a Korean princess being sent to the Qin Emperor as a concubine. His dreams have no relationship to his everyday life and yet Jack can’t shake the feeling that they mean something deeper and has grown obsessed with them, so much so that his girlfriend left him when he started calling out the dream princess’ name in the night. When his long time friend William asks him to help research ancient rumors and legends dealing with gravity defying acts. Chan is swept into a series of events(fight in a holy temple, he allmost drowns, he has to run away from the police in an indian city etc)Chan also stars as General Meng Yi, the figure in his dreams. Meng is a loyal soldier who falls in love with the woman he is pledged to protect and deliver. Meng never crosses any lines with the princess but he falls deeply in love and pledges himself to her, setting up a story of unrequited love leading to tragedy.
The movie ends quite sadly, i was shocked when the movie ended, im not goign to spoil the end for you though!
