1911: Fall Of The Last Empire

"1911" marks the milestone of Jackie Chan's 100th film, an epic tale of the "Fall Of The Last Empire." From the walls of the Forbidden City to the battlefields of China, the film details a key moment in modern Chinese history—the fall of the Qing Dynasty—and the violent rebellion that brought it down. With China split into warring factions and the starving citizens beginning to revolt, the ruling Qing court is building a powerful army to quash any rebellion. Revolutionary leader Huang Xing (Chan) decides he must act before the Qing army becomes too powerful...and leads an increasingly desperate series of violent uprisings against the powerful Qing court.
