Jackie Chan mixes up martial arts and sci-fi in new movie

He isn’t Jackie Chan for nothing. The martial arts superstar continues to bring fresh material to the big screen as he injects a dose of science fiction in his latest action movie, “Bleeding Steel.”

Opening today in the Philippines, Bleeding Steel tells the story of Special Agent Lin Dong (Chan) who is torn between his family and his duty. The movie begins as his phone rings from the hospital informing him that his daughter who’s suffering from leukemia is in critical condition. He rushes to her but while on the way gets another phone call, this time from a co-worker, relaying the details of an urgent and dangerous mission to which he’s been assigned.
