Also they unironically did this plot in this wierd ass jackie chan movie

Including the part about the evil Gerry Adams (played by pierce brosnan)

Peirce Brosnan is the only Brtsh person who looks cool enough to play Gerry Adams.

That movie was fucking weird. It looked like they changed script halfway through and suddenly you had a Jackie Chan movie rather than the way more interesting Nothern Ireland / IRA movie that the first half was about.

Also when I watched it while visiting my parents, I had to restrain myself from singing the IRA songs, since the movie doesn't really make them out to be the good guys and my parents are mega libs.

whenever China co produces with a western country it always gets weird as fuck

Usually the westerners are cocky meatheads and the Chinese characters are like sort of moralistic and preachy. The clashing of the two ideologies usually makes the tone very weird.
