Much better than I expected. Then again I went into the theater expecting utter shite. Definately rentworthy.. probably not worth the movie ticket especially if you have to pay for someone other than yourself.

I think Hollywood has a lot to learn when it comes to this type of film. I never have high expectations when either Chow Yun-Fat or Jackie Chan do a Hollywood movie but always look forward to their Chinese ones.

Chow yun fat unfortunately is not any more of a martial artist than myself. He has been in some really kickass gunslinger movies though.

I had this a week before it was at the theater.....it was OK.

I thought the plot was weak, the martial arts were lacking, not really sure where they were going with it....but worth watching.
