SnoReptilePlenty Memorable, crazy movie

Hattie I didn’t really have many expectations going into the movie (good or bad), but I actually really enjoyed it. I really liked the characters and the banter between them.

SnoopyStyle Liu Jian (Jet Li) is a Chinese secret agent arriving in Paris to take down a Chinese drug lord. His French contact is vice squad leader Inspector Richard (Tchéky Karyo). Only Richard is dirty and tries to frame him for the drug lord's killing. Jessica Kamen (Bridget Fonda) is an American farm girl forced into prostitution by Richard. He's holding her daughter in an orphanage. Liu Jian managed to grab the video tape showing Richard shooting the drug lord with his confiscated gun. Then by chance, he runs into Jessica again.This is a Luc Besson production and it has a lot of his touches. Bridget Fonda is back and they even use the laundry chute. It's got some fun Besson-like action. It helps a lot to have Jet Li fighting. The acupuncture needles are a little bit much. The fight in the office with the Twins is amazing. Tchéky Karyo is great at being the villain. The biggest problem I have is the big coincidence. It's beyond ridiculous and rings such a false note. With such a big city, she's hooking right in front of the store.

Robert J. Maxwell I'd always been curious about Jet Li, having heard so much about him and was looking forward to an exciting action movie, what with the presence of the alluring Bridget Fonda, something along the lines of "Point of No Return" or "The Bourne Identity." But the experience relieved me of any beliefs I might have had that I was in any sense "with it." I thought it stank, except as an exhibit of action choreography.The plot doesn't really matter except as a predicate for the brutality. The good guys are quiet, self contained, and handsome or beautiful. The bad guys are thoroughly evil, and they look and sound evil.The bad people outnumber the good by several hundred to one or two, but that's not important. Jet Li, a presentable Chinese actor/director/writer, knows how to demolish them without panting after an encounter.A goon is about to shoot Jet Li in a pool room. Before he can get off a round, Jet Li kicks a pool ball out of its pocket with one foot, and with the other foot he kicks the pool ball hard and unerringly it bashes in the goon's forehead at a distance of a dozen or so feet. There are hints that Jet Li has supernatural powers. If he's surrounded by evil doers who glance away for a second, he's disappeared by the time they look back. In one scene he seems to outrun a bullet.Jet Li is an evocative name, even if it's not real, suggesting speed and power. Baron von Münschhausen is a name to conjure with too.It's a comic book transferred to the screen, only it's better than a comic book because you don't have to bother reading any words. You don't even have to know how to read. I can understand why this might be fun if you were watching it -- or one of its many imitations -- for the first time, and if you were in the proper state of mind. But I can also understand why the majority of high school seniors can't place the American Civil War in its correct half century and why most of us can't name our own Congressman.How dumb can you get?

varghesejunior I really loved this movie...It's even better than Romeo must die.Story is about a China Cop who is sent to France to find a heroin smuggler with the help of french police but soon gets implicated in the murder of the criminal by the corrupt Frenchmen who themselves are part of a crime syndicate involving drugs , murder and flesh trade.The story by Jet li is really good, the action sequences are awesome and show Jet li in his best ever performances, fast moving and active yet humble and simple.The film is fast-paced and thrilling, and will keep you at the edge of your seat for 1.5 hours Watch it...you won't regret it.

Charles Herold (cherold) This movie makes the interesting decision to tell you nothing about its story for at least the first 20 minutes, which is nothing but a bravura sequence of martial arts action that is highly enjoyable even though you have no idea what's going on. After that opening sequence the movie tells you more-or-less what's going on, but some plot points aren't explained in the slightest, most notably what exactly Bridget Fonda has to do with anything.This is one of those movies where dozens of people die without seeming to trigger any investigations; you can't imagine anything in this movie really going down the way it does. But the action is terrific, the bad guy is entertainingly, ridiculously evil (he does everything except kick a puppy) and over all I liked it.
