I’m hardly going to defend this movie but there were a couple of visually arresting scenes. I really liked the look of the brief chase/fight in the oversize pipes and there were some good bits with the revolving door in the big showdown. The lighting and camera work here were so much more interesting than any other scenes in the movie that I wonder if someone else directed them.

I couldn’t agree more. This was an astonishingly bad film with zero redeeming aspects. It was such a depressing experience to sit through this film. It amazes me that anyone, at any point in the process, thought any aspect of the film would be a good idea. I love Jet Li and he has made excellent English language films (Kiss of the Dragon being my favorite and I think it is in fact a good film) and cannot help but wonder, like you, why Jet Li is making films like Cradle 2 the Grave and War. So very depressing.
