5/10
A Stock Action Film
14 July 2019
I rewatch this all the time because it is just so cheesy and over the top. Which makes it so great! I like how the love story between Jet Li and the female lead is evenly baked. It feels well earned and I really believe they fall in love with one another by the film's end. The romantic build up and tension is nicely constructed. The action scenes are fun and blockbuster-ish. The plot is over the top. The villain is over the top. But that's great, too. The comedic side characters and even the kid are great additions as well. It's just a overall fun movie to buy into. The ending is also the best, most corniest closing ever...and I love it!
