I personally think it had potential had it took its story more seriously and allow its characters and world to build, it would have been received much better. A guilty pleasure of mines.

  • @dougdeveloper8850
    @dougdeveloper8850 9 หลายเดือนก่อน +5

    Okay this will sound like a thesis. This isn't a great movie by any stretch but was very enjoyable. The film had many things going for it:
    - Aaliyah and Jet Li are both very likable actors and had great chemistry. It's a minor touch but I like how Jet Li was shorter than Aaliyah. Goes against what we usually see in movie couples. I think part of Jet Li's charm is that he isn't built like a leading man, so he's like an underdog in a way.
    - Anthony Anderson was funny to me, sorry. "Sometimes you win. And dim sum you lose" 🤣
    - Jet Li calling Anthony Anderson meatball was also funny.
    - Fight choreography was unrealistic sure, but a lot of fun, to me.
    - I like how we see Asian and black gangs interact with each other. Something we don't see too often so it was refreshing.
    - And this film was also self-aware. It knows what it is and pulls no punches (no pun intended).
    Also, it's not fair to compare Jackie Chan to Jet Li. Jet Li is known more for his fighting style, and as a martial artist, while Jackie Chan, albeit also a good fighter, relies on creativity and stunts. Both are awesome btw

    Around that era, Kiss of The Dragon was my favorite work Jet Li did. This was a decent film back then.
    Also that intro and the soundtrack were amazing.
