Ratings and reviews

there is too much going on in this movie and it is not all that interesting - I would not recommend renting it. Jet Li has much finer work in other films and they probably won't cost you 7 dollars.

The action was quite satisfying. The special effects were hilarious, but still, always fun watching stuff fly around of its own volition along with ridiculous (and ridiculously awesome) martial arts. The plot was decent, a couple good twists at the end made me want to watch it again, though I don't think it is worth watching twice.

Total POS. What a waste of my time and money. Ridiculous from the first to the last minute of the movie, also wasn't helpful that it was subtitled.
