...and he did shoot a lot of people, so it was the action-packed kind of movie you've come to expect from him (I read rumors about there being a movie where he didn't shoot someone!). But it was also a 'who is the bad guy, really?' kind of movie that kept you guessing and wondering.
The ending was, in a lot of ways, pretty unresolved. You have an idea of what happened - perhaps - but there was also a little bit of wiggle room. It's not completely clear (I can't say much else without giving away too much plot!). So if you need a very clear-cut ending, with no dangling strings, this movie will drive you crazy. If you like that little bit of 'what if?', then this movie is great.
Mostly it was a very violent shoot'em up action thriller, nothing more, nothing less. Forgettable, but fun while you're watching it. I'd recommend it to people who like mindless action flicks.

JetLi and Jason- what a combination, their engrossing (film) personalities and their acting skills make this an enjoyable action flick.

Jason Statham...LOVE HIM! Jet Li...LOVE HIM! I picked this up and thought....how could this go wrong. Obviously, I was disappointed. What could have been a great action/martial arts movie was tepid. As someone else mentioned Jet Li had little spark, which is unusual for him, and when/if you see this the twist will give you pause. He should have been angry, rightous, but I didn't get any of that.
Statham had some moments, and I will say the ending irked me being a fan of his, but the last five minutes of the movie...just seemed to pat.
If you like Statham see Crank. A Li fan see Unleashed, BUT if you have a few hours and are bored, you could do worse.

Ok. am a big Jason Statham fan and a Jet Li fan also, but the movie started off crapy and it didn't get good til mid end. Then they gave it a really crappy ending. Its quite a dissapointment for me. For anyone who wants to buy this movie and havn't seen it yet,RENT IT. am sure you wouldn't want to own it after you watched it.

Caveat #1: I love action films. Caveat #2: This is not a martial arts film.
Which is fine with me--I love action films, regardless of what kind of action it is. Well, some action films. This is one.
After an assassin named Rogue killed his partner and his partner's wife and child, finding Rogue is federal agent John Crawford's (Jason Statham) raison d'etre.
Meanwhile, Rogue's (Jet Li) purpose is a little less straightforward. Presumably working for the Triad, it becomes clear that he's manipulating the Triad into an all-out war with the Yakuza.
So basically, it's tailor-made for me: lots of action, a intriguing mystery (why is Rogue causing a war?), some nice eye-candy (Jason Statham), and a couple of really good twists.
