Story:
The story of a group of highly skilled terrorists that
seek to steal the royal jewels on the opening night
of the exposition. One of the guests is Frankie the
famous kung fu movie star (wanna be Bruce Lee). Frankie's
bodyguard Lt. Kit Li (Jet Li) has a score to settle
with the terrorists, 2 years ago his wife and son were
killed by an explosion from a bomb planted by the leader
of the terrorist. During the night many people discover
that Frankie is not the superstar that the movie screen
shows him to be but luckly Kit Li is always there to
save him. Along with a police officer and a journalist
the four try to ruin the plans of the terrorists.
Review: This was a good story but its basically
another twist of the Die Hard movie concept. In general
the movie had an excellent mix of comedy coming from
the Frankie's character and action performed by Jet
Li. These two make an excellent duo, you'd expect
Jet Li to be the main star of the film but we found
that Frankie's (Jackie Cheung) performance to rival
Jet Li, he was basically the star of the movie. Also
the supporting cast were quite good, this goes for
both the good guys and bad guys.
The Kung Fu fights were very good but there weren't
that many of them, that is the main reason why this
film was classified as action and not kung fu. As
for the rest of the action it was excellent and there
were not scare to kill people, that includes children
and everything else. Even with all this killing there
is no direct camera shots of it, nor is it very bloody.
This is a good film for any fan of Jet Li or action
mixed with comedy. The subtitle are very clear (maybe
small to some people) in this movie, so you wont have
too much trouble understanding this movie.
