Truly awful
I didn't expect this movie to be top class but at least I had hopes for it be pretty entertaining. It turned out to be one of the worst movies I have seen in a long time.
Perhaps the biggest problem is the main character played by Cung Le. He is probably the most uninteresting and boring main character ever. He rarely speaks at all and his face appears to have about 2 different expressions to choose from. There are attempts to bring the character depth by using flashbacks but with a horrible execution.
The plot is super thin and a couple of side plots also exists but they add nothing and leads nowhere. Another thing that rarely get any worse is the acting which is horrific from basically everyone in this movie. But the most annoying thing is the music and sound editing and several times I felt the urge to press the mute button.
The fight scenes isn't that good either, perhaps not the worst I have ever seen but far from saving the movie. If your thinking of watching this movie because JCVD is in it you should know that he hardly does any fighting and he only appears in flashbacks. A bigger role for him might have lifted the movie to at least being watchable.
It doesn't get much worse than this, or at least I hope it don't. The movie is 91 minutes long, I strongly advice you to spend that time more wisely then I did.
