I had high hopes for this film. Jason Statham is one of my very favorite Action guys. Jet Li kicks ass. I figured the two of them in a film would be cinematic perfection, at least from a great action movie perspective.
The film moved a bit slow, did not have nearly as much action as it needed to or should have had and Jason Statham did not take his shirt off even once. Aoki’s skills were wasted and Guzman needed more screen time.
Was the movie good, sure. Could it have been better, hell yeah!
The twist ending was interesting enough but slightly telegraphed.
These two men should be in films with more explosions, gun fighting and martial arts. I would watch a film they do together again, but I would hope for more. Angsty dialogue does not really have a place in a film with these two men. All we needed to know was told through some flash backs and a couple scenes in the police station.
An FBI Agent seeks vengeance on a mysterious assassin known as “Rogue” who murdered his partner.
