Contract Killer

I have been watching this movie since I was a child and never gets old or boring. I love jet li movies and wish he could continue to act. But I digress, the movie is worth to see if your an old school fan even if your not the movie is worth it. Plenty of action it even has moments of humor.

It was super good . I will watch the othersI think you should watch it to .It has no bad moments .;];];]dudduddues kid ;]

one of the better movie with comedy and action together, which is common with Jackie Chan movies not jet Li

Great

I watched this movie a few times. It is my introduction to the Jet Li character. The movie is based on an improbable theme: find the person who killed a Japanese guy messily with a shotgun, and get a $100 million reward. I can't feel too much sympathy for the Japanese person: he shoots two women dead in the first few minutes of the movie. His death seemed deserved.The introduction of Jet Li is slow and bumbling. We hardly think of or view him as a martial arts master. He's more like a nice guy who just isn't certain of the next steps. He isn't theres to stop a crime, or rescue others, he is not really on a mission. His search for the King of Killers seems accidental.The one good part of this film is where he meets the girl. Ahhh! She likes him, and he likes her! Unfortunately the chance of a tender romance that develops into a marriage is thrown away. That is the most disappointing thing about the movie. It was a great opportunity. Failing to develop it hurts the movie.I find it very hard to believe the martial arts moments in the movie. Most of Jet Li's moves are shown in slow motion, and this hurts the film, because it makes the moves hard to believe. The most believable character is Eiji rather than Jet Li. Clearly, he can handle a sword. The action is so manufactured and made to order...but really difficult to believe.An overall better performance is given by the two men who star in "The 7 Grandmasters", especially the older man. There is absolutely no doubt that he is a martial arts master in his own right...no slow motion or fancy staging needed. The same applies to the younger man -- I think Yi Minh Li stars in that role. Another totally believable star is Dragon Lee. He really does have exceptional skill and is a focused, believable movie star.

This was a good one. Humorous at times but the fat guy was annoying... guess that was the point, though. The English overdubs are forgiveable but still pretty campy. Still enjoyable. The rap music was hilarious. I haven't a clue why rap was used in this movie...probably the funniest part of the movie. Seemed really outta place.

One of Jet Li's best. Strong supporting cast and awesome action scenes.
