Review title: It probably could have been terrific
Product review: There is much to like about this film. The action is often breathtaking; Jet Li is a charismatic hero, and Karen Mok a charming heroine; the photography is superb; the sets and costumes are always interesting. Unfortunately, the film has been edited (at least, in the American version) as if it were a music video, with no concern for coherence. As a consequence, the overall story is murky (I never could figure out exactly what the bad guys were up to), and the composition of individual scenes is often confusing (in many of the fights, you have to guess who is hitting whom). I could also have done without the wall-to-wall rap soundtrack, but your taste may vary as to that.
