Summary: Kiss of the Dragon - Jet Li
Review: Unfortunately it looks as though Jet is following Jackie Chan down the hollywood trail. Although this film obviously has a bigger budget than most of his other titles I feel that it lacks some of the Flair of his earlier work (tai-chi master, kung fu cult master etc.)

The story of a top police officer betrayed by the people he is sent to help. Action all the way with an awesome ending.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Jet Li is back!!
Review: This movie is real Jet Li's style. He went back to his style.The lately, His movies were not really good.(I can't say which one!) This movie was not made by Chinese and not made in China, but this movie's stuffs knew a lot about them and ideas.This movie looks Chinese style, American style and French style...It's amazing! Anyway J is always real hero at wherever and whenever!!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A movie to remember
Review: First i will talk about Jet Li and his acting, then the movie

Jet Li is a pretty good actor considering he can't speak english very well...i have sen almost all of his movies including the japanese dubbed ones and in every one of them he is amazing but lets face it, without the fighting he would be nothing

Kiss of the dragon was my all time favourite movie. I would have to say that Jet Li does some of the best fighting in this movie that i have ever seen him do. There are many fight seens which just blow your mind away because he is so fast, and he can do almost anything with a weapon. Many people say that Jacki Chan is better than Jet Li and all i say to those people is watch kiss of the dragon. Jet Li could beat Jackie Chan in a fight ANYDAY.

Overall this movie is amazing and i just pray tha Jet Li keeps making more and more martial arts movies. I can't get enough of Jet Li

Summary: A suprise
Review: This movie was much better than expected. It has the ususal martial arts action, it won't be winning any Academy Awards, Jet Li can't act, but that's ok. The movie has a good story, the fight scenes are great, and most of the actors are pretty good. Well worth the ticket price and a great addition to your home library. Overall, a fun movie to watch.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Not a bad offering
Review: This movie reminded me of Bruce Lee's first offering (if memory serves me rite, it's called, "Enter The Dragon", which was filmed in Italy). The dialogue was awful, the story-line was written to fill in between action sequences, the acting from the main character, well, wooden would be the word. Where Jackie Chan's style is built upon comical stunt, Jet Li's style, however is downrite serious & get into the business so to speak. The villain in the movie stood out, & Bridget Fonda acted within her best ability (still superseded Demi Moore's performance in Striptease) as a prostitute who crossed path with Jet Li's character. The choreography & the interesting cinematography are downrite refreshing & rapid, ooze the trademark of Luc Besson thru & thru. If you have watched & enjoyed La Femme Nikita, The Professional, The Fifth Element, then, you would have a fairly good idea of what to expect. Despite that this movie is a no-brainer, it's still more palatable compared with Luc's previous offering of Joan of Arc. Recommended for a quiet nite when you just want to chill & don't wanna kill too much brain cell along the way. Watch it if you're a Jet Li's die-hard fan, or if you simply want to enjoy the martial arts at its best, or if you simply want to have a change of scenery.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: The Master has taught you well young Dragon
Review: A long movie with not to much martial arts action until nearly the end, this movie had some very well choreographed fight scenes and was worth paying the movie admission price. Especially when Jet LI fights the big black dude and the two blond twins at the end. I'm definitely buying this on video for the action scenes.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Not as much action as expected
Review: Jet Li stars as an investigator framed for the assassination of a diplomat. His only hope is a drugged-up prostitute, who wants her daughter back. The action sequences are fewer than usual; & under-par for what Li can do. See any of his foreign-made films--they are more enjoyable.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Kickin action and Jet Li makes you wanna kiss the dragon!
Review: "Thumbs Up!"

A fight-fest motion picture event, bringing Jet Li back to the screen, next to Bridgette Fonda, which of course has the fun kung fu action and the typical plot. Jet Li out to crunch some foreign drug smugglers... Yeah, yeah we know. But the action makes up for it all, possibly being one of Jet Li's best movies! Get ready for Chris Nahon's Kiss of the Dragon, because it will blow you away! Build up some plot to this film, and you've got the perfect fun-filled ticket, but it is still good as it is.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Awesome!
Review: This is perhaps the best movie I saw all summer. At first I was under the impression that this movie ws going to be lame. Oh, was I wrong. Jet Li is a bad mother... The way he walks around you know he can kick some arse. Li makes Jackie Chan look like some overweight guy trying to fight. The fight scenes are fenominal, there the ones you'll go to work and say "man you gotta see this part where he gets this guy and he....." and so on. Honestly go to the 5 dollar theatre and see this film.
