Summary: Contract Killer
Review: i bought this movie, not knowing at all what to expect, and boy was i surprised. it was great! a very solid plot carries the movie to my rating of 5 stars, along with the action. although not action packed, what there is of it, is freakin dope. (the elevator shaft fight scene was awesome) the movie can get boring at times, but it all pays off at the end of the movie with the mind blowing final fight scene. i think that columbia tristar did an excellent transfer to dvd, dispite some scratches on the screen throughout the movie. the soundtrack was also re-done, in hip hop/ rap music. i highly recommend this movie, rent it, buy it, whatever, just see this movie

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Not worth it.
Review: I bought this video from the trailer at the start of "Iron Monkey", and was disappointed. There's very little action in this movie, and what action there is shot from bad angles. Plus, the English subtitles are poorly done. There's not enough comedy to be a parody, and not enough action to be serious.

This is a rental at best.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: A surprise
Review: I heard terrible things about this from Li fans, but it's really quite good: worlds' better than "Black Mask," or "Once Upon a Time in China and America." It starts out slow, but the climactic fight scene is superlative. Check it out!

Rating: 5 stars

Summary: Jet Li... superstar in action!
Review: I was amazed, absolutely amazed by this movie.
Jet Li stars in his ever-lasting hero as a contract killer. But he never got a single job done yet. Why? 'cause he only kills those who really deserves it. One day a multi-million assignment came upon him---a Japanese businessman was murdered, his family posted big reward for anyone who could get the killer and finish the killer off. At the end, Li wins and gets the money after a brutal battle.
This movie was quite amazing, I watched it over fivety times and still enjoy it, don't you think it's amazing now?!

Summary: NOT BAD, BUT NOT OUTSTANDING
Review: I'm giving this a higher review than I think it deserves becuase its unfairly critisized for trying to have a plot instead of meandering from one bloated fight scene to the next. While not a super Jet Li movie, he's definitely done a whole lot worse. This movie is golden when compared to unwatchable fare like Black Mask and Dr. Wai. It has its moments of humor, mainly working when poking fun of itself- the hitman genre of movies. It also has its moments of action, altough it has fewer fighting scenes than your average kung fu flick, but the final fight is, probably, decent enough to make up for it. Well worth watching.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Hitman
Review: I'ts a good movie, and any Jet li fan's should check it out......JET FAN#

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Never miss this one: Serious but funny
Review: I've seen this movie for 14 times and am still think it is one of Jet Li's best. Unfortunately the English dubbed version has not yet been available so I could just read the subtitles. However, that does not decrease the value of the movie at all. If you want to see modern fighting with humor, great excitement, and implicit moral lesson, this is a must for you. Believe me, you won't make bad decision. However, the best of Jet Li's is "Twin Warriors". This is a real masterpiece--the fighting scenes are much better than "the Matrix"!! Check it out if you don't believe it!!
