Mizuno Miki fans, this movie should be retitled the Mizuno Miki promotion video!

Look, she speaks English! Look, she knows kung-fu too! Wait, she likes children! No, even better, she can take over control of a U.S. base in Japan! And what a hottie! This is what The Cell was to Jennifer Lopez, this movie is none other than the Mizuno Miki talent show! So directors and producers, watch how you could use this actress in your future movies! Isn't she just great!? Never mind the story, it's not there. Also excuse the poor FX used in explosion scenes--they didn't do anything to make Mizuno Miki look better, so only scraps of the budget went there. But did you hear her English monologue!? It did take away ten minutes of the plot without helping any of it, but wasn't it just flawless!? And were you able to disregard the annoying techno music that accompanies the action to see her kicks and wire enhanced jumps? This movie definitely deserves a 3 out of 10 from me because I am not a Mizuno Miki fan. Not a big one.
