Jason Statham was a little bit of a fish out of water but held his own and the rest of the cast was brilliant (and I mean brilliant!). This was an excellent film that will be a staple of any fantasy movie collection. It was marred by some of the combat related effects (crouching tiger, hidden dragon crap - but it's only a few scenes) and a couple odds and ends barely worth mentioning (mostly post-production things like awkward scene changes that many won't even notice). While not campy like 'House of the Dead' Uwe Boll (director) has proved himself to be someone to watch for. This is a must buy for me, and I would check out anything with Boll's name on it now.
Too many people expected just another Statham action movie and others didn't go because they couldn't believe Statham in fantasy but where the former is simply a misplaced audience (and cranky about it), the latter has really missed out on an incredible fantasy movie.
