Alternate Versions
German theatrical version was edited for violence to secure a more commercial "Not under 16" rating. The "Not under 18" version, labeled 'uncut version', is still modified in one scene: when Richard shoots one of his men in the head you could originally see the blood splashing. However, in the German version the blood splash is out of frame. See more »

I was hoping this movie to be better than 'Romeo Must Die' and I was not disappointed. I truly believe this is Jet Li's English coming out movie (too bad it was released in the summer when other bigger movies come out).
I did not go to see the movie for the story line and those who don't won't be disappointed either. The action was great especially the final scenes. Bridget Fonda did not do much (found her irritating in some scenes) but then again, did not watch the movie because she was there.
Believable, maybe not ... Jet Li as the new Bruce Lee, most definitely!
