A regular staple on the late movie round, I always find myself drawn to this film. It's okay as a story, thriller, whatever, and Powers Boothe never gets enough exposure. But you watch it for Brandon Lee.
It's a charming performance, which scores highly because there's no dependence on wires, SFX or 'splosions. Just an extremely graceful, talented fighter putting the art into martial arts, and he was a joy to watch. Frankly, much as I like the Matrix, I'd rather have Brandon back for one more film than the whole damn trilogy.
