The excellent trailer was the best part of this movie.
It was dumb, dumb, dumb. Reminiscient of Indiana Jones with an Evil Nazi with an incomprehensible mind sucking machine. Completely ridiculous. And I'm a big Chow Yun Fat fan. He brought his usual charisma to the screen, but you could tell he was embarrassed by the amateur nature of this flick.
CT/HD, Replacement Killers and The Corruptor were far better recent Fat movies.
Not recommended. 4/10

Mantis?
That movie screamed "Crap!!" at me while watching the previews, and thankfully I won't be renting this one.

I actually enjoyed this movie. It wasn't great, but it wasn't terrible either.

I thought he was better (acting and charisma) in The Corruptor than in The Replacement Killers.
How do I get my hands on The Killer and Hard Boiled? Are they on DVD?
Thanks,
Doc

Amazon got'em. Mostly used I believe. You'll have to search for new copies if you want'em.
