War

I looooove Jason Statham - he makes being a hitman look classy and hot - and Jet-Li movies are pretty cool too. So I was excited for this end of summer action flick.

Statham is an FBI agent working in the San Fransico area, keeping an eye on the activity of the local Asian gangs. His partner and his family get gunned down, with their cabin burned to the ground, causing Statham to find the guy who did it. 3 years later, the same bullets that were recovered at his partner's death resurface, causing him to continue his search, which brings him right into the middle of a War between 2 asian families - the Shiro's and the Chang's and their gangs, the Triads and Yuzuka. Jet-Li is obviously the bad guy in this movie... or is he?

Although the ending just kind of... ends, the twist is one that'll make ya go 'oooh, i see...' being not one you'd think of right away.

The Jet-Li action scenes were pretty good, despite the sub-par plot... however there just wasnt enough Jason Statham action scenes.

If you're in for an action movie or a Jason Statham/Jet-Li flick, you might be interested in this one.
