just didn't work for me at all

Rating: 2/10 (9 July 2000)

This movie bored me. Perhaps it was because it pushed the envelope a little too far on being unpleasant (too much psycho thriller stuff in an action movie), and maybe it was the total lack of chemistry between the two stars, but I had trouble getting through it. There are some good sequences, and perhaps having the movie around to make a joking reference to in MI2 is worthwhile, but I'd skip this movie. Any of Lee's Hong Kong movies are better, and even "The Big Hit" is much better. That at least is a pure action spectacle. For my money Lee can't handle "acting", so if he tries to do anything other than straight action, I'll give it a pass in the future. I am surprised at how bad this movie is.
