Good start bad finish

Rating: Null/10 (29 August 2004)

This movie started out sooOoo good. The actors, finally real martial arts actors in a Tarantino film, and a big budget. Good to great fighting sequences, very artsy and all that, but the ending messed it all up. Why can't I find an action fighting movie that is exactly that. forget the dry story, or convoluted plot lines, or morales or whatever, just good guy vs. bad guy, and lots and lots of bad ass fighting scenes. I don't want to give anything away, but the ending left me bored and unhappy. I thought Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon was too artsy too...someone should make a movie that is just one badass fight scene all the way through...yah...now that would be raw...
