Editorial Reviews

Donnie Yen plays a seasoned cop reluctant to return to the fray, but as a big brother figure, he comes to the assistance of his friend Pen, a troubled cop still in the force. A power-hungry, vicious, and greedy villian named Duan Mu who wants possession of a legendary treasure and will do anything to get it; Duan Mu has a crooked cop, Pen's superior, in his pocket. Two misfits and a brother and sister discover they not only share the pieces of a jade necklace, but a father, and their necklace is the key to the treasure.

1.0 out of 5 stars Really, Really Forgettable, March 22, 2011

By 

G. Teslovich - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   

This review is from: City of Darkness (DVD) (Hong Kong Movie) (DVD)

Positives:
(1.) None - sorry.

Negatives:
(1.) Not creative storytelling. Same old kidnapped rich kids; pieces of an amulet that have to be pieced together to reveal the usual hidden treasure.
(2.) Really bad martial arts skills (look like two kangaroos boxing) with same old wire spins and flips enhanced with usual high speed filming then slowed down. Talk about stuck in a rut.
(3.) Cheap CG like a laser beam continuously bouncing off of who knows what and by the way it shouldn't be visible as it travels. Usual rising sunlight activates amulet - stolen idea from you know where.
(4.) Dialogue and script that made no sense; really juvenile with English subtitles that were incomplete such as not translating written documents and grammar/spelling that throughout the movie would have failed a third grade writing class.
(5.) Juvenile acting extremely robotic and unbelievable.
