The excellent trailer was the best part of this movie.
It was dumb, dumb, dumb. Reminiscient of Indiana Jones with an Evil **** 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

I actually enjoyed this movie. It wasn't great, but it wasn't terrible either.- Not Tom ::::::: Any system can play Diana Krall. Only the best can play Limp Bizkit.

His best
Hard Boiled
The Killer
OK at best
Replacement Killers
CT/HD
Everything else is just pure trash from this guy.

Ron dislikes a film = go out and buy it.
Ron loves a film = don't even rent. -
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,
