ThiefHott Too much of everything

Huievest Instead, you get a movie that's enjoyable enough, but leaves you feeling like it could have been much, much more.

FirstWitch A movie that not only functions as a solid scarefest but a razor-sharp satire.

Rosie Searle It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.

holeeray I notice this movie has a lot of negative reviews around here, but I'm going to assume it's because this isn't a movie that just puts everything on a platter for the audience to easily consume in little bites. There's incredible depth in character development as well as plot. It took me about 5 attempts to get all the way through the movie because how difficult it was to fully comprehend what the director was trying to portray. You don't normally see this level of craft in action movies, but there was incredible balance and I look forward to future movies by this director. I wanted to give it 9/10, but I did take off one star because I feel like the trailer is a bit misleading.

subxerogravity So, I normally don't like to give out spoilers here. I try my best not to, but I need to tell you that the best part of the movie happens in the first fifteen minutes.You see the poster of the film and you see Seagal and Tyson putting up their dukes and your thinking "Wow! who would have thought I wanted to see that so badly?"It was good, surprisingly good. Mike Tyson, who looked like he got into shape for this flick, represented for boxing, which rarely gets a chance to shine in action cinema as a fighting style (You should see a movie called Riot with Sugar Ray Lenard), and sense it's been like 25 years since Steven Seagal has lifted his fat leg up in the air it feels like an even match. Chinese-style action (with american fast cuts), and I must admit, it was was worth that ticket price.But once it's over I could have literally left the theater. The film has a few good action segments. Some including Iron Mike, whose insertion in the movie made it feel like he was just there to put his face on the poster (Which is true, even more so for Seagal whose 15 mins in the film also included the battle with Iron Mike).Seem like an interesting story as well. From the closing text it was a true story about a a Chinese telecommunication company in a biting war with another company that's trying so hard to keep their monopoly that they are willing to start a war between two African nations on the brink of it. I like the fact that China seems to be making a few movies in Africa to reflect the current culture merge, and I liked how the movie explored Chinese patriotism, but for a movie starring Steven Seagal and Mike Tyson (who are on the poster), you got to be prepared for how little action is in the movie and how much it's about a political situation. Good trick getting me to see the movie, but the only reason why I came ended so fast and I was just bored with what could have been a good movie otherwise.

asiribander An hour of life that I will never get back Only gave it one star cuz I didn't figure out how to give it non
