Avis à la une
This is an excellent little martial arts film mainly due to the involvement of the late Brandon Lee. The story never really gets above the usual B-movie fare of guns and gangsters. There is some clever stuff with occasions where we and Lee never know who to trust, but for most of the way the story is simply an excuse for a huge amount of fight scenes. Lee has plenty of skills, he doesn't rely on wire work for spectacle but here he has a mix of his father's style and Chan's ability to use everyday items. The fights are well handled and all his moves are clear to see, making it all the more interesting to watch.
Lee is excellent here, he's really fit and has movie star looks. His performance is perhaps more thoughtful than you'd expect, but the real skill is his fight scenes which he handles well. Of the rest of the cast Powers Booth and Tzi Ma stand out.
A great little martial arts film. Not a fantastic story but the fight scenes are really well handled.

- AnecdotesBrandon Lee was a self-confessed Jackie Chan fan, who in turn was a fan of Lee's father Bruce Lee. Brandon pays homage to Chan by incorporating key moves from Police Story (1985) and Dragons Forever (1988) in the final fight scenes.
- GaffesWhen Jake is fighting the corrupt FBI guys in the apartment he kicks the gun out of the hands of one of the agents and it falls between the bed and the wall. The next shot shows the gun lying on the bed.
