Many have wondered and asked, so no pun intended. And in case you are also thinking of Rush Hour for some reason (my mind is wired a similar way, so I feel you), there is no connection to that either (not really that is). The movie itself - well I really like it. And yes I am known for rating better or higher than others, in this case you can add that I am quite fond of eastern movies too. I guess movies in general, but the fighting in those movies and having grown up with not just Sword and Sandal movies (Hercules and others), but also the Shaw Brothers ... well it gives me an edge I reckon.
All that being said, the action scenes in this are quite well choreographed. And it gets quite violent too. Even our main character does stuff you may not totally agree - he is charismatic and I would say most will like him ... but he has edges ... quite a few of them. Sometimes it would have been better to ... well "chill" a bit (no pun intended)! Especially when it comes to punishment orders, if you can call them that.
This is based on historic events, but I assume the makers took more than a few liberties. And that is more than ok - suspend your disbelief and go with the flow.
