Dramatically it is getting worse by the minute I conclude that i want my 30min of life back. I would like to sue them. This is truly a very bad movie
With a decent budget, plenty of locations to film, a somewhat large cast, decent combat scenes and cinematography, it should make for a good flick.
Instead, it is gutted by tedious, standard dialogue, poorly executed. Too much chatter, barely a hint of emotion in it, all of it stuffed together in chunks that just can't jabber squeezed into it without any breaks and pauses.
Oh yeah, the plot? Like a bone with a few pathetic strips of meat on it.
Movie might have worked if the acting and speech was top-notch (think Pulp Fiction), but with this standard of acting... forget it!
Although there are some things I would have done differently, there is a lot to like here. Though the action was a bit too fast cut for my liking, the choreography by star Kazu was good, there is hand to hand and some weapons and some nice stunts – a good mix.
Good effects, well paced, cool music, nice cinematography, some comedy, awesome locations, nice cars, beautiful women.
I particularly liked 'the Russians' fight and the RAHU was a bit out of place with the rest of the film but their fight was great !
I enjoyed it very much.
The action is choreographed reasonably. This doesn't mean it's good, it's passable. It's noticeable too often and there is too much reliance on fighting, making it seem like it's just a wet dream fantasy of some random guy.
This wet dream fantasy is culminated with shoe-horned sex scenes or just random female nudity. Now, granted, this actually is the best part of the film for me, as a hot-blooded male who thought the film was pretty crap. The women were very attractive, but were simply there to be that, which is a shame. I say women, it was just one woman really, and a topless Asian girl right at the end.
Honestly, the film is just plain bad, start to finish. The only redeeming feature is the rare, but nice to look at, nudity. That makes me sound terribly misogynistic, which I swear I'm not (!), but it's the truth. It's not worth watching.
If you enjoy martial arts action this film delivers many fine fight scenes as well as a fair amount of brutality... unfortunately these scenes are linked by a story that isn't really strong enough. The acting is very mixed; I thought Kazu Patrick Tang was pretty solid as Mozart; Johan Kirsten was okay as Julius and Macha Polivka was good enough but underused as Mary, the woman who gets between them. I liked Guk Srisawat's performance as Umiko although she felt like a character who had wandered in from another, probably better, film. Many secondary actors were distinctly poor. At times it felt as though the makers had seen other, better, films, notably 'Sin City' and 'Kill Bill part One' and decided to combine them with little success. Overall I'd say that this film has its moments but overall it was a bit disappointing... probably best watched with a few friends and several beers.
