China Strike Force

There was some outstanding stunt work at the end, and some really good fight scenes, but that was all there is.

The irritating Coolio completely played over Mark Dacascos (Cradle to the Grave). The constant jive just wore thin after five minutes.

Aaron Kwok was good, and Japanese model Norika Fujiwara really kept things interesting, but not enough to recommend the time spent.

Lee-Hom Wang is proving to be really good, and in recognition was in Lust, Caution.

If you want to see real action, there are many better films to check out.

I'll admit that much of the acting is very bad, the dialog is even worse, many of the stunts look so fake that they're ridiculous, nothing about the action scenes is in any way believable, and the story itself has been done to death... BUT...

Coolio is consistently funny as the South Central LA drug dealer trying to make a Chinese connection, Norika Fujiwara is as beautiful and sexy as you could want an actress to be, Mark Dacascos is actually pretty good in the movie, and even the fake-looking stunts are fun to watch as long as you don't let yourself get shaken out of the story by the extremely poor production values.

So although I grimaced in a few places, after it was over I realized I had enjoyed watching it.

This movie has some great fight scenes and incredible stunts but the plot is only average and the casting director should never have been hired. most of the acting is so awful it will have you cringing, especially the performances of Coolio and Norika. And while Aaron Kwok and Lee Hom give reasonably good performances, they've given the actor who can barely speak english (Kwok) the english lines and the American born actor (Lee Hom) with a rather bad mandarin accent got most of the mandarin lines

I read some of the comments on this movie and it was described as being very funny rather than serious. So i decided to take a look, as much as i didn't want to laugh, i had to laugh because it is hilariuos. Badly acted, and badly performed that it becomes funny. What is up with the jumps? they look more like flying... And with the motorbike sequences? no comments...The dialogs are as cheesy as it gets. The only good parts are with Mark Dacascos, which is the main reason for me watching this movie, but yet another disappointment from his side...

A movie with Mark Dacascos in production by Stanley Tong, should be of high quality in all directions, this one was a failing attempt.
