What is it w/ Bodyguard movies where the female always has to hate the bodyguard but ultimately falls in love with him? She was utterly annoying, and I'm surprised his character falls for her, but ... good enough excuse for cool fight scenes. Jet Li excels at playing these tough cops/soldiers, devoted only to the mission and his code of honor. His hand to hand combat is great stuff to watch and I love how calm and still he is until it's time to unleash his fighting ability. It's fun seeing this same tough guy turn into a nervous wreck when he finds himself falling for his assignment, but even better to see him kicking ass in the mall, or the house, or... wherever. If only his female costar could have a bit more spine and brains!
