I think this movie was overshadowed a bit by the 1996 Romeo+Juliet. For some time I associated "Romeo Must Die" with DiCaprio's face. And even when I learned it's a different movie altogether, I still thought that it's about the story of Romeo and Juliet so it can't be good. (I don't like tragedies, I think they're pointless.)
But it's actually a good action thriller. In the first half the plot seemed a bit confusing to me. I didn't get the motives of the characters. But later it unfolds more. And what's more important, I didn't find even the first half boring. Cool scenes with nice acting, thoroughly entertaining. Some fight scenes were great but there was one that looked like the cheapest computer editing. But mostly good. My favorite was the football scene. If you ever want to see american football with martial arts, well, that's there...
Not the best movie ever but it's my favorite version of Romeo and Juliet story. If it even counts as that. Probably not. Just an action movie that distantly resembles the same themes.
Anyhow, I'm going to watch it again at some point. Ok stuff. Check it out!
