Overall, a good action movie starring Jet Li. The pacing is swift, there's a nod to American action movies, and you never really feel bored. There are moments of suspense, but overall it's a straightforward action movie with a main hero, fighting a villain that seems poised to win at every turn.
It's going to disappoint some fans that like more kung fu in their movies from Li, but it still is a solid actioner that holds up well today.
The movie is also known as "Meltdown" in case you don't know, and that is the dvd version. The dubbed version isn't too bad, but of course purists will want to watch the original language track with subtitles. As I said, it holds up well as an action movie, not so much a fight film.
