Good Action Film
Great action with a story line that fits the culture of the year before Hong Kong reverted to China. The inclusion of dangerously spoiled boys in the story can be irritating but incorporating behavioral lessons is a common feature in Chinese films. So, it is not unexpected. Overall, a good and entertaining movie.

The movie Kevin Costner's bodyguard was based on......
Jet Li is a better bodyguard than Kevin Costner anyday. This movie rocks, the action is amazing. It grabs you from the beginning to the end...

Recently Re-released as The Defender
Be aware that this video has recently been re-released under the title of "The Defender". Don't buy it twice... I did and with the exception of the DVD Case there are few differences. It's an OK Jet Li movie, but not his best. Long on romance and short on action. Good one to watch with the women of they're Martial Arts refusniks.
