DUELING CRITICS

"Fight scenes -- the central attraction in any Jet Li movie -- are balletic and furious, sharp and sleek and machine-gun fast...[director James] Wong also pulls off nice special effects"

- Margaret A. McGurk

"A handful of no-doubt-costly but lifeless digital effects are the movie's raison d'ętre; the rest is 'all your base are belong to us'-level dialogue barely audible over the listless wall-to-wall rock score"

- Sam Adams
