Nell Minow Common Sense Media A mess. Don't try to make it make sense. Rated: 1/5 Dec 22, 2010 Full Review Empire Magazine Rated: 2/5 Dec 30, 2006 Full Review Sara Michelle Fetters MovieFreak.com Oh, and Jet Li? I tend to agree with all of you that think he's amazing, and he's phenomenal here. Too bad that quality hasn't translated into any of his English language films. Rated: 2/4 Jun 19, 2003 Full Review Justin Brown Medium Popcorn There's not much of a plot to this. The action scenes were so unrealistic. Rated: 2/5 Apr 29, 2021 Full Review Brandon Collins Medium Popcorn It's so crazy and we don't get movies like this anymore. For better or worse. This was so entertaining. Rated: 3/5 Apr 29, 2021 Full Review Matt Patches Polygon Nearly 20 years later, the breezy, no-stakes filmmaking is a welcome diversion from movies with too much budget, too many cooks, and too much pressure to be Truly Great.

Rebecca M Sweet a** movie.. dedicated dad fights for his baby girl after showering her with love and then a final moment with a gift with diamonds. Cheated by the game, trust nobody cuz nobody trusts you.. his daughter gets kidnapped and uses the last gift given to her by her daddy to let herself free just to run out if danger into her loving daddy's arms. Beautiful film about the bond between a father and daughter. As some may say.. a classic worth the watch. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 08/21/24 Full Review Gnr E Jet Li just born to fight Rated 5 out of 5 stars 07/30/24 Full Review Munkhchimeg T Jet li never disappoint you. Many action scenes were cool 😎. Liked to see their dual. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 08/04/24 Full Review Wendy W eh it was okay not the best Rated 3 out of 5 stars 08/09/23 Full Review Laurie S Lots of action, not a bad story but marred by some silly cheats. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 04/21/23 Full Review carlos t Minha opinião: Um filme que já assisti algumas vezes, mas se eu lembrar da primeira vez; eu digo que gostei. Foi uma época onde Jet Li se despontava em #Hoolywood como @jackiechan Seus filmes: Romeu Tem que Morrer, Rogue (com Jason Statham), Cão de Briga (com Morgam Freeman), Beijo do Dragão (com Bridget Fonda), Máquina Mortifera 4 (com Mel Gibson), A Múmia 3 (com Brendan Fraser). Foi uma fase muito de Jet, posso dizer que a maioria de seus filmes eu curti muito. Contra o Tempo ele contra cena um grupo de atores negros muito bons e que curto. Anthony, Gabrielli e o Rapper DMX (falecido), um trio que tem uma boa sintonia e mais com o chinês Jet. A trama se passa depois de um assalto a um banco, onde o trio acaba assaltando umas pedras especiais que geram uma energia quase que infinita. Para recupera-los é enviado Jet pelo bem e Mark pelo mal. Onde no passado os 2 haviam trabalhado juntos na agência, mas agora estão de lados opostos. Jet vai atrás do trio e Mark sequestra a filha de DMX. Assim Jet se junta a eles, para recuperar as pedras e a filha de DMX. E assim segue toda a trama e trazendo humor temos, Anthony e Tom Arnold que fazem uma dupla infalível. Um filme com ação, lutas, drama e humor. Um tempero que feito. Parabéns por conseguir o ponto bom em todos os aspectos. Mesmo assistindo hoje, o filme e bem atual e os carros que Jet dirige. Roteiro: Bom Vale apena assistir? Sim Nota: 7,5 Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 03/30/23 Full Review Read all reviews
