Review wanted Blackjack
 
Has anybody seen this John woo movie?
Is it worth buying. Iam starting a John woo collection.

I saw this back when it was on TV. The movie is decent, but I wouldn't pay more than $5 for it. It is essentially John Woo "Lite" as it was one of two made for TV movies he did back when Broken Arrow hit theatres (the other was a very poor remake of his own Once A Thief). Blackjack (like the TV Once a Thief) was made to be a TV series produced by Woo. As part of the agreement Woo directed the pilots of each show, but neither got picked up. Blackjack was at least decent though, and probably would have made a decent series for USA (whom if I remember correctly were the ones who aired the pilot, while Fox aired Once A Thief).

As for the DVD I haven't seen it, so I can't comment how the quality is.
