I thought the same thing when I first heard about it
Jet Li and Jason Statham in the same movie? I'm there
It will be a good escape...not like Jet Li is going to win an oscar for this one, but it will be a good 2 hours at the movie theatre and worth the price of admission

Yes Jet and Jason were together in the One but Stratham's star has risen quite a bit since so should be a considerably better effort
Devon Aoki is also in this movie
and Catalina from my Name is Earl

These days, I'm down for anything Statham is in. Even as horrid as Crank was, it still had its moments, all due to Statham.

Can't wait for this. I'm a big Statham and Jet Li fan. While I actually enjoyed The One, Statham wasn't really using his fighting ability in that film. Should be more fun this time around.

And what a fucked up ending. A giant
from me. Haven't seen Revolver or the One. I'll have to check out both.

But haven't you seen those bumper stickers? War IS (always and absolutely no matter what) terrorism!!!
You'll even see him in Uwe Boll's Dungeon Siege?

Was that a ninja appearing in a bit part on the trailer? Bring it on! They should have ninjas make a comeback in action movies. The genre has gone too long without these awesome asskickers.

War. What is it good for? Absolutely NOTHING. The least amount of action in an action movie in recent memory. Brutal dialogue and the action we do get isn't exciting at all...Helen Keller could have made a more stylish and thrilling film. I'm honestly shocked by how bad this one turned out - and the final 'twists' are so stupid that it's a good thing we don't give a shit by that point anyway... I'm a fan of Statham and Jet Li but this easily is one of the worst movies of the summer...and it may be the worst of Jet Li's american movies to date...which speaks volumes IMO.
