War

Directed by: Philip G. Atwell
Starring: Jet Li, Jason Statham, John Lone, Devon Aoki, Luis Guzmán, Saul Rubinek, Mathew St. Patrick, Nadine Velazquez
Running Time: 1h 43min

Truly unmemorable film starring two great action stars who have given us much better work. War is a complete misnomer (more like "grudge"), as the action is quite limited and the storyline convoluted. In the end, it all makes a little more sense, through some flashback and revealing, that could have saved us all about half an hour, had we been given that information in the first place.

After starring in some innovative action films that always gave us at least one new interesting set piece or fight scene, Jet Li and Jason Statham are just going through the motions on this one. A 10 minute documentary on the choreography of their past films would have had more drama and thrills than this entire movie. It's a surprise this didn't go straight to video. Just another installment in the action genre.

Grade: C
