Okay, I admit that I saw this movie and liked it. I am a Jet Li fan and have wondered what it would be like to see him face off against these Ultimate Fighters or K-1 champions. This film provides the answer, in spades, as Jet fights a whole caged ring of Ultimate Fighters surrounding him. And there's dwarf-tossing, too! The point of this film is non-stop action. You get rocket-assisted safe-crackin' shit, depleted uranium ammo shit, high-tech neutron bombardment shit, the LAPD screwing up time and again shit, ATV chase shit, hot booty shit, gangsta rap music shit, cute kid outsmarting adults shit, and much more. As for DMX, he is only one-third the actor that Keenan Ivory Wayans is (and Keenan is one-seventh the actor that Samuel L. Jackson is). There is an anti-Asian sentiment in the film which is only tempered by Jet Li being on the same side as DMX and Tom Arnold (for that 'Holy Trinity' shit). It reminded me a bit of "Three The Hard Way", a Blackspoitation classic with Fred Williamson, Jim Brown, and Jim Kelly teaming up against neo-Nazis.Did I mention you get dwarf-tossing?
