      conventional

      Movies are deserted. Looking for a movie that can be eaten in thousands of movies, I found it, but unexpectedly discovered that Jet Li played it. So I watched it patiently, and the effect of the meal was quite good.

      It's a pity that the whole movie didn't let me feel the attraction of martial arts stars. On the contrary, there was a very deliberate desire to shoot a very detailed look, but the final shot was a little bit different.

      Romance movies are not like romance movies, and...

      Can't hold back most of the night

      In fact, I watched this movie a few days ago, that is, not long ago, it was exactly a few minutes ago, and I read a comment. I couldn’t hold back my great power, and I would like to comment on my personal opinion.

      I saw a comment in the iQiyi Film Critics Area saying that this is Jet Li’s second movie in Hollywood, and the first leading role after the villain of the Sky Cannon, but the director’s skills are obviously not good, it’s appropriate....

      I even figured out the name

      Today, I was chatting in the group and my group of friends pushed me this movie, I can’t remember seeing it, I just found it and watch it again. I haven’t seen it before. I still like watching Jet Li’s play, but I’m not the king of Kung Fu. dare compliment did not see ~ ~ ~ ~ feel that it is no longer in my mind before the Jet

      To Aaliyah

      In fact, there is not much novelty in the film. The steel wire is too fake. It was only after searching Jet Li to find out. After reading it, I feel that the heroine Aaliyah shines in front of her, which is very good. Baidu only learned about "August 25, 2001 (August 26, Beijing time), an American singer and actress known as the "Black Jade Girl" Actor Aaliyah crashed and died in the Bahamas. Aaliyah is known as the most popular blues singer and rookie in the United States. The new star came to...

      Chinese and blacks in Hollywood's eyes

      The 37-year-old Jet Li and the 21-year-old Aaliyah play Romeo and Juliet respectively. One is a Chinese star and the other is a black girl. This is a creative and challenging idea in itself. In fact, Shakespeare’s story mode has many disguised versions in Hollywood. The most shocking is the brutal bloody battle between the vampire family and the werewolf family of "Underworld" for hundreds of years. In contrast, "Romeo Must Die" is an article. The innocent love of realistic boys and girls (Jet...

      1. Judging from the history of China's gang boss, this film should be banned; 2. The prison in Hong Kong is not authentic; 3. Jet Li escaped from prison and has repeatedly engaged in trouble in the United States, but he is not wanted; 4. Yellow Romeo , Black Juliet. 2018.5.5...

    Movie plot

    Evaluation action

    The film is Jet Li's first work officially. The ancient Shakespearean plays were moved to modern New Orleans. The Chinese gang members and the daughter of the gangster's rival fell into a life-and-death relationship. The film itself is lacklustre, but several of its features have been carried over to most of his subsequent works, so it is worth mentioning. First of all, this kind of kung fu film in the United States is aimed at a...
