i never like john woo and this film be the epitome of bad movie making . all of john woo film be bad and in the same way . they have ridiculously overdone battle scene and the rest of the film seem like it be on auto drive until they get to the next action scene . christain slater be a good actor but he be surround by incompetence and it simply bring him down with the rest of the film . the writing be awful and it have a tack on and meaningless end . this movie be terrible and pointless from begin to end . i still have no idea how john woo be still make movie and but one thing for sure and he shouldn not be .
