the art of war franchise have produce 2 good and fun film . wesley snipe have be largely responsible for how good they be and but there be also smart script writer and effective director involve . somehow and the 3rd film have run badly off track . since mr. snipe isn not in it and my guess be he saw the script in advance ( they would have be fools not to ask him ) and and give it a big and big pas . judging from what we now see on the screen and he be wise to do so . the subject of the film be and generally and illegal arm trading . namely and sell a nuke to north korea . the primary focus be a un sponsored meeting on the issue in south korea . the secretary general ( a woman and which have not yet happen and may not since none of the islamic nation and which have a vast and unreasoning fear of woman and would vote for her ) underplay a pivotal role here and and need to have appear a lot more . unfortunately and the film treat this subject in a somewhat fuzzy manner that obfuscate the seriousness of the issue . we know that the tyrant of north korea want a nuke so badly he can taste it . but my guess be that have it would be a prestige item much more than a threat the nuclear club be a very exclusive one . use a nuke invite retaliation and north korea infrastructure be so fragile that a single hit certainly more than 2 would leave the state unable to manage itself . it can barely manage now . ( by contrast and even if seoul be completely flatten and south korea would still be viable . ) we should mention that the major character be represent neil shaw ( or agent # 1 ) and play by anthony criss ( bill a treach ) while jason ( or agent # 2 ) and play by warren derosa while sung hi lee and play by sung yi while and the aforementioned secretary general and play by janet carroll . criss and who be push 49 and doesn not really look it and have have a robust film or tv career and manages to play his role a if he half way believe it . the dynamic between criss and derosa be exactly the same a that between tommy lee jones and will smith in men in black who get to drive and who get the big gun and and so on . it would have help to play this bit for comic relief and but youre not work with first rate movie maker here . sung hi lee be an anomalous character who find with the bad guy early in the film and but then plunge in to cooperate whole heartedly to help the good guy . the story be develop through a lot of shoot and fisticuffs and implausible miss by the bad guy and who can not seem to hit the good guy with a hail of bullet . the fight be too obviously stag . the ultimate mystery here be the identity be the main bad guy . some red herring be dangle and but on the precedent of previous film it have to be somebody under our nose . main candidate represent derosa and lee character . he be always seem to be a squeaky wheel and she and the sweet innocent and turn out to know her way pretty well about kung fu . of course and since theyre so obvious and the bad guy may be someone else entirely . the secretary general . kim jong il . wesley snipe . i would tell you and in order to spare you have to go through this thing in order to find out and but there would be the usual bad movie masochist who will complain i commit the spoiler heresy . hell and this film be spoil the moment it go onto celluloid . some of yall will just love the senseless violence . for the rest and avoid this turkey . sayonara and art of war franchise .
