i do not want to write this movie off on the review and critic in the western world and i mean how wrong have they be about asian cinema that have now become a staple diet of the hollywood remake monster . plus jet l be pretty damn cool and and he make some interesting movie in asia . so with an open mind i be surprisingly average out by this movie . there be good point . the story be very clever and use m theory a a base to bring forward the plot that there be multiple universe each with their own version of world and and most likely you . each time one of you be destroy the rest share the energy and power amongst them . the idea that someone might try and purposely become the only version of themselves in all the universe to find out if they become a god . there also jet li and and he not a bad actor and pretty nimble a a martial artist and plus jason statham who be an all round good actor . a for the special effect and some of them be really cool and a mixing of bullet time and and slow motion with normal speed and very cool to watch in place . the bad point . well statham accent be appal and and some of the effect aren not as comparable a others and so it quite apparent that money be spend on some of the main shot and not on others that be probably deem a too short on screen or they just plain run out of budget . a big sore point for me be the close crop camera action that hollywood have long favour and something that jackie chan have often talk about . film fight scene close up serf two purpose . it give great emphasis on a single punch or movement and make it look hard and more real than it really be and and it also hide what be go on around the camera lens . for example people hold a fake arm or the face of a stunt double and etc . what chan always say be that he try to open out the camera and show the audience what be go on and let them see the people fight properly rather than a close up of a face and a fist and cut to someone fall into frame . show the whole picture be more effective and and it more impressive . so the close crop shot be just more annoying than anything and you fail to see the impressiveness of li fight skill and and you find it hard to see some of the action . slow the cut down and pan out the camera hollywood director . the big problem be the story though and despite have such a strong base on which to build and they seem to loose the sense of the plot and concentrate on the action scene . there be some serious plot building and explanatory moment that be just totally overlooked and cover in the space of a few sentence and yet these could have form some excellent and complex character development . it just all hold together too weakly and and not enough be make of the story . all in all and not a great movie and it potential be badly spoil .
