ROMEO MUST DIE

I think the better title for this review is Strings Must Die.   What could have been an awesome debute for Jet Li turns into the worst Martial arts movie since Rumble in the Bronx.    To start, Jet Li is a great martial artists who does perform some interesting martial arts scenes.   Which makes me wonder why the movie makers thought it was necessary to use strings.  HELLO!!!  WE ARE NOT FOOLED!!!  We can easily tell when the strings are being used.   It looks dumb.  Straight out stupid.   The only reason it worked in the Matrix was because they (the characters) were suppose to be able to warp the reality of the Matrix.   Having Jet Li use the strings in this flick was nothing but silly.   Another thing; is it truly necessary for all martial arts movies to be about either land acquistion or tournaments.  What's up with that.   A highlight of the movie was what I refer to as x-ray cam.   the scene would go into an x-ray like look sot hat the bones being broken could be shown.   Excellent idea wasted in a crappy movie such as this.   now, if you are a big fan of the campy Hong Kong theme then you should think this movie is the best thing since sliced bread, but as for me, I have to give this a 6 on the bunk-o-meter.
