Advantages: makes you tired Disadvantages: bad graphics,boring,slow,makes you want to smash it up
dragon wars is the worst film i have ever seen! its all about an old man who asks this boy to find a girl who is enchanted or something and has mystical powers,she is the girl who will bring a magical dragon from heaven to fight the evil dragon.at the end the girl dies but it is a very poor ending and the film tried to be a sob story,but frankly,its a load of cheap ,low budget rubbish.
there are some scenes that dont make sense,for example when the guy gets shot head on and he just gets up and walks away,and when the guy unleashed a power and it burned everything around him ,but his ropes were still tied up,then he runs to the girl.
it really is the most terrible movie ive ever seen,would never watch it again. ...

Advantages: Fights!! Disadvantages: Bad acting, bad plot
"You can call it the art of fighting without fighting."
-- Lee (Bruce Lee)
When you watch Enter the Dragon these days, it becomes pretty obvious, almost immediately, where films like Mortal Kombat and Conan the Destroyer got their inspiration from.
This, the first kung film to be produced by a major Hollywood studio, and the last completed Bruce Lee film before his death "by misadventure", is credited with popularizing the martial art in America and establishing Lee as a cultural icon.
And the reason that the film is considered such a quintessential film of the 1970s is not because of the plot or acting (both are appalling, to say the least) but because of the action. The fight choreography in Enter the Dragon is so good that we needn't bother dwelling on what's bad here.
So ignore the paper-thin, James Bond-type plot ...
Advantages: Great fight scenes Disadvantages: NOt particularly an original story
Kiss Of The Dragon was released in 2001 and stars Jet Li (Romeo Must die), Bridget Fonda (Jackie Brown) and Tceky Laryo (Bad Boys) and is set in the beatiful Paris. This blu ray release enhances the setting, quality of clothing, everything basically. Its quite a dark film and the blu ray version gives you those little bits of brightness that give you enough hope that the stroy will have a happy ending.
Li plays Liu Jiuan, but is constantly called Johnny, and is a top chinese government agent who is bought over from china to assist Richard (Laryo) a french police officer in a international drugs conspiracy. Little does Johnny know that Richard is a bent copper who is the mastermind behind the whole thing.
Richard sees Johnny as a nuisance and sets him up for a murder he didnt committ. Johnny is forced to run in a strange country ...
