- Critics' reviews

"Pure junk"
-
"It's a high-gloss version of a Hong Kong action picture, made in America but observing the exuberance of a genre where surfaces are everything"
-
"In the more anonymous American setting, and without the mad conviction of a director like John Woo, all the choreographed murder feels dull, poorly paced, and, come to think of it, pretty demented."
-
"Despite the practical nature of the costars' bond, I spent most of the lukewarm actioner wondering when the hell they were going to start kissing"
-
"It's just like a spectacularly excessive and melodramatically daft Cantonese crime opus, but in English"
