Customer Rating:      Summary: i wanted to love this movie Comment: i am a huge jet li fan and of course HAD to have this movie. and i did really like it. i think i would have liked it more had it not beed overdubbed in english and had no chinese language option. something for the studio to think about when they undoubtedly end up rereleasing it.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Black mask Comment: I owned this movie in VHS and wanted it on DVD. Great action flic by Jet Li
Customer Rating:      Summary: Black Mask... Comment: I enjoyed Jet Li in this movie...never mind the dubbing, I can look past that and enjoy the move for what it is...fantasy/action. Four stars...
Customer Rating:      Summary: Not Jet's worse, but man was that bad Comment: Now obviously the new rap music and great american voices they put on make it as bad as possible. But then again, the movie certainly is no gem in it's original language version, that is for sure.
The whole movie had above average action sequences, but the story was unbearable. Not the story itself, but the execution of it is the worst possible. It goes from sickening moments to almost little kid parts between Jet and teh girl. Just freaking horrible.
So the dvd is full screened, music is stupid, voice dubbing is almost as bad as the "jet li collection" movies, but you will get a few good points one or two good laughs, and a decent finale.
Customer Rating:      Summary: good action with a dash of plot. Comment: First off, the action in this film is great. Jet Li can kick some major butt, and the scenes with him and Françoise Yip are very good.
The detective friend is funny, the dub is amusing, they went with a kind of Bogart vibe on the voice.
The dub for the girl Tracy is annoying... high pitched and whiney, but she's a plucky enough character to not be completely irredeemable.
All in all, good action movie, and Jet Li is pretty studly as the Black Mask. (although corrugated cardboard is not what I'd have pictured as good mask material)
