Enjoy the film, but don't expect any classic action sequences.

This was Jet's first all English speaking role, and it's obvious he spent a lot of time learning the script. Too bad the writers didn't provide him with suitable reading material. One of the so called special effects is showing people as they would be seen in an xray so when they die you get to see which bones were crushed. Oh goodie. That's something I have always wanted to see.

The "plot" and I use that word reluctantly involves two large gang famalies seemingly sharing Oakland, but always plotting and scheming for new ways to grow more influential.

Jet is really wasted in this film and in the role. If you like Jet and martial arts in US movies avoid this one and see The One or Kiss Of The Dragon.
