About

You may like this if you want a rough, street-level martial arts crime movie with a simple revenge-and-redemption feel, somewhat in the vein of Skin Trade; Not for you if you need a tight story or nonstop action.

Pros: gritty setup; tough hand-to-hand fights; strong villain presence | Cons: thin story; confusing plot turns; lead lacks charisma
