It's one of those "international thrillers" that HK makes to sell to the rest of the world - non-HK locations, some non-HK actors etc. D&B Films used to be the experts in this genre. That said, it's pretty fun in my opinion - totally no-brain entertainment, with some good action direction by Donnie Yen. The plot is terrible, of course, but what did you expect. Worth renting...
