(1 - 22) of 22 OFCS Rating: 14% Rotten Page   1   "Compare Romeo Must Die to Li's brilliant Fist of Legend, and it'll break your heart."   Daily Radar   Cole Smithey "Dazzling choreography, but lame gender politics."   Nitrate Online   Cynthia Fuchs D+ "Romeo Must Die indeed. And the sooner the better."   EricDSnider.com   Eric D. Snider D+ "Where's Jackie Chan when you need him?"   Film Blather   Eugene Novikov C+ "It's unfortunate that so much of the running time has been given over to the plodding plot about a war between two gangs..."   One Guy's Opinion   Frank Swietek 2/4 "When the film sticks to action, it's on firm ground."   ReelViews   James Berardinelli "When you have such a physically gifted performer as Li on hand, it's too bad that 'special effects' have to be brought in under the mistaken assumption that they'll enhance the proceedings."   Screen It!   Jim Judy 3/10 "Three words: not enough action!"   JoBlo's Movie Emporium   JoBlo 5/10 "...can be added to the list of kung-fu fighting films that promised more than it delivered."   DVDTown.com   John J. Puccio 2/4 "Tiene mucho de acción pero poca sustancia"   Moviola   Jorge Avila Andrade 2.5/4 "Way too much time is spent exposing the boring, conventional plot, with all its predictable twists and double-crossings."   Montreal Film Journal   Kevin N. Laforest "It's kind of dumb to hire a top-notch martial artist and then so fragment his action scenes that it could be anyone in there amidst the rapid-fire images of flying fists and feet."   Film Journal International   Maitland McDonagh 6/10 "If you didn't know Li was a world-class WuShu champion, you'd never guess it — all his action scenes are edited within an inch of their lives."   TV Guide's Movie Guide   Maitland McDonagh 3/4 "All Romeo Must Die claims and wants to be is one brisk jolt of action, and that's exactly what it is."   rec.arts.movies.reviews   Michael Dequina 2/5 "It's funny and violent and occasionally quite entertaining, even if there's not a single convincing moment."   Shadows on the Wall   Rich Cline C- "A little more action and a little less talk would have taken things much further."   Flipside Movie Emporium   Rob Vaux 7/10 "The main problem with the movie...is the story: it's very weak, and seems to exist mainly as a vehicle to attach all the fight scenes in a string."   Laramie Movie Scope   Robert Roten B- "A nifty little package that should allow Jet Li to get a solid hold on American actioners."   Reeling Reviews   Robin Clifford 3/10 "The action scenes drew peals of laughter."   eFilmCritic.com   Scott Weinberg 5/10 "Recommended for fight fans only."   rec.arts.movies.reviews   Susan Granger 2/4 Read review   Big Picture Big Sound   Joe Lozito 1/5 Read review   Movie Mom at Yahoo!
