Movie Reviews - Unleashed, Mindhunters, House of Flying Daggers
scale 1-10

Unleashed = 7.5
Jet Li's best non-asian film, along with Kiss of the Dragon. Gets a little slow in the middle as it establishes Li's relationship with his new family. But then the action comes fast and hard hitting.

Mindhunters = 6
This could have been a good film had it not been for a really weak, confusing ending. Supposedly several endings were shot, so I have to wonder how bad were the other ones, if this is what was chosen. It's serial killer, who-done-it, mystery, that works right up until the end. Then the film fails as it tries to add too many twists to keep you guessing.

House of Flying Daggers = 7
Much like Hero and CTHD, but actually seems to be shorter and with more fight scenes. Lots of action, intwined in a love story, with little humor and a tragic ending(what else for this type film)
