 | | 8. War | | | Starring: Jason Statham Jet Li Director: Phillip G. Atwell | | Format: DVD Release Date: 5/6/2008 |  | War - DVD Review By: Jesse Hassenger - filmcritic.com DVD Reviews Published on: 12/22/2007 12:57 AM | |
The problem with being a connoisseur of B-grade action movies is that eventually you start applying the kind of elevated expectations that this genre is supposed to guard against. You get so accustomed to, say, a late-summer Jason Statham movie providing more thrills than many of its big-budget counterparts that suddenly Statham and Jet Li costarring in a chintzy action picture becomes a victim of perhaps unreasonable expectations. That pairing of B-movie titans, somewhat inexplicably titled War, is neither a team-up nor a battle royale; it's actually kind of like a low-budget Heat knockoff, with a far larger cast and a far snakier plot than is warranted by the stars' specific and unpretentious skill sets. read the full review | |
