    With Jet Li movies, it always comes down to the choreographer. He works best with Yuen Woo Ping. Corey Yuen's choreography is not as good.

    in at least three films he did it was the writer who concieved the action and the coreographers had trouble duplicating it without wires.

    YuanZhideDiZhen,

    Corey Yuen also choreograpghed Black Mask. It was a great idea that could have been a classic with better choreography. So far, Yuen WooPing is number one.

    finally a jet li movie with an actual story. this could b good.
    All right now, son, I want you to get a good night's rest. And remember, I could murder you while you sleep.
    Hey son, I bought you a puppy today after work. But then I killed it and ate it! Hahah, I´m just kidding. I would never buy you a puppy.

    The new link for the Apple site is:
    http://www.apple.com/trailers/focus_...unleashed.html

    I'm not sure what to think after watching the trailer ... it is a different twist, to be sure, than his last couple of Hollywood movies. The whole collar thing seems a bit corny to me though, and the fact that there is the whole underground illegal fighting circuit ... seems to be a slight twist on an already beaten to death theme ...

    Li Kao,

    I agree with you. But I also see it as a slap in the face of Hollywood for not allowing actors Jet Li and Jackie Chan do their own thing. Ever since they started making movies for American backers there has always been this issue of control, symbolized by that collar and the issues of control when it is removed or replaced. Whenever Jackie Chan does an American backed movie and his character's name is not Jackie, I KNOW to stay away from it: he is not calling the shots. I hope this movie unconsciously signals a spiritual/socio-economical return to Asian Cinema.

    Then again, I could be so wrong.

    Unleashed

    The original release date of Unleashed was April 8, but I have it on good authority that this will be postponed until late May. I haven't seen it yet, but I hear tell it is Jet's best acting performance so far. It's not his best action performance. Stay tuned... I may have something very interesting on this very soon...

    It's not me...

    ...it IS that Hollywood person. Or people. Until it's a secure deal, I'm not really at liberty to say, and you've not worked with Hollywood. That's got to be one of the craziest industries. Case and point, they just moved the released date for UNLEASED to May 13.
