JCVD looks horrible here. Coked out. He was doubled in almost ALL action scenes and his final fight was removed from the edit. Sammo Hung did the 2nd unit directing and I'm very sure he just decided to double JCVD for all of it. Dude is way too slow for HK action anyway.
Why it is called rare. Cause it is a hidden gem, it is supposed to be hidden. This is one of the movies that JCVD actually does do great action scenes. With no over the top gore and still fun. Choreography also authentic, cause a HK team means No CGI fight scenes and no 1 sec cut frames. All in all genius masterpiece from Tsui Hark. You won't easily this anymore since HK is no more The indians gave it back to the British! Artistic freedom is limited now!!!
