"Martial arts genius Jet Li explodes onto the screen with an intensity not seen since Bruce Lee. 'Kiss of the Dragon' is not merely a thriller but a shocker" (San Francisco Chronicle). China's top secret agent visits Paris on a pleasure trip only to encounter government espionage at the highest level.

The writers of THE FIFTH ELEMENT, Luc Besson (who also directed the Bruce Willis film) and Robert Mark Kamen, have teamed up again to deliver Jet Li in the action thriller KISS OF THE DRAGON. Li stars as Liu Jiuan, a Chinese agent so dedicated to his job that he has no friends, no family, no dreams. He is sent to Paris to help the French police capture a Chinese gangster, but France's top cop, Jeanne-Pierre Richard (Tcheky Karyo), has set Liu up to take the fall for a brutal killing he himself carried out. On the run in a strange city, Liu keeps a low profile until he unwillingly becomes friends with an American hooker, Jessica (Bridget Fonda)--who just happens to hold the key to his innocence. But Richard is always one step ahead of them--he has Jessica's daughter. Li and Fonda make a great team; their relationship is at the core of the film, as neither character has ever been able to put his complete trust in another person before. The action scenes, directed by Corey Yuen, are fast and furious and very violent, featuring mesmerizing moves by Li, especially one involving a billiard ball. Chris Nahon, in his directorial debut, makes excellent use of the location, including numerous shots of famous Parisian landmarks as the bad cops try to machine-gun down Liu in the streets and sewers and on the Seine.

Kiss Of The Dragon Reviews:

"...With KISS, the spotlight swivels to Jet Li, a fleet performer with a highly appealing demeanor of patient, quizzical intelligence..." -- Lisa Schwarzbaum, Entertainment Weekly

"...Mr. Li and his fisticuffs choreographer, Corey Yuan, have set a new standard for action here....The combat couldn't be better..."-- Elvis Mitchell, New York Times

"...It's an assortment of kicks, somersaults and Dolby Digital bone-snaps..."-- Mike Clark, USA Today

"Boldly kicking ass like no ass has been kicked before, KISS OF THE DRAGON is a slick, straight-ahead action-thriller..." -- Joe Leydon, Variety

"...The movie looks great....Well-staged and filmed with a certain stylistic elegance..." -- Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times

5 stars This was not "Music", but a DVD Movie
This was a fantastic movie with an enormous amount of fighting action. I felt the female sidekick was a let down for a movie of this action caliber. GREAT Movie!! Highly recommended. Great stunt work and fight scenes.

3 stars Highly recommended
So many reviewers said this movie was a forgettable one, just to show how reliable these demagogic movie reviewers are. One of the rare movies i still watch over and over in my spare time. Tcheky always shines as a bad guy. For another french movie with Tcheky playing a violent cop, watch Dobermann.

I'm not really a patriot of my country, but I want you to know that the best Jet Li is French. Produced by Luc Besson and directed by Chris Nahon, it's very cool to know that Jet Li acts in my country. And this is his best one!

Dominic Toretto (Vin Diesel) drives the streets of L.A. as if he owns them. As far as his crew is concerned, he does. The races are street theater, tribal gathering and battlefield, fuelled by adrenaline and out-of-control speed. Brian (Paul Walker) is ready to test the limits. He seeks Dominic's approval. After a blazing encounter with ruthless Johnny Tran (Rick Yune), Dominic decides Brian is all right. Dominic's sister Mia (Jordana Brewster) likes what she sees, too. The thing is, they don't know he's a cop. Brian is under cover, investigating a series of big-rig hijackings. Dominic and Johnny are both suspects. As the rivalry between Dominic's and Johnny Tran's crews esc THE FAST AND THE FURIOUS is a nitro-burning joyride that makes outstanding use of special effects, innovative camera work, and a nonstop throbbing soundtrack.

Roaring along at breakneck speed, Dom (Vin Diesel) and his crew meet on the streets of L.A. each night to show off their high-powered racers.

THE ONE is based on the futuristic premise that there is more than one universe: there are many parallel universes, each of which contain a slightly different version of every person who has ever lived. Yulaw (Jet Li) is a rogue agent from the Multiverse Bureau of Intelligence who has learned that, by traveling from one parallel universe to another and killing the alternate versions of himself, he gains his counterparts's strength, speed and intelligence. After killing one hundred and twenty-three parallel versions of himself, Yulaw has gained almost unstoppable power--and there is only one version of himself left, Gabriel Law (Jet Li), a Los Angeles cop. Yulaw travels to the universe that houses his nemesis, followed by a pair of agents intent on stopping him from killing Gabe and either gaining near-Godlike powers, or destroying the fabric of all existence. Gabe is confused to find himself being hunted and shot at by himself, but with the ...
