Not even close….even the bodyguard he had better acting, he was basically a mute in that too lol. They just made him a mute in this cause they only wanted him for the action.
"You basically turned a man into a dog." Fun Fact: The screenplay was written by Luc Besson exclusively for Jet Li. Play It Again Fact: Morgan Freeman's character Sam was at first not blind at all. After hearing from a piano school for the blind (with a very high reputation, and where the scholars developed their hearing), Freeman had the idea of making his character blind because like this it is easier for Sam to "see" the child in Jet Li's character, and not the brutal killer. Fan Favorite Fact: During a break between set-ups, Bob Hoskins went to the Starbucks at St George's Cross for a coffee accompanied by an Assistant Location Manager. He was wearing his character's white suit covered in fake blood. Customers recognized him and he stood for 10 minutes signing autographs before being called back to set. The Starbucks staff gave him and the crew member their coffees for free.
Hey Showdown, I hope your doing a little better under the circumstances.... you picked a great movie, one of my all time favs. Take it easy and warm regards from the Netherlands. All the best man!
Man, imma have to watch this reaction before work tomorrow (4 a.m.), but just wanted to drop a comment to say I'm glad you're back and truly sorry about what happened. ✌🏻
Volcano High (2001/2003, action/comedy), it's really 2 movies in one cause MTV re-dubbed it with hip-op artists and re-edited the whole thing into a different story using the same footage from the original Korean version.
Welcome back! I haven't watched your video yet, but I hope that you are in a good place going forward. I know that you will love her forever and it'll never not hurt. However God loves you and you have value, you two will be reunited. Go in Peace and Walk with God. 😎 👍
I only discovered your channel recently, I was loving the content and then I check the community page and was saddened to see the post about why you were on a break. Absolutely heartbreaking. Wishing you and your family all the best, please take as much time as you need.
Of all the jet li movies I’ve seen, I think this is his best acting. I remember watching old kung fu movies back in the day and jet li was a background character with line or two of dialogue and he sucked hard. He also has severe acne scarring you can’t see much in modern movies but he looked like he washed his face with a cheese grater back in the day. This character is not easy for actors, and he did a great job.
I expected this to just be a Jet Li action movie when it first came out Never thought it would be something to pull at my emotions and make me cry the way it did
Funny you said “they treat him like a dog”. The international title of the movie is Danny The Dog. Written by Luc Besson director of 5th Element, The Professional, and many others. Directed by Luc’s protégé Louis Leterrier who also did The Transporter and then transferred to american productions and gave us The Incredible Hulk……and I haven’t payed attention to what he’s done since. If you haven’t seen The Transporter, it’s a must, but try and find the more violent unrated version.
Heard of this movie as "Danny The Dog" before it came to the states. The International version was scored by the Rza & Massive Attack and i hated that it wasn't used for the stateside version. Missed it in theaters. But I had the extended cut. A great film for blending the visceral with emotional. Jet, Freeman, Hopkins and Kerry Condon (the Rome series, voice of Friday in the MCU) are great. Yuen Wo Ping made this era of action cinema, brutal and beautiful. Other than this film, I know that Luc Besson & Robert Mark Kamen also created the Taken/Transporter films. But the other gems they made were Kiss of The Dragon (2001) and Columbiana (2011), both great too.
Welcome back, Showdown. We missed you ❤ I hope you and your family are doing better. It isn't easy, I know. Much love, my friend. Edit: This movie slaps. It's soo good and Bob Hoskins was a beast! Lol
Hi Showdown, Im glad to see to see you. I just wanted to impart my well wishes to you and yours right. I'm so sorry for your loss, again. I really enjoyed this movie and its action choreography and interesting story and pretty good acting.
Wanted to let you know I have not stopped thinking about you and the kids since I saw your community post. I’m SO sorry, what a tragedy. I know you must be on a roller coaster of emotions, take care of you, those kiddos need dad. Prayers and hugs 💙
Thank you for this reaction, loved it!!! I could never sit down and watch this b/c of the way they abused Jet Li's character. It was just too much for me. I at least watched it through you.
My guy your ability to remember actors faces rivals even my own your it’s kills me every time 😂 you gotta check out super 8 if you’ve never seen it before 👍👍

Absolutely.

"You basically turned a man into a dog." The movie's working title (I believe) was Danny the Dog.
