I love how they managed to cast the least Chinese looking Chinese girl they could find... lol

That looks really bad.

Does that come as a surprise though!?

It will be a toss-up between Dragon Ball Origins and this movie for 'worst movie of the year'. (And I have a feeling I'm still forgetting one)

Wow.... who could have seen that coming...(!)

Thank gawd Dragon ball will probably be awesome...(!)

Seriously, who greenlights these kinds of projects? And if we know their names, why aren't they being shot in the face!?
Buncha morons.

At least she's brunette because that's all that matters. WTF! She doesn't even look Asian, let alone Chinese.

She does look a little Chinese, just maybe not as much as most people who are half-chinese.

Even apart from the fact that the casting has been absolutely horrible, that's hardly the biggest of it's problem. It just looks utterly utterly crap in every department.

I saw that and took it to just be a coincidence. I've no idea though.

But... but... it's Kristin Kreuk!!! She's awesomely gorgeous so on that point alone I'd maybe want to see this film!!!

I will be watching it, it cannot be worse than Street fighter with Van Damme in it, no way in hell can any film be that crap.

Yeah but I do not cares what shit sites like IGN say :D

I aint seen it, they saw it so I dont care.

If (big IF) it comes to UK cinemas I will be seeing it for pennies, so either way I will get my cash out of teh film.

But still, strangley watchable ! :?

I have seen it so many times and hate it more after each viewing, it may well get 0 out of 5 next time :D

I have no idea :lol: I guess I am a Van Damme fan and when I watch all his films in a row, I ussually include in my to watch list (even the crap ones). Not buying it on Blu Ray put it that way :lol:

VHS, Laserdisc and dvd are plenty :lol:
