Corey Yuen is a stain on Asian cinema. Making awful film after awful film, but remains quite popular to western audiences.
Dead or Alive, a great Japanese VG, with the main characters Japanese. But here 3 out the 4 main characters, non-Japanese. Clearly making a movie to accommodate the west and betraying the VG.
Fans of the VG wanna see more of Hitomi, Lei Fang, Jann Lee, and definitely Ryu Hayabusa, the super ninja. Not some pathetic body guard, portrayed in this movie. These characters are the people's favourites. Whilst we still like the bouncy chicks, it shouldn't have been the main attraction to this movie.
Terrible, cheesy dialogue. Boring plot and rubbish sequences. The cast wasn't a bad one, Holly Valance, Jamie Pressley, Sarah Carter, Devon Aoki are all likable performers. But Corey Yuen just can't do anything with them other than make Lei Fang look good.
