Synopsis: A counterterrorist agent (Jean Claude Van Damme) on that "one last mission" joins up with a flamboyant, rainbow-haired arms dealer (Dennis Rodman, who else?) in pursuit of a sleazy terrorist. This... A counterterrorist agent (Jean Claude Van Damme) on that "one last mission" joins up with a flamboyant, rainbow-haired arms dealer (Dennis Rodman, who else?) in pursuit of a sleazy terrorist. This situation creates a narrative space enclosing gleefully excessive plot excesses (the arrival of an underground order of militaristic monks) and plenty of basketball-related jokes (a free-throw with a human skull). All of this set to a quick-march pace by Hong Action epic actionmaster Tsui Hark. [More]
