It's not that bad. It's actually called "Danny The Dog" overseas (if you watch the movie you'll know why). But yeah, I wouldn't call it his BEST, considering he's done heaps of good movies, such as "once upon a time in china" (where he plays wong fei hong) and shit, and other movies, like the tai chi master, and such. so yeah, maybe his 'best hollywood' but i really doubt it's his best overall movie ever.

I have not seen Unleashed but when I saw Kiss of the Dragon, I must say it had to be one of the shittest films I have ever seen in my entire seventeen years of life experience.

Well, I watched it the Saturday before my English trials on Monday, and that wasted a lot of time. Now, I'm not a film critic but when I saw the acting, it was honestly terrible. The plot was typical and shallow, also.

And the ending sucked too. I know, all my complaints are cliched, but seriously.

When do actorz from action filmz ever get Oscarz...?

The action scenez from Kiss of the Dragon are way cool, the best of all Jet Li Hollywood moviez so far.

Yea. I watched it that night as well.
Obviously we have different taste :p. Although, in line with what you said, Jet Li's acting is better in Unleashed...he doesn't say much, but his acting as a "dog" and as "child" is quite good.

Acting like an animal isn't hard.
So acting like something else (an animal) isn't hard, but acting like yourself (a human) is?
