The One Review
by Jerry Saravia (Rating: 2/4)
Jet Li has presence, style and is not a bad actor at all. But if he is not quick on his feet, he may end up like Jean Claude Van Damme with synthetic formulaic nonsense like "The One." more

When Jet Li stops taking himself so seriously, maybe audiences will begin to warm up to him. When he learns how to crack a smile, maybe audiences will better relate to him. When he finds matieral that elevates him above one-dimensional projects,...more

What little good that can be said about The One is easily summed up in this sentence: Jet Li fights himself. Imagine a kind of WB sci-fi goof-off on Highlander, with a screamy metal soundtrack and throw in the deep dramatic quandaries of the Patty Duke...more

I can't figure Jet Li out at all. I know the little bastard can fight because I've seen a few of the Once Upon a Time in China films, but so far the stuff Li has made in the United States has been colossally disappointing. And I'm not expecting him...more
