Romeo Must Die (2000)

Romeo Must Die: Directed by Andrzej Bartkowiak. With Jet Li, Aaliyah, Isaiah Washington, Russell Wong. An avenging cop seeks out his brother’s killer and falls for the daughter of a businessman who is involved in a money-deal with his father.

“The good of this movie was when Aaliyah was on the scene. The rest was rather senseless violence about gangs trying to out do each other. Jet Li was okay, but I donu0026#39;t think heu0026#39;s a good actor although he u0026#39;s a very prolific one starring in over 60 movies. Although this was her acting debut, I think Aaliyah brought the goods to the table. She was just great as Trish. The play between Trish and Han (Jet Li) as an accidental cab driver was priceless, and the way they contrasted each other on screen with younger Trish actually in somewhat of a protective role to Han really added interesting plot twist to the story. Executive producer Joel Silver had lots of original ideas about movie making, and this one I would say is one of them. I donu0026#39;t go too much for the violence, but the movie was entertaining and original.”
