With all of the harsh and negative criticisms of this film let's look at what is good... Sorry, my mind was still left on dumb because this movie has about as much intelligence as my 3 year old. But does it take a genius to realize the crew took the pay day and revealed their inner latex S&M fetish? Antonio Banderas and Lucy Liu look terrific and are pure eye candy, as is the cinematography. If only more attention was spent on the script as the detail and focus on the rain drops, then we would talking about a genre definer. Gregg Henry still can chew a scene like it was Body Double again. Ray Park proves he can butcher an accent like anybody else can but at least he puts forth an effort to stretch the limitations of the script and make something unique. Best of all is the shoot out in the Mall which can be placed amongst any popcorn flick and excel, and that scene should actually be studied and broken down to the blue print because I wouldn't have minded 2 hours of that instead of a thing called PLOT intruding itself in this movie. To save yourself some headache, turn down the volume and put on your favorite techno music mix and watch the movie that way, trust me it still makes sense.
