Cover Artwork Question
Who is the blonde girl on the cover as she doesn't appear to be in the film (unless I'm missing something)

shareNone of those people are in the movie.the distirbutors just put some hot chicks and people you haven't seen so the movie will sell,thats americans for ya.
shareI know, that is so weird. After I watched the movie, I was like "Who's the blonde?" I also thought I was missing something. But If the distributors put people on the cover who are not even in the movie, how come this has not happened with any other movie cover that I have seen?

the same went for operation condor
share..and the new fugly cover for Infernal Affairs
shareoh GOD dont start with the american cover of Infernal Affairs, its disgusting and totally ruins the mood of the whole film.
Check out the Euro-cover: http://images-eu.amazon.com/images/P/B0007DDRTG.08.LZZZZZZZ.jpg
yeah, I noticed that too. So insulting. I bet Jackie Chan and crew weren't pleased at all about this.
shareHa, I just checked out this flick and came here to ask the same thing. Yeah, none of those people are in the flick (well except for Chan) how weird...
shareI had heard good things about this movie and was very psyched to check it out as I love Chan's easy going humour and mad fighting styles. But as I saw it I got more and more frustrated - where were the people on the cover and where were the jets and parachute people?
Silly as it is with things on the cover that aren't in the film, the dubbing is utterly painful - totally out of synch - and when the story is as fragmented as is the case in the version I saw, one has to wonder if the dubbing missed out things, or if the Danish version has been cut, because the storyline is pretty much impossible to understand.
Jackie has some good moves and there are a couple of very pretty gels to look at for a few moments, but that is about the qualities that are to be found in this movie. The storyline in the Danish release is impossible to understand for anyone with a normal IQ and the quality of the effects are below par for what can be expected today.
A sorely disappointing flick and not one that can be recommended, unless you are a hardcore Jackie Chan fan.
4/10
i thought that's a nice touch with a poster, you people are boring :)

I always avoided this one like the plague because of the crappy cover. Everytime i saw the DVD on the shelves of my (now closed) local video store, i was always like "Geez, this must be one of those crappy movies that Chan made in the U.S.", i always thought that this was an American movie, i was wrong, i actually like Jackie's HK movies, i'm gonna track down the original Hong Kong version and watch it.
shareReview the normal version not a stupid Danish version. The only way I know you can give this movie a 4/10 is if the Danish version COMPLETELY took out the ending and the fighting sequences!
