One of the Best films created for the year 2000
by James E. Sparks Jr.
Well first off let me start by saying I don't care what people say about the movie or Snipes, it was a great movie. For those who think different, they didn't really see the movie or botherd to take a look at the time frame of when it was created. I have seen almost all of Wesley's action films but this one is the best to date next to blade. From the suspence to the martial art action sequences, Snipes delivers. When watching the movie I understood exactly what was going on just by the actions of the characters alone. He worked for the UN and was setup by the UN is the whole story in a nut shell but the trip taking to find out the truth makes the movie worth watching. If your looking for some action that involves a twist of Martial arts and spy technology this is one film to add to your list. I only wish Wesley Snipes can bring that much energy and more in his films over the next few years(if of course he dosen't go to jail).
5/5
Great action flick
by LAPRINCESS
If you liked Art of War II, you need to see this one--not BETTER, but just as good. Lots of great action and unexpected twists with a very satisfactory ending. Don't hesitate to try this one.
1/5
Wish zero star was an option
by Trish S. (GA USA)
I fast forwarded through most of the movie to get to the confirmation of who I knew were the "bad guys", which I had figured out in the first five minutes. The most annoying part of the movie is the voice of the main Asian female character. I swear it was like a bad voice over of a Japanese film! They used every cliche in the book - double crossing partners, sympathetic but hardened NY cop, a visit to the seedy mafia underbelly, etc. Skip it.
4/5
"Do you know who your enemy is"
by Nuisance (Miami)
First of all the average for this movie is outrageous. 2 and 1/2 stars for The Art Of War? Have you guys ever seen The Marksman? If you've seen that disaster then you've seen Wesley's worst movie. A three and 1/2 star average would be more realistic. Then again I tend to forget the bandwagoneers that I'm dealing with. These are the same pseudo-intellectuals that bash Crank Yankers for not having a plot not realizing that a show consisting of muppets and crank calls is not supposed to have a plot! At any rate....
Story: Neil Shaw is a special operatives agent for the U.N. His life takes a turn for the worst when he is framed for a murder of a political leader. From then on he searches for clues to who the real killer is along with a reluctant female accomplice(played by Marie Matiko).
I know that the movie has flaws and I'm aware that at times the story tends to get convoluted and drags a bit but I still like this movie. I cant help what I entertained by and I was entertained with this movie. Wesley was good as Neil Shaw and so was Michael Biehn(who looks a twin brother of Joe Pantoliano) is good as an associate turned enemy as well as Anne Archer. Look, this movie was meant to be a popcorn flick and on that level it succeeds. The action scenes are stylish and well choreographed and the story has holes and tends to be confusing sometimes. Its a trade off that I can live with. I've had more fun watching this movie than most of the overrated blockbusters of recent. If you can look past this movie's flaws and enjoy it for what it is then cool. If not why waste your time?

WOW!!..Didn't Know Wesley Made This One!
by R. Duran (Yankee Stuck In The South)
I'm watching this movie on tnt channel right now and ....WOW! Crazy-Great Movie!! Wesley is at his BEST with ACTION films. This is a GOTTA Have Dvd for sure!!!
The Art of War Summary
Covert United Nations Operative Wesley Snipes Relies On All The Deadly Tricks Of His Trade To Outwit Conpsirators Bent On Destroying The International Organization's Credibility. Special Features: Trailer, Cast And Director Film Highlights, And More.
The Art of War
is the first action movie with a hero who works for the United Nations--the U.N. Covert Operations Unit, to be specific. Who knew there was such a thing? Wesley Snipes plays Shaw, their top operative, who's unafraid of dropping several stories from one ledge of a skyscraper to another. When the Chinese ambassador is assassinated, it threatens the stability of an impending trade agreement that the secretary-general (played by Donald Sutherland) has worked so hard to achieve. Shaw gets arrested for the assassination, but who's really responsible? Is it the wily Chinese capitalist? A seemingly affable FBI agent? Only a lovely U.N. interpreter (Marie Matiko) believes he's innocent, especially when someone tries to knock her off and Shaw is the only person she can turn to... well, you get the idea. The script is neither original nor comprehensible, but that's not why you'd want to watch a movie like
The Art of War
--it's the action. And the action is pretty good, particularly earlier on when the confusions of the plot don't matter as much. Michael Biehn (
The Terminator
,
The Rock
) does a serviceable job as one of Shaw's associates, Anne Archer (
Fatal Attraction
,
Clear and Present Danger
) tries to seem complicated as the head of the Covert Operations Unit, and Maury Chaykin (
The Mask of Zorro
,
Devil in a Blue Dress
) is dependable as ever as the FBI guy.
