Kiss of the Dragon (Full Screen Edition) Summary Martial Arts Genius Jet Li Explodes Onto The Screen With An Intensity Not Seen Since Bruce Lee. "kiss Of The Dragon" Is Not Merely A Thriller But A Shocker. (san Francisco Chronicle) China's Top Secret Agent Visits Paris On A Pleasure Trip Only To Encounter Government Espionage At The Highest Level. "li's Action Sequences Are Like An Oil Fire, Spilling From One Room Into The Next And Lighing Up In The Interiors With Heat And Wreakage"! (the New York Times)

Let's face it: No one is usually checking a Jet Li movie for the verbal sparring. In Kiss of the Dragon, Chinese undercover agent Li chops his way through Paris after he's framed in some sketchily defined drug sting operation. The fight sequences are tough and quite brutal, and the over-the-top finale is arguably worth the price of admission, wherein an implacable Li takes on the entire Paris Police Bureau, working his way up toward police chief Tchéky Karyo's office through cops, a pair of peroxide-blond twin henchmen, and a whole class of kung fu cadets. Co-screenwriter Luc Besson (La Femme Nikita) should know by now what makes for a nifty genre piece, but the woeful dialogue is a shame, and there aren't nearly enough action sequences to get your blood boiling. Poor Bridget Fonda gives it the old school try in a thankless role as an ex-junkie prostitute from the Midwest whose young daughter is being held captive by duplicitous police chief/drug lord/pimp Karyo (who fairly inhales the scenery). Director Chris Nolan might have pushed further the strangers-in-a-strange-land camaraderie between Li and Fonda, but the script still would've sunk him. --Steve Wiecking
