Tony Jaa and Louis Koo are a couple of my favorite martial arts stars so I am not knocking them at all.
I really enjoyed this movie until about the last 10 minutes. Those minutes absolutely killed it for me. Probably the most convoluted ending to a movie that I have ever witnessed. Switching between 3 different scenes every minute just about drove me insane. In one you have a huge battle going on which was fascinating to watch. In another you have a little girl being stalked by a wolf-like creature in which for the entire scene you see it snarling and advancing one step - then you go back to another scene (which I forget what it was about) for a minute, back to the fighting scene for a minute, back to the little girl and the wolf snarling and taking another step, and on and on.
I was an eyelash away from just shutting the whole thing down. How anyone can rate this 9 or 10 is absolutely beyond me.
