Hong Kong action hero Chow Yun-Fat is required to share honors and screen time with the crinkled brow and lopsided smirk of Seann William Scott (American Pie), as a New York pickpocket who learned his martial artistry by projecting and mimicking kung-fu movies in a Chinatown grindhouse. ("The most undisciplined youth I have ever laid eyes on," says the gravity-defying Tibetan of the gravity-deficient American, little knowing what a buttery compliment he is dishing out.) Just the ticket for the martial-arts fan who felt that these ass-kicking fantasies were not juvenile enough already. Ineptly directed by music-video and ad man Paul Hunter. (2003) — Duncan Shepherd
