The storyline is ok and the actors & actresses are fine as well, just that i'm not really drawn into the whole movie. This British actor Scott Adkins is so damn hot~ just look at his body, i bet your nose will bleed instantly :P

Kinda love the way Mika Hijii speak in english, very fluent and the way she pronounce is not bad too. I wonder how long does it takes her to train her english~ but anyway, i have googled, she's not very popular in the big screen, but you can see her in a few tv drama instead.
