The Good, the Bad and the Black Market:

• The movie is a mixed bag, meaning that although it is enjoyable, it is not exactly a great film.

• The movie has great action sequences and performances from the cast, but all those were hindered by several shortcomings like visible and obvious wire work, forgotten heavy injury, and an abundance of coincidence.

• The movie jumps from contrivance to convenience and back again, and that seems to be the genre convention of it, but it gets annoying very easily.

• Nevertheless, Louis Koo deliveres some really impressive action in the movie which is pretty rare, as he's not usually associated with physically challenging movies, and he even kept up with Tony Jaa.
