All the excitement I was holding in for this movie was too much not to go see it. I was dissapointed off the bat. Brendan Fraser and Jet Li was great together but I totally didn't like Maria Bello's performance. I couldn't help thinking that the original Evelyn O'Connell wouldn't act like that. Rachel Weiz was a hard person to replace in this movie. I now see why she didn't do the movie. Maria Bello made here seem ditzy or just plan dumb. Now, Luke Ford is an upcoming actor but I didn't like his performance neither or the chemistry that he had with Brendan Fraser. It was totally annoying and childish in a way. John Hannah was great as usual in his role as Jonathan, I did like his sense of humor in some of his parts. Michelle Yeoh and Isabella Leong was fresh new talent and I love there moves.
The action was great, but the plot could of been written alot better. I watched it with horror what Maria Bello did to her character. She was a dissapointment to the kids and me. On the other hand, Jet Li gave a good performance as usual and I always liked his movements in his films. Brendan Fraser seem to be distant from his character somehow, maybe with all that divorce and court battle must of took its toll on him after all. Well, I look forward to seeing him in G.I. Joe and other movies. I hope to see Jet Li in some upcoming movies also.
