A nyakörv

Tinédzserként egy ilyen filmről álmodtam. Kár, hogy csak most jött. A jól működő dráma, az egyszerű akciófelvetés, a kiváló harci koreográfia és a francia báj példátlan kombinációja. Jet Li végre emberi és szerethető, Morgan Freeman a számára legjellemzőbb mentor pozíciójában van, és hozzá Massive Attack. (2007.11.26)

A picture full of clichés that works thanks to the original directing, the actors, the modest running length and decent pace, despite it being a rather obvious variation on Léon: The Professional. The alternation of “intimate" sequences (although we have seen this a hundred times already) with action works pretty well, but unfortunately they don’t seem to belong to the same movie, which is also the greatest problem with this movie. And although there isn’t much action, what there is is worth it. (2005.08.05)

A nice surprise in the form of Jet Li's introvert stylization, decent content, which was particularly reinforced by Morgan Freeman, and of course brilliant choreographies, in which Jet Li's main talent - martial arts - stands out. If I take away the fact that this film is mentally exhaustive and predictable in its plot, Unleashed remains an intelligent and well-filmed spectacle that is more than just an action film. Leterrier quite pleasantly combined the features of Hollywood action with European slowness and harsh humor. (2006.04.24)

Amélie from the gritty corners of Glasgow, or the perfect combination of the fierce style of young French directors at the turn of the millennium and the fantastic action choreography of the Hong Kong masters in an enchantingly naive and aggressively brutal action fairy tale, which as a European high-concept blockbuster is also wonderful historical evidence of the peak of production achieved by Besson’s Europa Corp., as no one else has ever put together such a diverse mix of niche-hip names (Massive Attack, RZA, Jet Li, Morgan Freeman, Bob Hoskins, Luc Besson, Yuen Woo-Ping).

A classic, quality, but no longer surprising Jet-Li action flick, poorly masked by a higher message in the form of unquestionable ideas about the need for friendship, love and the fact that the right family is always a support. Had it stayed with just that message, led by the always great Freeman, it would have been a great film. But combined with the breaking of all possible limbs, it's another Made by Besson single-use piece of crap. (2005.10.24)
