my rating: Thirteen stick figure snuff drawings out of seventeen.

what possessed me: I decided to check this out because I can’t say no to Dakota Fanning, except apparently, for the last eight movies she’s released. Plus, it’s all action and superpowers, so I figured I’d make Cracka suffer (which, apparently, she didn’t really).

what i learned: Comic book nicknames for people with superpowers sound exceedingly silly when real people say them.

you may also enjoy: Heroes, Chungking Express, Wanted, The Island, Léon

tangential thought: Seeing this movie got me excited to go to Hong Kong again. But I get a little delusional whenever I see movies that glamorize locations with fancy action and eye-catching cinematography. So I’ll probably wander the streets trying to steal fishball skewers with my mind.
