Unleashed by Louis Leterrier

Category: English

Probably one of the Jet Li's under appreciated roles and movies in general. Bob Hoskins captures Jet Li when he's a kid and trains him to be a living weapon, trained only to kill and basically everything non-human almost like a "dog". When his collar is removed, Danny goes on a mindless killing spree. Eventually the dog escapes and his helped by a blind musician portrayed by Morgan Freeman.

Bob Hoskins wants the dog back and bla bla!

The movie doesn't deal with any great themes barring some references to classical music. It's written by Luc Besson, and one wonders why does that even matter when the film is obviously not so well crafted.

Recommendation level: 2/5 - Just for Jet Li & Massive Attack's soundtrack! If you like action films and Jet Li then this would be a 5/5 for you.
