One of the worst movies I've seen recently
Because the plot was so bad, didnt have any suspense you better make sure the action scenes are great, but they were just as bad. Using guys from the retirement village means you have to rely on heavy editing, and that is why you didnt know what was going on during the action scenes.
The whole point of having Jet Li is so he can do something like this:

Instead they just gave him a gun, and had him say very cheesy one liners.
