Jet Li's Meltdown

no, he didn't have a nervous breakdown, no he didn't invent a new delicious cheese sandwich,  its just the hilarious repackaging that Columbia did a few years back for one of my favorite Jet Li movies, 1995's " High Risk" ( 鼠胆龍威).  The title is one thing, the 'reimagined' cover artwork is another: They did this to a few of his classic 90s movies actually.  Its hard to tell which movies they are just from the covers and new titles.  I happened upon this while doing some research for work (not about Jet, but about another artist in the film). A review of this version of 'Meltdown' is here:  http://www.dvdcult.com/rev_Meltdown.htm

Flagday - oh my, you've never seen the real version? Just the rap-version?!? you owe it to Jet to see the real version ASAP! this movie is actually pretty good for what it is (a Speed + Die Hard go Asia over-the-top production by Wong Jing). As for the Jackie parody... it is EXTREMELY biting, and I think Jackie was probably pretty Pissed Off, but its also kind of hilarious to see how closely they parody Jackie's real dad and manager.

Eyeh - yes, by happening to be the bodyguard of one of the hundreds of guests who are taken hostage by the same guy who killed his family in a ransom ploy years earlier. What a revenge plot if ever there was one!!!
