Inclubabu Plot so thin, it passes unnoticed.

Beystiman It's fun, it's light, [but] it has a hard time when its tries to get heavy.

PiraBit if their story seems completely bonkers, almost like a feverish work of fiction, you ain't heard nothing yet.

Kayden This is a dark and sometimes deeply uncomfortable drama

rps-2 It would be interesting to count the number of rounds fired in this film. It is a gun freak's delight. And after almost two hours of bang bang and pow pow, we wonder why there is a problem with violence in our society. Even more offensive is the fact that this movie, shot in Vancouver with the involvement of Corus Entertainment and the Canadian Movie Network, is subsidized by the Canadian government! There is no mention of Vancouver. It's all about US senators and the CIA and Los Angeles. Bad enough when the Americans come up here and use Canadian cities as stand ins for theirs. But when craven Canadian film makers do it themselves, pandering to the US market and being timidly embarrassed about their own country, it's embarrassing and pitiful. Is there any other country in the world with so little cinematic backbone? The story is the usual good guys bad guys confrontation. It would be forgettable enough but the cinematography people were allowed to go berserk with totally needless attempts at "creativity." Negative images. Wild jump shots. Excessive pans and zooms. It looks like the work of somebody who just bought their first home video camera and is playing with all the "neat" features.

Volken Perhaps you like or perhaps you hate the first Art Of War. However, considering limitations of this genre, what Christian Duguay presented from his creative side is truly fantastic.Superb dosage of action. Action mostly intelligent at that. Cinematic side of the first one is exceptional and truly atmospheric, while sound treatment was of the same caliber. Well collaborated efforts with fine results. It is very clear to anyone who has seen the first part; that story and the movie itself, never really anticipated further conclusion; nor it required any sequel for that matter.This could be any "of the shelf" action movie with Wesley and with title that would less embarrass both Wesley and the rest of the collaborating crew. I wont even path into this story. Just awful ! Technical and visual side of this movie is incredibly ambivalent. From time to time I had a feeling of watching a TV movie or high packed TV commercial. A few nice shoots, but what remains is almost vaccinated from cinematic experience. Wesley, I like you, always did. But please, learn the art of choosing the Sun Tzus among writers, directors and casting! And please, don't be cheap on production like this!

wildpeace10 The first one was pretty good except for the bloody scenes which i pretty much disliked.This one is clearly a low budget product from the director of the contractor, a film which was even superior to this one.It has fights in the dark where you get the impression that snipes'double did most if not all of the fighting.The DVD even has alternative fight scenes which really don't look that much different from those actually in the film.In about every snipes action film straight to DVD, i can find something to like and this one isn't different but you need patience and i really was getting to lose mine at 45 minutes.Something interesting happens at about 49 minutes(unfortunately it starts getting in the flat and boring zone oncein a while after that) and you can tell until the end that the scriptisn't the main problem but the directing is.it's mostly flat and boring but a better directorwith a bigger budget could have made something good out of it.I also really hated the ending.You see ... there's a traitor(not such a big surprise when you see so many movies) at the end and that person is being killed in cold blood by snipes.The whole thing is so flat and dull that it simply doesn't feel true and leaves the viewer unsatisfied.This art of war sequel is indeed a betrayal of the first one since it hardly has any real connection to it (bringing marie makito could have helped) and is so far below in quality.Apparently nobody was aiming high with this and it shows.

powtail Let me be perfectly clear. I'm 24 years old and I've never written a review for anything in my life. I've seen movies and used multiple products that I feel were terrible and did not deserved my money, yet I never felt like writing or complain about them. But this movie is so HORRIBLE and BAD! it really fueled this comment. DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME WATCHING THIS MOVIE. IS BORING and THE PLOT IS MEDIOCRE. I truly wasted my money and my time. Hopefully I did the world some good warning some people of this tragedy. You've been warned! I bought the DVD thinking the movie would be at least half as good as the first Art of War. I'm so disappointed with the production and Wesley Snipes role. I did not expected a blockbuster movie but at least a decent showing. I was wrong.
