The Replacement Killers

Versatile Hong Kong box office giant Chow Yun-Fat makes a Hollywood splash as a Chinese hitman beholden to a drug kingpin (Tsang, in an interesting reversal of his Hong Kong crusty cop persona). The good news is that he's free after one hit; the bad news is that the drug lord wants revenge on a cop who killed his son—by killing the cop's son. A tough-talking passport forger creates a new identity for our hero, but they've soon got to fight their way out to stay alive. First-timer Fuqua provides eye-candy visuals but little of the melodrama of his Hong Kong forebear (and executive producer), John Woo.
