Jet Li is as innovative as Jackie Chan when it comes to using props to do karate combat, although usually without the humor. One scene in "RMD" is an exception, however.
You also have to check out "Kiss of the Dragon," "Cradle 2 the Grave," and "Unleashed." I think he's a pretty good actor. OF course, a classic in this genre is Chou Young Fat's "The Replacement Killers," with Mira Sorvino.
Thanks for the "edumacation" on Jet Li! I see a trip to Blockbuster in my future.
