Trivia
Jet Li stated in multiple interviews that he was not happy with this film nor its production. He went as far to say that this movie "sucked" and he had no confidence in director Philip G. Atwell. Even halfway into filming, he knew that it would receive mediocre ratings and not make profit.

Goofs
Everyone in the movie pronounces the word "yakuza" as "yah-KOOZ-uh" with the emphasis on the middle syllable. The more correct pronunciation was and is "YAH-koo-zuh" with more emphasis on the first syllable. This is not only closer to the Japanese pronunciation, but it's how American criminal investigators who work Asian organized crime actually pronounce it, especially those in the San Francisco bay area, where police have been working Asian organized crime for over a century.

Quotes
Goi: My gun's bigger than yours.

Reasons to see WAR

Reasons to see WAR

WAR kicks ass, and you should see it a lot of times, for these reasons:

Jason Statham yelling at people, and then kicking ass. In other words, being himself.

Jet Li killing a guy by kicking him in the face....and that's not his best kill.

Random girls getting nude for no reason.

Ninjas. Just when you think this movie couldn't rock any harder, they put Ninjas in the movie.

A twist ending that would make M. Night Shawhocares *beep* himself.

A car chase every 10 minutes. There's even one with motorcycles.

Violence. Lots of it. Guns, blades, blood, kungfu, decapitations, the bases are covered.

-Jet Li and Jason Statham fighting each other. It's as epic as you might think.

So, in conclusion, if you, 1. Like things that are awesome. 2. Have a pair of testicles. 3. Need to see a movie that rocks for a change. 4. Are a human being.

...than WAR is for you.
