Romeo Must Die
In A World Of Vicious Rivalries And Violent Betrayals Only One Thing Is
Sure.
In this modern day Romeo and Juliet, kung fu action star Jet Li plays Romeo to
hip-hop singer, Aaliyah Haughton's Juliet. Li is an ex-cop investigating the
murder of his brother, who had ties with the Chinese mafia in America. Aaliyah
plays the daughter of the American mob boss. Neither side approves of their
romance, so, obviously, kung fu action ensues, with a soundtrack by Aaliyah.
Critic Reviews:

- " Everyone can enjoy the main special effect in the movie: Jet Li. " – Mac Verstandig
- " What impresses me about this film is its consistency in terms of characterization. " – John R. McEwen
