I’v had a slight fascination combined with repulsion for John Woo’s movies. I like the action for awhile but eventually get quite bored (I’m not joking or exaggerating; I had to fast-forward through parts of hard-boiled and face-off). But I keep thinking his pacing will improve and a World Magazine article from the nineties got me into his camp because he credited a Christian group with his survival as a child.

All that is to say, I’m more than a little intrigued about his new movie, and especially his associated new MMORPG.
