The Art of War


Our hero is a secret special operative for the United Nations, who gets called in when normal diplomatic channels fail. While the UN is trying to get the Chinese to sign a trade deal, the Chinese ambassador is assassinated on live television, and our hero is framed. Since he technically does not exist, he is left to sort out the problem himself, which leads to plenty of action and intrigue...

Ian Douglas: I saw the preview a few weeks ago, but when I had to write the summary above, I realised I could not remember what the film was about. Reading other reviews brought back vague recollections, and then I remembered that it was mostly ''tedious'', with the real baddie relatively easy to identify early on.
