In Hong Kong, an experiment created 701 commandos to battle gang violence. When one of them went crazy, the project was canceled. Michael (Jet Li) sacrificed himself for his fellow soldiers to escape termination. He managed to escape. One year later, he's trying to live a quiet life as librarian Simon. Police Inspector Rock is his friend. Someone is wiping out the drug gangs and planting bombs in their bodies. Michael recognizes the bomb as something from the 701s. One explodes in the hospital. He decides to disguise himself as Black Mask to battle his former comrades.
It's a lot of shooting, a lot of explosions, and a lot of fights. It's another Universal Soldier. Karen Mok is fun. Jet Li does good action but his character is wooden. The story is simple. The action is stylized and there's plenty of it. In general, I don't mind these characters and I don't mind lots of action but there isn't much else.
