ANOTHER CHINESE MOVIE LOTS OF ACTION DOES HAS A STORY LINE BUT U HAVE TO FOLLOW VERY CLOSELY TO SEE IT (JET LI WAS IN THIS MOVIE & I HAD NEVER HEARD OF THE MOVIE THAT HE HAD DONE)
Rated by buyers -
It's one of the best martial-art movies ever. The actions are riveting, intense, fast and brutal. It's definitely one of the best movies of Donnie Yen. Others are Flash Point and Iron Monkey.
I own it. I've watched it three times.

Ok, I hope that anyone reading this gives me a chance to explain my rating. I know how big Kill Zone is and my friends don't hesitate to tell me either. I can understand because anything with the amazing Sammo Hung and Donnie Yen is a must see. So Kill Zone is no doubt incredible but trust me when I say how much I cannot overlook its huge flaw.
Basically Kill Zone is very simple, Sammo Hung (Wong Po) is a triad boss who cant seem to be detained. Yen (Ma Kwun) among others is a hard working detective trying to put Wong Po behind bars but it seems that Wong Po runs everything, even some cops. Wong Po is very slick and finds his way out every time he gets captured. Yen seems to be the only detective that is capable of finding him and taking him down but his partners are getting cut down quickly. When Kwun has a huge dispute with his superiors over how the case is being handled, he quits and this is where the real action begins. The question now is if Kwun can take out a vicious force of triads by himself and survive to tell about it.
SPL had amazing fight scenes, choreography, stunts, and camera work. Especially the angles, great slow motion takes and replays on breath taking stunts. The problem was not the story for me but the overall pacing was awful. The film was very slow and the fight scenes were badly placed. If the action was managed better by maybe putting some more in the middle and some in the beginning, the film would have been the classic it could have been. You literally ask yourself if you have the right movie because the opening scene feels like it takes 25 to 30 minutes with boring talk and no action.
What I loved about SPL was the realness and grit of the fight scenes in there. Yen did an amazing job choreographing the scenes in there and he showed amazing athleticism and range with his stunts. For me the acting was not a problem, the story was not a problem, but overall SPL gets 3 stars for great action scenes but bad pacing and placing of the scenes. It's a good film worth watching for the battle between Yen and Hung. Also the fight between Yen and that crazy guy with the white jacket was sick. I hope people understand my rating cause I like the scenes but hated the flaws I pointed out.

It sounded like a great idea at the time: A few good lookin' police officers, one ugly and mean mob boss, lots of fight scenes and great visuals. FUN!!!!! Let's go make this movie!
....not. There's one thing they're forgetting: A good storyline. A few minutes in, I was thinking "OK, did they accidentally place this under the Action genre instead of the Drama section?" But 10 minutes later: Time to switch to Action mode. A few cops in Hong Kong, one with a Tumour and is about to retire, raiding a drug house. Ooh, this is exciting!!!!!
Killzone is a thriller from the director of Flashpoint, which is a Martial Arts action flick that certainly had me on the edge of my seat the entire time. I knew this would have a little more meat in the bun for me since I liked Flashpoint a lot. And this movie did have SOME meat in the bun- a dark, complex action thriller that has good fight scenes and good blood and gore. But on the other hand, this movie just bores me to tears.
Had it not have been for the fight scenes, this would have been a one star review. It is too slow to be an action movie in general, too depressing to be a cop drama, and too over-the-top to be a drama in general. But if you look at it from an extremist's point of view, this might grow on you when watching it. I know I didn't enjoy watching a single minute of it (despite good intentions and good action).

This is the worst excuse for a martial arts movie ever! Donnie and Sammo really let you down on this one. the plot sucks, the dialogue sucks, and there is very little action until about the last 20 minutes of the movie. I feel dumber for having fallen for the reviews written by the other people on amazon!
