Plenty of Action;No Satisfaction

A full-throttle, martial arts thriller, Rogue Assassin stars Jet Li and Jason Statham as two adversaries set on a violent collision course in the Asian mob underground.

After his partner is brutally murdered by the infamous assassin Rogue, FBI agent Jack Crawford vows to find the elusive killer and personally avenge his partner's death. But Rogue proves untraceable until three years later when he resurfaces to ignite a bloody turf war between Chinese mob leader Chang and Japanese Yakuza boss Shiro. Eager to capture Rogue once and for all, Crawford leads his team of crime specialists headlong into the conflict. But Crawford's thirst for vengeance jeopardizes his professional judgment, and as the violence escalates, Crawford finally comes face to face with his enemy to discover that nothing about Rogue or his plan is quite what it seems.

The final twist and revelation even though good, was not executed well and as such fails to deliver the punch. You leave the cinema deranged with no satisfaction at all.
