This is some pretty classic 90s, I love Mark Dacascos, and if you think you can sort of visualise in your head what a 1990s Mark Dacascos as an unwilling assassin with a mystic tattoo romancing a woman he was supposed to kill might look like, and go "Yeah that's what I like in a movie" then, well it is that, so sure, give it a try. But if you go "I only like good stories told in a three-act structure with human characters" then maybe don't. Final rating:★★½ - Had a lot that appealed to me, didn’t quite work as a whole.
