Critic Reviews
It's one thing for a script to set the framework for an action film -- it's quite another when the script gets in the way.
The non-fighting parts of Kiss of the Dragon are, despite the presence of co-star Bridget Fonda, completely non-compelling. It's a proud convention in films like this for fans to mark time during exposition, waiting patiently for the action to start up again, and Kiss is very much in that tradition.

Mr. Li is a master not only of martial arts, but of composure; no one does nothing better. The film itself is no great shakes.
What goes on when Li isn't fighting the bad guys isn't worth discussing; it's that stupid.
As though fatalistically compelled, all three leads self-destruct: Li is as flat, colorless, and stiff as a panel of Sheetrock, Karyo plays his every syllable in overdrive, and Fonda seems trapped in the midst of a failed screen test for Pretty Woman II.
