Even by this film's standards, the climatic gunfight between Shaw and Sun Yi stands out for being completely incompetent, with neither being able to hit each other despite being stood behind couches only a few feet apart.

look like a bunch of complete morons, it means that most of the 'bad guys' that Shaw killed and injured during the film were South Korean law enforcement officers!

The film's ending twist - Sun Yi was the arms dealer Shaw was sent to take out all along, and Kim, the man who Shaw actually thought was the arms dealer, was in fact another U.N.

Shaw and Jason keep making stupid mistakes that allow the bad guys to track them.

Then he stabs a would-be suicide bomber (who was there as part of an unrelated assassination attempt) to death, also without being noticed, and just walks off and leaves him to die without even bothering to make sure he properly defused his bomb.

Absurd opening scene, where Shaw somehow manages to assassinate an arms dealer using a bomb in a busy Los Angeles street without anyone noticing.

Annoying editing, with scenes that randomly zoom in on a character midway through, then zoom back out again.

Shaw keeps randomly dropping quotes from Sun Tzu's The Art of War, which is something he didn't do in either of the previous two films, and most of the quotes don't have any relevance to his situation.

in the The Art of War II that they ended up making.

Bear in mind that this was filmed with the intention of being the second film in the series, and Shaw wasn't working for the U.N.

No explanation of why Shaw, who faked his death at the end of the original film, is suddenly working for the United Nations again.

Incredibly bad action sequences, most of which consist of people just stood in the open firing their guns in random directions, with objects in the background occasionally exploding (even when they're not in anyone's line of fire).

The only actor who gives an even vaguely decent performance is Warren Derosa, and even he can get a little annoying at times. Treach is a simply awful replacement for Wesley Snipes, and shows no talent whatsoever when it comes to acting or action scenes.The operation goes badly wrong, however, resulting in all but one of his team being killed, and Shaw himself being framed for murder, leaving Shaw, his assistant Jason and a woman known as Sun Yi having to go on the run and try to alert the United States. Agent Neil Shaw is sent to Seoul, South Korea to investigate reports that North Korean rebels are planning to purchase a nuclear weapon and detonate it at peace talks between the two nations.
