About Kiss of the Dragon

Kiss of the Dragon (French: Le Baiser mortel du dragon) is a 2001 English-language French action film directed by Chris Nahon, written and produced by French filmmaker Luc Besson and starring an international cast led by Jet Li, Bridget Fonda, and Tchéky Karyo. It follows a Chinese police officer who is sent to Paris to assist in the arrest of a Chinese mob boss. Framed for murder and hard pressed to prove his innocence, he teams up with a woman who has been forced into prostitution. Li wanted to take a realistic approach to the fight scenes and forgo the CGI and wire work that had been popularized by films such as Charlie's Angels and The Matrix. Consequently, most of the action sequences did not use CGI or wire work; only two scenes required CGI enhancement, and only one scene involved wire work.
