The One
“Stealing the power of the universes one by one.”
Certified Crap. CrapScore 67, rated by 1 admin.
Higher CrapScores mean more entertainingly bad. How we score movies.
A rogue traveller kills alternate versions of himself to concentrate their power, leaving another Jet Li to stop him. The multiverse premise provides a direct route to exaggerated fights and early-2000s digital action. Its emotional range is narrow, but the central duel is easy to sell to an action crowd.
