	Review: The Art of War (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-05)
		The Art of War, a somewhat pretentiously slick and stylish thriller from director Christian Duguay ( Screamers), is as sporadically entertaining as it is preposterous.
		One thing to appreciate about The Art of War (the title of which, by the way, is taken from the book by Sun Tsu, whose philosophies are occasionally referenced) is its fast pace.
		While there have been genre films of this sort to transcend their simple origins ( Enemy of the State comes to mind), The Art of War is content to remain safely within the constraints of the formula, as intellectually unfulfilling as that approach might be.

	The Art of War (2000/I) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-05)
		The Art of War refers to an ancient handbook by a mighty Asian general named Sun Tsu, who hypothesized that wars can be won without physical combat.
		According to the action flick "The Art of War," Tsu's theories apply to the world of business and politics as they do to war.
		There's enough action in this movie to classify it as a mixture of material arts and a James Bond, but after one perplexing situation after another, we simply toss our arms and stop caring altogether.

	Sun Tzu-The Art of War
		The simplicity of the Art of War as appossed to other Chinese texts on strategy such as the Master of Demon Valley (Cleary: 1996) means the text does not specify certain areas of strategy and exclude others.
		The art of war follows the principles of Taoism in that it stresses that nature and the universe are not complicated and that simplicity is the true way, not the human complexities of culture.
		The art of war is known for its use of politics in warfare.

	The Art of War Movie Review by Anthony Leong from MediaCircus.net
		" The Art of War " marks the return of actor Wesley Snipes to the action arena, which he last visited in the 1998 vampire-actioner " Blade ".
		The most noticeable shortfall of "The Art of War" is the film's uninteresting and unintelligible script.
		If it were not for the participation of Snipes, "The Art of War" probably would have languished among the other dozens of B-quality action films released straight-to-video each year, which usually star Ice-T or Christopher Lambert.

	JoBlo reviews the movie "Art of War"
		This movie was doubly interesting to watch for me since I was one of the few to see an early test screening of the film back in January.
		The art of war had a predictable plot and its content was mixed with political mumbo-jumbo, but other than that the movie was great.
		It wasn't the greatest movie and the story is too complex for me. I just really enjoyed all the kick ass moves Snipes pulls on everyone and the last fight of the movie is really good.

	SPLICEDwire \| "The Art of War" review (2000)
		From that point on, "The Art of War" becomes a convoluted yarn of international conspiracies thinner than the paper the script is printed on and full of they-can't-be-serious espionage concepts, like that our stoic stud hero is a United Nations fl ops agent who does the dirty work of the power-hungry Secretary General (Donald Sutherland).
		But this movie takes itself way too seriously for that kind of thing, and before long Wes has been double-crossed and finds himself on the run from enemies unknown, framed for the assassination of a Chinese diplomat who was about to sign a momentous trade agreement.
		But despite attempts to at least give "The Art of War" a similar look and feel to "Mission: Impossible" and/or "Ronin," this flick has little in common with such adrenaline-driven intrigue thrillers, both of which at least had some discernable cohesion upon multiple viewings.

	The Art of War
		Mix in a little bit of Rising Sun (the movie Snipes ruined) and a little bit of U.S. Marshals and the result is The Art of War, a hokey action thriller.
		Sun Tzu wrote The Art of War thousands of years ago in China as a manual on warfare.
		The basic gist is that China is on the brink of opening diplomatic and economic ties to the rest of the world, and some people are not too happy about it.

	The Art of War
		The Art of War, starring Wesley Snipes, is your typical action film that has the hero in some government covert operation then is set up to be the scapegoat for the same operation he works for.
		While other similar films try to surprise you with that concept, Art of War tries to convince you otherwise.
		The director is Christain Duguay, and outside of a few technical mistakes does a good job in keeping the audience in suspense as to who the bad guy really is. I am sorry to say, I had it figured out immediately, but was willing to waffle a little to try and enjoy the suspense.

	Hustle and Flow - The Filthy Critic
		People want to believe in movies like this, I think, because we all wish we had some romantic up-by-the-bootstraps story to tell.
		The main problem, though, is that for a movie about getting up by the bootstraps, I never was convinced that Howard did it or deserved it.
		Usually, these kinds of movies are about people who get fame as a nice bonus for becoming the best fighter, best dancer or whatever.

	Ong-Bak... uses its head (not to mention, feet, fists and knees)!
		My wife suggested I tune up on my "Marital Arts", which in hindsight (I guess), means I should be buying her flowers and boxes of chocolates and cleaning the toilet and all that so-fun-it-chafes Valentine's Day bee's wax.
		From the exciting opening contest to the touching celebration of the finale, there is a deep-rooted sense of honor and respect for Thai culture, especially the rustic and rural villages with their own traditions and timelessness.
		It might not be the greatest art of war movie ever made, but you could do a lot worse, and this surprising Thai export is a well-balanced must see.

		The movie then proceeds to proves that statement to be wrong.
		THE ART OF WAR, though appearing to be a stylish, high energy action thriller, is, in reality, an incomprehensible mess of a movie.
		The title is borrowed from the writings of Sun Tsu, a Chinese philosopher and battle strategist of the 5th century BC who, in his writings, observed that "all warfare is based on deception." He further instructs on how it is possible to destroy your enemy without engaging in a physical war.

	Flipside Movie Emporium: The Art of War Movie Review
		The name refers to Sun Tzu's famous text on military philosophy, which is supposed to connect to the film's story of a looming cold war between America and China.
		Snipes has clearly settled on the B-action film as his genre of choice: his physical skills are impressive enough, and he's shown a lot of charisma in past action roles (notably his chiseled death machine in Blade and his giggling psychopath in Demolition Man).
		The Art of War has neither of these things; just a second-rate director and a star who really should have known better.

		Wesley Snipes plays a man who does undercover work for the United Nations and finds his life turned upside down when he is accused of assassinating a Chinese politician.

		Although shades of The Fugitive are apparent in Art of War, it really owes more to Mission: Impossible with it's high tech devices and it's spy thriller flavor.

		Plot-wise it's a routinely complicated thriller full of double-crosses and sudden shifts of perspective, as Wesley Snipes, secret fixer for the UN, tries to find out who killed the Chinese Ambassador to stop a trade pact and what it is that interpreter Marie Matiko knows that means people are trying to kill her.
		The action is heavy, snipes looks good, his little chinese sidekick is fine, though I wish she actually had more attitude than the movie initially suggests.

	Barbershop Movie Review: The Art of War
		The Art of War has so many fast edits, camera sweeps, and fl and white flashes that it's hard to follow the story and hard to say for sure what the picture is all about, when all is said and done.
		I thought the sound engineering in this action movie was almost too colorful and skillful for its own good.
		The film has a lot of plotting and scheming to deal with, and insanity becomes as thick (and about as exciting) as smog.
