Very Cool!!!

Most undeservingly overhyped movie of all time??

Great Film overall

This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.

We all know what these type of movies are trying to do, and as such, give them the benefit of the doubt. However, "Covert Operation" has too many flaws to rate any higher than a 2 out of 10. The portrayal of the North Koreans alone is horrible. I can only recommend this film as a poor attempt at a dark comedy. The dialogue is difficult to hear, and the accents are also very heavy. Much of the action is shot with the camera moving, another reason I do not care for the film. I like to see the action in my action films. The plot was hard for me to follow, but it seemed to contain more holes than substance. Also used through out the entire film was poor lighting, again making it difficult to follow the action, and plot. In conclusion, "Covert Operation" is a poor attempt at action, and should be watched with caution, if at all.

Very decent movie overall.Action and fight scenes are really good, Sedina Balde is a real bad ass and very charismatic. Some of the fights are very well filmed (the upside down double fight is very cool, the fight on the North-Korean version of the world map is just great). Apart from the action, there is a lot of fun scenes and nice references to other movies. There are some really nice work with lights throughout the entire movie. Some poor dialogs at times, some scenes also seem a bit "cheap" here and there, but all in all, I had a very good time watching this movie.

A colleague of mine, which is a friend of one of the producers asked me to watch and review this film. I didn't really know what to expect coming into the movie as I'm more of a sci-fi kinda guy. To my surprise I was quite entertained...Solid story line, very good action scenes and a believable cast. What stood out the most was the lead actor...charismatic, sincere in his role and quite skillful for the action genre. For what it is (a non-Hollywood controlled-budget movie), I'm giving it a perfect mark. Keep up the good work...I would definitely like to see more from the lead actor and this creative group.

I had a real pleasure watching this movie... It's actually a good surprise for me. The story takes us to different and surprising places during the whole movie. The characters are well written and the actors make a good performance. The cast is international and brings an interesting variety of acting. The action is well directed and martial arts sequences are amazing with every time a different place with different opponents always extraordinary choreographed. The director succeeds to mix many genres and each of them has it own "Momentum". Some shots of Hong Kong are outstanding as well as the "special one" in the bunker. I look forward to watching the sequel. A must see action film
