Reviews

Despite a promising premise, 'The One' fails to deliver a cohesive narrative or emotional depth, leaving audiences feeling unsatisfied and disconnected from the characters. Many critics found the plot overly reliant on action sequences at the expense of meaningful storytelling. Rotten Tomatoes gave the film a meager 13% rating, criticizing its lack of originality and character development. Metacritic concurred, providing a score of 25/100, highlighting the film's struggles to engage viewers beyond its visual spectacle. While Jet Li's performance is commendable, it is not enough to salvage the movie from its shortcomings. IMDb users rated 'The One' at 5.9/10, reflecting the mixed reception it received upon release.
