My Comments: Today I saw this movie via DVD and I was amazed with the movie with several reasons. The location of this film makes me amazed while another reason is because the quality of the movie has a great quality and has the compatibility against the Hollywood movie. Introducing The Viral Factor. This movie is filmed 20% in Jordan and the remaining 80% filmed in the hearts of Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. It was an action packed movie with the casts of Nicholas Tse and Jay Chou who filmed this movie at several places in Kuala Lumpur including Putrajaya, Police Headquarters, KL High Court, Jalan Bukit Bintang, KLCC and Pavilion Kuala Lumpur. Not only that, this movie has several action scenes that was filmed in Kuala Lumpur and it's first of its kind in Malaysia where no international movies had done this before besides a movie from Jackie Chan years back. Have you seen cars being knocked off the streets of Kuala Lumpur and most importantly have you seen car bang into Pavilion and several shops located around Putrajaya and Bukit Bintang area and the shooting scenes around KL town?

Well, this movie says it all as it contains all these elements inside and now you see it. The action was great while the storyline was good too and it has the quality as per Hollywood type of movie. Also the casts which give a huge boosts to this movie and of course it will be Jay Chou second action movie of all after The Green Hornet. Nicholas Tse has the required experience for lots of action movie as well. I would recommend you to watch this movie if you have not watched in big screens before and you won't regret watching this movie. Thanks to Dante Lam who had chosen Malaysia as it's destination for filming of this movie and it was impressive. Once again, you should watch this movie. Enjoy! MY RATING: 5/5
