US Trailer for Jet Li's Unleashed - aka Danny the Dog - Online Now!

I'm just going to go ahead and say this: Unleashed will prove to be, by far, the best western produced film Jet Li has ever been involved in. That's not saying so much, really, but I'll go one better and say that based on the footage I've seen so far it looks to be a very, very good film. The first bit of footage to release was very underwhelming but the international trailer - which seems to have disappeared sometime recently - changed my mind in a hurry and now IGN Filmforce has gotten their hands on the Rogue Pictures trailer for the film and it's even better than that international one was.

Li stars as Danny, a man who has lived his life imprisoned by a thoroughly creepy Bob Hoskins and forced into the ultra violent life of an illegal pit fighter. He escapes his captor and is taken in by a blind man - Morgan Freeman - and some seemingly random teenage white girl. Random teenage white girl still figures to be quite annoying but this thing scores large on all other fronts. Check out the trailer here.
