I'm removing the chunk that says : "Strange directing techniques (e.g. shot in shot used on just one occasion in the film), and an almost dubbed look added to green explosions and "nano" bombs in jeans, make this film - described as an action film - almost a comedy."

I'm not sure what wikipedia's standards are exactly for the wikifilms project stuff, but just from a factual point of view, the insanity in this film is resonably standard for a hongkong martial arts film, the film looks dubbed because it was recorded MOS with the sound added in ADR (many hong kong films don't record sound on set in order to save time), and the writer of this film is the same writer who did everything from Die Hard to Street Fighter, and all his movies have a unique style of comedy to them.

This article is currently about the movie, Knock Off: This should be clarified in the title. It would be a good clarification for the term "knock off" to redirect to Counterfeit consumer goods. This would give much better flow for readers of Wikipedia. Rlsheehan (talk) 14:32, 3 October 2009 (UTC)  Done Rlsheehan (talk) 20:38, 6 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
