The game Stranglehold had story and ambition that belonged in a movie. It could've used the talents of Tony Leung and Chow Yun Fat more.
John Woo Making a Stranglehold Movie

Should be pretty good, especially if he can get Chow Yun Fat on board. I look foreward to it with great interest.
Well, if the movie is a logical follow-up to the game, I don't see why not. I absolutely fell in love with the game.
I still liked Woo's hollywood movies. Hard Target, Broken Arrow, Face/Off, Windtalkers, even Mission Impossible 2 are all awesome for the action scenes alone. The old HK ones are much more classic though, my fav is Bullet to the Head.
I really didn't care for Stranglehold. I wanted Max Payne with more crazy slowmo moves, instead I got just crazy slowmo moves. Suffice to say I never finished it.
