Set in many parallel universes (a multiverse, as they say), an evil killer named Yulaw (Jet Li) is going around murdering his doubles. As he rubs them off, he gains their speed, agility and power. He has only one left to become The One, but ...read the complete One movie review at DVD Clinic ("The Shootin Surgeon")

"Good evening, sir. May I take your order?" "Yes. I'll have a large pot of your Cheese Filmdue, a side of Action and Jet Li and a medium glass of humor to wash it all down with." "That's a whole lot of cheese, sir." "Yes it is, but the combination ...read the complete One movie review at Moda Magazine (Kage Alan)

This movie's not going to change anybody's life or revolutionalize sci-fi or kung-fu flicks, but it packs a whallop, lasts little more than 85 minutes and doesn't pretend to be about anything else but kicking a lot of ass! If you're looking for a really ...read the complete One movie review at JoBlo's Movie Emporium ("JoBlo")

The interesting aspect of The One is that many of Rabin's lengthy action sequences are not only listenable, but easily enjoyable as well. As heard in the first three cues of the album release, Rabin's romping rock blasts, while surely more ...read the complete One movie review at Filmtracks (Christian Clemmensen)

The pace and inventiveness -- the epilogue is surprisingly touching -- and the eye-popping moves of Jet Li make it easy to hang on and enjoy the ride. ...read the complete One movie review at Chicago Tribune (Loren King)
One, The (2001) scores a combined 3.00 out of 4 stars for DVDActive (David Beamish)DVDActive (David Beamish)
An average film, with fairly bland action sequences and too much CGI presented on DVD very well, just about sums up this disc. The extra features on the standard release were quite good and some of the features explaining how Li’s face was placed ...read the complete One movie review at DVDActive (David Beamish)

I think this movie should be called Groundhog Universe. It bears many similarities to the Bill Murray film Groundhog Day, with scenes being played out more than once, with minor differences, by the same actors, with only the central character aware that ...read the complete One movie review at Film Quips Online (John R. McEwen)
One, The (2001) scores a combined 2.95 out of 4 stars for The Phantom TollboothThe Phantom Tollbooth
The One is essentially a martial arts-science fiction film that combines elements of John Woo with The Matrix. The idea of the movie is that there are innumerable parallel universes running next to each other, connected by wormholes. Jet Li plays dual ...read the complete One movie review at The Phantom Tollbooth

So, this is Superbit. I've been very interested in this new format (or more accurately, transfer method) since its inception and I'm glad that I've got a chance to revisit a title that I first reviewed in May, 2002. This is also an interesting title to ...read the complete One movie review at Michael D's Region 4 DVD Info Page

Jet Li has joined the dubious ranks of those martial arts stars playing opposite themselves in a film -- including Jackie Chan and Jean Claude Van Damme. But instead of playing a long-lost twin brother to himself as in the other films, Li’s ...read the complete One movie review at filmcritic.com (Annette Cardwell)

n The One, we are told there are 125 universes parallel to our own (another take on the tried and true sci-fi The Parallel Universe movie), and in each universe there is a copy of us who shares our energy, or life force.
