Interesting mix of family drama, crime thriller and kung fu as Jet Li plays a mainland Chinese cop going undercover to infiltrate a robbery gang in Hong Kong.
His young son has been told his dad is a wanted criminal, but the son continues to have faith in him. While the plot is fairly engaging, it sometimes slows down the action, which is not as extensive here as it is in so many of Jet Li's Hong Kong films.
Since that's the case, Rise to Honor can be looked at in two ways: as an interactive cinematic experience and as another action game. As an interactive cinematic experience, Rise to Honor succeeds on most levels. Not only does it star martial arts action star Jet Li, but the cut scenes of which there are many are very well done and some of the action sequences in particular seem like they're straight out of a blockbuster Hollywood action flick.
The graphics and audio, though not extraordinary, help compliment the movie feel. It truly feels and looks like a modern day action movie.
However, just watching Rise to Honor and basing an opinion solely off that would be faulty since the gameplay doesn't hold up nearly as well. Rise to Honor is primarily a beat-em-up with several other gameplay elements like shooting and stealth thrown into the mix for some added variety.
Instead of basing all combos on the four face buttons of the PS2 controller, they're instead all based off the dual analog sticks, much like the Ape Escape games. For the most part, it works well and allows you to attack enemies on the fly from all directions. However, the traditional beat-em-up issue of repetition plagues Rise to Honor and it isn't alleviated by the other underdeveloped gameplay elements.
Likewise, the shooting elements feel clumsy with the dual analog control setup and it pales in comparison to the Max Payne titles, where it obviously gains a lot of its influence. In addition Rise to Honor is also short ' easily beatable in a rental period with few incentives to play through again.
I can't help but think that Rise to Honor will hit it big with the star power of Jet Li and its incredibly high production values. As an interactive cinematic experience, it ain't bad, but if it had to rely entirely on its own gameplay, then it'd be something else entirely.
