Sinopsis(1)
El carismático ladrón Toni Fait (DMX) sortea los peligros del paisaje urbano con apasionada precisión, ocupándose de los negocios de su leal equipo de profesionales con una dedicación a la que sólo supera el amor que siente por su hija, Vanessa. Después de llevar a cabo un complejo atraco en el que está involucrado un alijo de diamantes negros, Fait pronto se encuentra enfrentado a Su (Jet Li), un agente del gobierno taiwanés que ha buscado las extraordinarias piedras por medio mundo. Su, que es tan peligroso como implacable, no está buscando sólo los diamantes, también busca al despiadado Link (Mark Dacascos), su antiguo socio, que secuestra a la hija de Fait con la intención de canjearla por las joyas robadas. Adversarios por principios pero aliados por las circunstancias, el maestro ladrón y el enigmático agente unen sus fuerzas para hacerle la guerra a su enemigo común: Su para vengarse del hombre que una vez quiso matarle y Fait para rescatar a su hija, la única persona sin la que no puede vivir.

Incluso a un espectador al que le gustó Herida abierta o Romeo debe morir tiene que admitir que Nacer para morir es una película demasiado estúpida. Casi tan estúpida como Street Fighter de Van Damme. Y Jet Li no tiene oportunidad de lucirse más de lo rutinario.

To the accompaniment of hip-hop and rock, American "niggas" and Taiwanese clash under the guidance of a Polish director. So is this a multinational action movie or what? The intellectually engaged viewer will answer no, while the one who turns off their brain just before starting the movie won't care at all. Acclaimed cinematographer Andrzej Bartkowiak belongs to the category of "producer filmmakers." They don't care what they are filming - it can be anything - as long as they are filming "something." Jet Li, DMX, and stolen black diamonds. Yes, the story is exactly as the previous three clues suggest. I'm tempted to say that it's not about the story, that it's all about the action, but that's not the case with Cradle 2 the Grave. It's not that the action lacks creativity and pace, but there's not as much of it as an action film should have. Despite Jet Li taking the lead role, there is surprisingly little martial arts action in the film, and considering that the "niggas" are armed, the gunfights are also quite scarce. But whenever I remember any scene, I can recall it very precisely. Angry Dobermans, a wrestling arena, or a quad bike. It's not easy to forget, but the fact that I want to remember more is insistent. Jet Li's (non)acting is something I've become accustomed to. DMX is one of those rappers who can also somewhat act. He probably won't get an Oscar, but he doesn't have to worry about the Golden Raspberry either. The quirky, wisecracking character of Tommy played by Anthony Anderson is fantastic. So what if the chances of him actually acting are probably as likely as him losing at least 100 pounds? Even though Cradle 2 the Grave is "just" a disposable action film and it is not advisable to think about it, it barely reaches an average rating because even in this genre, it definitely isn’t among the best, which is a bit surprising considering the director's name.

I want to be supportive today, so I'm going to write something positive about this movie. So... well... er... Jet Li says three words and moves his facial muscles twice in the entire movie, and... er... he’s looking for some diamonds, and... yeah, there’s a nice helicopter explosion, and then... er... the script is crap, the whole film is crap, boring as fuck. That this is not being supportive? Yeah, you are right. But I did try.
