'''''Romeo Must Die''''' is a 2000 martial arts action film that featured the first US starring role of martial arts star [[Jet Li]] as well as the acting debut of US R&B singer [[Aaliyah]]. In the film, Li stars as Han, a former police officer who escapes from a Chinese prison in order to investigate the murder of his little brother in Oakland, California. He then discovers that a war is brewing between local Chinese and African-American gangs in the city. The film also marked the directorial debut of [[Andrzej Bartkowiak]], who previously served as the cinematographer on such films as ''[[Lethal Weapon 4]]'', ''[[Falling Down]]'' and ''[[Speed]]''.  Bartkowiak and Li would reunite along with many of the same actors (and firearms) for 2003's ''[[Cradle 2 the Grave]]''.

Romeo Must Die (2000)

Romeo Must Die is a 2000 martial arts action film that featured the first US starring role of martial arts star Jet Li as well as the acting debut of US R&B singer Aaliyah. In the film, Li stars as Han, a former police officer who escapes from a Chinese prison in order to investigate the murder of his little brother in Oakland, California. He then discovers that a war is brewing between local Chinese and African-American gangs in the city. The film also marked the directorial debut of Andrzej Bartkowiak, who previously served as the cinematographer on such films as Lethal Weapon 4, Falling Down and Speed. Bartkowiak and Li would reunite along with many of the same actors (and firearms) for 2003's Cradle 2 the Grave.


The following weapons were used in the film Romeo Must Die:

An Olympic Arms K23B similar to the one seen in Romeo Must Die. The one in the movie has the M4A1-style flat top receiver with a suitcase handle on top of the receiver, whereas this gun has an A2 receiver and the newer-style collapsible stock. This one also lacks the cut-down front sight of the movie gun.

Olympic Arms K3B Commando

When the Asian and black gangsters all have guns drawn on each other at the beginning in the club, Silk (DMX) breaks up the fight by firing a shorty M4-type weapon into the ceiling. He then says, "Guns don't kill people, people kill people". This weapon looks similar to the Colt Model 933 (AKA the "M4 Commando"), but it is actually an equivalent from the Olympic Arms K3B series. It is recognized as an Olympic Arms rifle by the white lettering on the lower receiver and the four-prong "Phantom"-style flash hider.

XM177E2

Silk's bouncers in the club are seen using Colt XM177E2 carbines; however, the weapons look fake and plastic, which suggests they might be airsoft guns (unlike Silk's M4, which is definitely a real blank-converted weapon).
