Neil Shaw is both agent and weapon - a critical line of defense for the Secretary General of the United Nations. He does not even officially exist. As an international security expert, he must uncover an international plot in which ruthless terrorists threatened to bring down the United Nations on the eve of an historic summit with China. A mysterious chain of events leads to the murder of the Chinese U.N. Ambassador, and the terrorists frame Neil Shaw, the one man they believe can stop them. Accused of the crime, Shaw goes underground — in effect, vanishing from his own life — as he tries to stop what could become World War III.

Top Critics Reviews

rotten:
In this pretentiously titled international thriller, which is sloppily directed, Wesley Snipes plays an American agent who gets involved in the emerging relations between China and the Western world, with a shaky U.N. placed right in the middle.

rotten:
The movie is competently made, but it deals with characters and situations so well-worn, there is no conceivable way to breathe any fresh life into them.

rotten:
Ludicrous, impenetrable and headache-inducing: the newest Wesley Snipes film, The Art of War, is all that and more.

rotten:
The Art of War makes no sense at all.

rotten:
Two hours' worth of painful stupidity, overt racism, and mind-battering noise and movement.
