Most Asian Americans actually don't have a problem with interchangeable Korean/Chinese/Japanese actors. Hell, they even do that in Asia sometimes provided the actors Korean/Chinese/Japanese is good enough.

As I said before, could be much, much worse, could be played by a white guy like so many other movies.

I totally agree. He's too tall, his teeth are straight, his voice is naturally low without being forced, his legs aren't bowl-legged, and he doesn't build sex robots in his spare time.....no one will ever believe he's japanese. japang nomba huan!!
