I highly recommend you watch Tony Leung in Father of Shang-chi and the Legend of his Ten Rings.
I really enjoyed the movie. It’s a firm step into Phase 4. The action was spot on, the martial arts set pieces looked great, and I was even moved in some scenes.
The third act was a little much but overall, they did a fine job making this Hollywood version of a Hong Kong action flick.
I also liked the strong women portrayed in this movie. Very badass.
There was also a significant amount of screen time where the characters spoke Chinese, with English subs. Heck, the movie even opens with a Chinese narration. That added to the authenticity of the movie, I felt. Instead of trying to make everything in English.
You can tell they spent a lot of time getting the martial arts right, and the look right, so that it does not have a Criminal Minds: Beyond Borders cringe.
Oh, Simu Liu did a good job as Shang-Chi too. But we all know we are going to see my man Tony do his thing. So let’s not be shy about it.
I hope to see some prequel movie or tv series on Disney+ about Wenwu in future. You can’t have too much Tony Leung.
