Hidden Strike

80' style plot? Check. Schlocky dialog? Check. Bad CGI? Check. World's greatest martial artist showing he still has it? Check. Pro wrestler-slash-action star whipping up on the bad guys? Check. It was cheesy and campy and I liked it! Expecting a thought provoking thriller? Go see a Christopher Nolan film. Want a Friday night popcorn / check brain at door movie that's just fun to watch? Stop browsing what's new to stream and enjoy this guilty pleasure. Jackie Chan and John Cena have some surprisingly good and funny chemistry. Much better than I expected, but then I didn't have super high expectations. Glad I didn't, because this film delivered.

Finally a top funny action movie with some never seen stunts or combat scenes before.

I didn't expect such an entertaining evening.

I mean this is a good example how they can fight without killing always with full of bullets or never ending boum boum. The result was a really creative thriller without.so many brutal numbers as we can see in John Wick or other similar movies.

The special effects were well done and the dialogs weren't so serious but just amusingly.

A nice enriching production on Netflix in this category. The filming locations offered the right atmosphere and it was fast paced so that you can't look away and doing other things. It's captivating and surprises as I mentioned with original ideas. I hope there will be a sequel. 6/10.

Don't listen to everybody destroying this film, because its not that bad! Sure, the first 30 minutes may be slow and mid CGI, but once it gets going, it's great fun.

When John cena and Jackie Chan meet each other, I knew that they'd have great chemistry. The conversations they had would always make me laugh.

And the action was pretty good too! It's not your 'Rumble in the bronx' or your 'Police story' but Jackie is still holding up! The fight scenes in this film are your typical Jackie fights, and they are great. Even Cena gets in on the fights, with him being more of a brute sort of fighter.

So, is this movie terrible? No. Is it amazing and a 10/10? No. Is it good fun for 1 hour and 40? Yep. Is it worth watching? Yep.

Like Jackie Chan. I like John Cena. But they were not good in this. I would liken it to a James Bond movie with Rodger Moore. It was...bad. Just all levels of ridiculousness, and not in a good way. Also, wow, Jackie Chan has really messed with his face too much...

The humor was really forced...The plot didn't make sense and also felt very rushed? I'm sure they had fun making this but it's one of those things where I spent less time focusing on the movie than wondering who came up with the idea for this and how did they get the buy in to move ahead with actually making it? I guess watch it if you're bored or want something on in the background...

Fun, Not Good, But Fun. There is more wrong here than right, but it has a fun tone and a lot of action. Jackie Chan is Always fun to watch regardless of the vehicle. This is true even as he ages, and even as the project is not great. He is fun here. John Cena is larger than life. This is part of the charm and appeal of the pairing; however, it is also part of the problem. He is too animated for what should be a more serious tone to this action thriller. The special effects are good, although too much computer generation at times. The fights are decent. Always something interesting with Jackie Chan. There is a problem with the balance of violence here. There is a lot of violence but there is a real aversion to killing which doesn't really fit the otherwise violent tone. There is stuff here for young people, but many missed opportunities for sure.
