Shang-Chi y la leyenda de los diez anillos

Everything comes in it beautiful science fiction and beautiful mythical creatures. Sometimes you have creatures that don't seem real, but these just seemed real. Well done! There was a bit of avatar feeling in it. Fighting for the safekeeping of peace. Really beautiful. And self-acceptance was also nicely incorporated.

The story and making is worth to watch in big screen with good sound system. The first half is filled with great actions and funny moments and it get into serious mode in the second half.

The second half is more traditional and sentimental....the decent story and colourful visual makes this so grand... Good movie to watch with family.

I'll be honest - Marvel movies are not in my top 20 or even 50 but within the Marvel "Universe" I would say that Shang-Chi is in my top 5. I know, it's blasphemy and all that but think about it - is it better than Iron Man? I would admit yes - it's origin story is arguably better, and it's characters are a lot deeper. The Mandarin is a conflicted man, with evil but good as well, like real life. Is this movie better than The Avengers or Ragnarok or Infinity Wars? Hard to say, which means it's right up there with the best (of Marvel) in my opinion.

Plus, I'm a sucker for Chinese movies with the Chinese language being spoken - 1 of my favourite of all times, if not my absolute favourite, is of course 'Hero.' The Chinese language and the artistry of it's culture are magnificent.

All in all, well done Marvel, director Destin, and all those who worked to make this movie a reality. This is not just your average summer action movie; it's close to being a Masterpiece. And the humour is pretty swell too!

Cheers.

Watched the IMAX version! Best solo since Iron Man (2008)! I had no expectations of this before. But the movie is much more lively. Enjoyed every moment. And also very engaging from start to finish. A kinda Cute-Action movie with some fun stuff!

This is the first movie that focuses more on martial arts than Marvel's superpower thing. Love to see a mix of Marvel's MASTER-LEVEL-CGI with Martial art. Kung-Fu with this kind of visual effect! Marvel nailed it again.

I've always loved Marvel's casting. Katy is too perfect for her role. Loved her chemistry with Shaun. Also laughed out loud at her childish stuffs.

Just one thing, not a big deal, the action scene of 'Dragon Riding' doesn't fit into the usual Marvel movie. But as Chinese flavor, it is OK. Except for this, the cinematography and VFX are a lot mesmerizing!

Shang-Chi is a hotel parking valet who reveals he's a martial-arts expert when he is attacked by thugs aboard a bus. He and buddy Katy head to the mysterious East to find his sister Xialing (Meng'er Zhang) in order to deal with their father Wenwu (Tony Leung Chiu-wai). Their journey leads to a village guarded by a bamboo forest, where Disney decided that what a martial-arts movie needed most was animatronic flying lions and dragons.

Up until then this was a respectful updating of a non-PC Marvel comic book from the 1970s that was originally supposed to be based on TV's Kung Fu. Rights unavailable, it was instead based on Sax Rohmer's Fu Manchu, who's even more non-PC today. For those in the know Wenwu is actually The Mandarin, although all this background is rendered invisible by the Marvel factory gloss.

What's left are some excellent action sequences that evoke Jackie Chan's Golden Harvest era (the film is dedicated to Brad Allan, 2nd Unit director, supervising stunt coordinator, and a member of Jackie Chan's Stunt Team), nice comic interplay between Liu and Awkwafina, a few Marvel cameos, a wondrous turn by Michelle Yeoh in the third act, and Tony Leung Chiu-wai, following the path of award-winning supervillains like Jeff Bridges and Sir Ben Kingsley. Leung is the best Hong Kong actor of his generation, and he brings nuance and gravity to a film that doesn't ultimately deserve it.
