Immortal Fist: The Legend of Wing Chun

This is one of those movies that is just so cringe worthy bad you really don't want to waste too much time having to explain the 100's of reasons why however since it is now not possible to give a review without fulfilling the six hundred characters it just makes the job so much harder when I saw the title I was excited as having lived in in Hong Kong and become obsessed with martial arts and artists I was hoping for something between a Bruce Lee /Jackie chan style movie and Wing Chun was a style I had practised. Within 5 minutes I Knew this was Nothing like any real martial art based film. The acting was high school style as was the filming and as for fight scenes it was an insult to the martial arts to have allowed the maker to give this title! Avoid at all costs!

It makes me wonder if this film is a school project. but for the purpose of providing an insight, these are my comments:

Story Plot - there is a very good story plot but poorly executed. Acting - literally need more lessons in acting but they tried their best so A for effort Effects - Tolerable but can be improved a lot. Martial Arts - Need more training and since they are newbie in acting... A for effort Costume/ Make up - the banshee is great but everything else is awful Sound/ music - tolerable

Given the right director, artists and budget, this can be a good movie.

There is a lot going on here - found this on Amazon Prime and this is probably one of the most original films I've seen in a long time. It touches on some feminist topics, love that there a lot of lead females, but it's a quirky sci-fi action martial arts movie done on a low budget, which is a seriously bold move. Low budget Indie films in the Sci-Fi genre almost NEVER work, but I have to hand it to this crew, they made what they had work. They were fun and inventive, and told a story about self sacrifice. Viewer advised - it's a bit of a weird film. I gave it a 7 because they pulled off Sci-fi on a low budget. If they had some more time to build out the world, fine tune the plot points I would have given it an even more generous rating. I'm probably being pretty generous giving it a 7, but I loved the originality. It's one of those strange movies that will probably get a lot of attention in 20 years.

If I asked my mates to make a film and filmed as we went, you would expect a film like this. Strange to see it on IMDB as it lowers the bar so low you might as well start adding school productions. There is nothing redeemable aside from the main girl is kinda hot in a cam girl type way. There was no Wing Chun just generic Kung Fu that was badly pulled off. The acting is person off the street quality. I've seen better costumes at haloween in my local pub. You get the impression, there is literally no reason to watch this. It's not differnt or edgy it's just unwatchable and a masterclass on how to do everything badly.

An indie martial arts film typically found on Amazon Prime. The acting is fairly sub par. The wardrobes are not very pleasing in terms of aesthetics. The film essentially ends up being a bunch of cosplayers having fun doing martial arts scenes in a local park. You can tell they had fun doing it which is why I give it two stars instead of one. Seems school project quality.
