Missed opportunity waste of time
I love martial arts movie, and I had high expectations with this movie but sadly disappointed me.
Movie stars Max Zhang from Master Z, SPL 2 and Ip Man 3. Going toe to toe with Anderson Silva who is a real MMA. It supposed to give the same feeling of Ip Man vs Mike Tyson. Sadly this movie could not take itself too seriously.
I was so disappointed with this movie.
1) the music used were one of the biggest problems. Who ever was the music director should be fired, or movie director was totally insane to approve those tracks in majority of scenes! The Movie just uses wrong music for the wrong time. A woman being assaulted and they play a quirky music.
2) too many unnecessary jokes that are just not funny! And jokes used at wrong time
3) main character played by Max has a health condition which the movie or story does not highlight, he just visits a psychiatrist as you don't know why.
4) I couldn't even watch all the movie or take the movie seriously because of the bad vibe and tone of the movie
5) I don't mind the poor CG effects, or the poorly obvious dragon CG, because I know I am watching an action realistic movie instead of fantasy. But you cannot even tell if that story Max said about the dragon was true or a joke. But I hated the scene they used with Max and Anderson at the wedding party, which was poorly shot! And the train wreck scene was just unneeded and stupid
6) wtf happened to Anderson Silva's voice? I know Anderson has a soft low tone voice. But every time he spoke in the movie, it just felt wrong. Almost as if he was not speaking but moving his lips, and then later doing the voice over for the movie, which is unnecessary!
7) some acting were so poor and exaggerated. Like the opening of the movie. That drug lord was the same actor in Invisible Target, and he also plays a bad guy. But his acting in the movie Invisible Target was quite good.
8) location of Macau was actually very good, I like the shots of Macau, especially the motorbike scene. Usually Macau shots in movies are always in casino.
9) martial arts fight scenes were okish, the movie was so dull I couldn't watch it till the end
10) a disappointing dull mess of a movie
Don't waste your time! Max Zhang wasted potential, a wasted opportunity for Anderson Silva.
