The film reviews made up were not impressed enough for what I saw at the time, and that's roughly what I can think of.

It may be the reason for the early movies, or the reason for his youth, but it is clear that Tonija’s performance is obviously not as comfortable and smooth as in Killing Wolf 2. Perhaps the long-term performance has improved his acting skills. Quite a lot, or maybe it was caused by the first look at Killing Wolf 2. In short, the first feeling is that Tony Jia's martial arts scenes in Tom Yum Goong have a very obvious sense of unsmoothness.
The plot is remarkable, mainly with animals as the main line. If the director is interested, from a sensational point of view (especially the sensational kind of Korean movies), you can get a lot of good audience fame, such as loyalty dogs, guides The plot of the blind dog Little Q, and the nostalgic animal like the elephant can make the director make a fuss and earn a lot of tears from the audience. However, it is obvious that the director did not do this. Instead, Tony Jia’s kung fu became the main line. Such a highlight changed from the emotional stage to the action scene, except for the lesser kind of grief that Tony Jia showed in the end. It seems that there are no other emotional lines, and there are fewer sensational scenes. I don't know if it is good or bad.
The domineering queen style of Venus in the play is still quite energetic, and it is very good, and it feels in place. At first glance, it looks like the kind of person who can do whatever it takes for the upper ranks. The acting skills are for this kind of long-term showbiz character It shouldn't be difficult to say. It seems to be acting every day, but now it's just a specific role.

Although the arrangement of fighting scenes is basically separated from the plot, the fights with different themes in several scenes are still very exciting. Tucao: God edited, many scenes have basically been cut to the point of incomprehension; the plot of the villain in the back is basically difficult to understand, and the description of the story is very poor in the later stage. The super long shot is great, but it feels a little too dazzling, so much of the action in that shot I can feel the actor trying to recall the action from his mind instead of making it to the extreme

This film doesn't need to be thoughtful, just watch Tony Jia fight and it's over. It has the style of Hong Kong's early martial arts films, punching to the flesh, very hard.
