The protagonist with zero sense of presence.

Bearing the name of Quentin and bringing all kinds of big-name stars at home and abroad, this film will naturally attract the attention of many fans. After reading it, a four-word comment: Courage is commendable.

The film as a whole is not shoddy. The various scenes of Chinese martial arts films and the style of early Chinese martial arts films add a lot to this film. Of course, the scenes created by foreigners are indeed very nondescript, no less than various domestic bad films, and the martial arts effect is also very good. It is qualified, and the weapon settings are also passed. The only thing that didn't pass the test very well, maybe the non-mainstream hairstyles of the villains. The fragrant scenes that often appear in the film also have a sense of sight of Hong Kong's third-level film.

Indeed, it is meaningless to be too serious. It is not a big deal for the characters inside to be in English and Chinese for a while. It is just like the world is in harmony, just like the setting in "Firefly", where foreigners and Chinese live in harmony. The idea in the film is also considered half original. The setting of a hedgehog outfit and two-handed iron fist is simple and rough, but how does the iron fan look like the weapon in "Mortal Kombat". As for the iron claws that don't ask people, or the Tai Chi twin swords, there is a feeling of "Chinese weapons in the eyes of foreigners". In other words, the twins really used the word "Gemini". . . You must know that this kind of twin combination in general martial arts is actually a husband and wife combination, and it is better to use "couple". The appearance of spicy pork ribs is also very interesting, I guess it is one of the director's favorite foods?

In terms of the actors of this film, the director originally wanted to direct and act himself, but unfortunately, his acting skills are too insignificant, and he is surrounded by a bunch of old actors, his acting skills are even worse, in other words, a This film starred, coupled with the famous machete man Danny Trejo, and finally joined the twilight girl. If this trio of facial paralysis went to make a romance film, it would definitely become one of the most interesting events in film history, hehe. As for the other actors, the eunuch in this film is finally not the best in martial arts, but it's a pity that the face that seems to be very strong. In addition, when I saw the introduction of other characters at the end of the film, I felt that some characters were unimpressive, and non-mainstream modeling killed people.

Another major feature of this film is that the fighting scenes are accompanied by English rap, which is a very good attempt, and I will not try it again in the future.

The best martial arts in this film is actually the foreigner muscular man. He is like an X-Men who made an iron shirt with a golden bell cover. However, in the end, he did not use the classic tricks to deal with iron shirts to defeat the muscular man, which made me a little bit. Disappointed, it seems that this old black director has not seen mainland martial arts films, otherwise he will definitely like the method of breaking the iron shirt~

This time, the Chinese martial arts filmed by the black rapper director, the Chinese director should also make a western film Movies or black gang movies to respond. The cost of this film is 15 million US dollars, and the global box office is 18 million. I don't know whether this old man with facial paralysis should cry or laugh.
