Just watched Shang-chi and The Legend of the Ten Rings. It was pretty awesome. The actor (Tony Leung) playing the villian is my favorite Chinese actor. And this was both his Hollywood and English speaking debut. And he absolutely fucking killed it. The movie is worth checking out for his performance alone. I usually don't watch these popcorn type movies, but needed to check out Tony and was pleasantly surprised by the movie as a whole.

I'm about halfway thru it. Bus scene was a trip. Great martial arts choreography

I just can't reiterate enough how much I love Tony Leung and how happy I am that a wider audience gets to experience his acting. He's referred to as the man who speaks with his eyes. He was a big part of my film journeys in my late teens and early twenties. And think he absolutely killed it in his Hollywood and English speaking debut. He brought both so much gravitas and bravado to the character. Just my opinion of course.

Loved the actors, movie was a bit of a let down, 3rd act kind of sucked. Plus am I the only one who thought, “so you’re telling me you’ve been in this village for a thousand years protecting the earth and never thought about contacting an a list hero to help? Like wouldn’t Thor be able to handle that thing?” It I am thankful for all the Asians on screen and the people digging that for sure.

I mean this one should been manageable by the Green Lantern even.
