Review of Man of Tai Chi (2013) by James L — 10 Jul 2013

The concept, although not original, was very solid and rich. However, the script was poorly written and seems very theoretical. Tai Chi originally was an offensive out to kill style back when invented and later modified to create balance and even rejuvenate old bodies.

It was refreshing to show people how it was like, although not the main theme of this story. The directing was creative but lack foundation and seems amateurish. I will not even get into the acting part, but let's just say everyone in that movie acted with Keanu style.

I was a bit disappointed, but nevertheless it was entertaining to see some acrobatics and the usage of chi kung.
