Review of Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings (2021) by Davidgmt — 04 Sep 2021
Let's say it. Great fight sequences won't make this movie less boring. It really has it's moments but it also sunks into the WTF territory and slow pace of scenes bridging movie acts, makes it hard to watch.
Trevor from Iron Man 3 returns as an unfanny companion to the main characters. Marvel took some lessons from Monsterverse movies and this time as a subplot we have two mystical mythological creatures representing chaos and order (or good and evil) entagled in fight against each other.
No Shou-Lao or Fing Fang Foom references anywhere. Also... Mandarin is a chicken stew. The most developed character is Shang Chi's father. The worst and out of everything is the Razor Fist, turned into some bulky mindless drone.
The story is more straight than Zuckerberg's confused reptilian face, reassembling the plot of LOTR movies... go from point A to B. Overall... not a good flick FOR ME. Also Kevin Feige started damage control weeks ago before the movie premiered, now I know why.
