Review of Shaolin (2011) by Luciano G — 28 Mar 2011
This is film of massive set pieces. They are the sort of thing that makes you go wow.Unfortunately the film is dramatically simple, perhaps a little too simple. The trouble is that the film didn't seem to have all that much depth beyond those minimally required for the story.
..Chan perfectly casted superstar Andy Lau in a role that allows him to go through the motions......All in all it's never bad, it's just not as great as the spectacular set pieces make you think it should be.
...Definitely worth a look, you'll just wish it was better.........
