Blucher One of the worst movies I've ever seen

CommentsXp Best movie ever!

CrawlerChunky In truth, there is barely enough story here to make a film.

Markhgordon I thoroughly enjoyed this movie. It seems as if there are three stages to the star's development. The movie moves it along just fine.I'm not a person who analyzes a movie to death. I'm just a regular guy that likes Martial Arts films. This one has plenty of action from the get-go. If you're searching for a good martial arts action flick and are hesitating on this one, don't hesitate. You will not be disappointed. Order a pizza, make some popcorn and enjoy the high flying kicks, punches and acrobatic action that this movie brings. There were a couple reviews that rated this low. All I can say is that's a result of states allowing cannabis to its citizens, because this movie is all that and a bag of chips.Seriously, get it. You'll enjoy it.

DavCain10 I was so excited for this film to make its way to the states. Yuen Woo-ping is a master of the ideal fight movie and it's awesome to have him directing again after 15 years! His directing/fight coordinating in this film are absolutely epic! This movie has everything you want in a Wushu film. There's copious amounts of fighting with distinctly different styles including MMA, knife combat and awesome aerial stunts, and the ever popular drunken boxing, an evil master, family betrayal and of course the classic David Carradine in one of his final roles. While some may have issues with the "3 acts" or the CGI, I think that they all add to the master work of art that is True Legend.

Jeremy Faucomprez This movie is a work of art in many ways.The Martial Arts displayed are really one of the best I have seen in a long time, yes it relies on flying and jumping everywhere, yet the fight scenes feels visceral enough not to feel to much like a dance.The actors are really awesome, and they managed to make one of the BEST antagonist of all times.Now let's get to the part that almost ruins it : The Pacing.The flow of the movie suffers greatly from a bad editing, and it is too bad because it had the potential to be a true masterpiece.This movie should have started backwards, beginning at the end, and having Su telling his story.Instead of that, the pacing can be hard to follow, and at the end I was left with a strange feeling of incompletion.Otherwise, the movie is still one of the best martial art movies of the past years, and if you are a Martial Arts fan do not miss it !

grandmastersik Seriously, why not just make a sequel?So there I was, thinking that I'm watching the best kung fu film in recent years (Ip Man aside), when, instead of the film ending, a new story arc is tacked on, reducing our hero to a bum and worst father of the century! Okay, I get it, he's Beggar Su and somebody felt the need to move on to the Drunken Fist style, but why ruin a perfectly good Shaw Brothers-type fare?Verdict: if you want action, this is where it's at... but you'll most likely also be wondering why a 4th act was rushed through when a sequel would have been both economically viable and justified.
