Man of Tai Chi Movie Reviews
Chen Lin-Hu was very
good in this role, convincing technique and acting ability, I hope he
gets more roles in the future. As for Keanu, I was very disappointed at
how shallow and unconvincing he was. His lines were at times laughable. I
know he is not known for his academy award winning performances, but
these were on a new level of cheesiness. The fight scenes were all
great, great martial art choreography, except for the last one, did they
change choreographers? It was terrible! The over use of "wire-fu' was
so obvious in the last scene it ruined it for me. It seems like such a
wasted opportunity to bring martial art movies to newer audiences, as
the concept (although not new) was solid, but i doubt it will entice
them.
