Man of Tai Chi (2013)
Directed by Keanu
Reeves this film stars Tiger Chen, Karen Mok, Iko Uwais and it's
director. A delivery man that is a student of Tai Chi comes to the
attention of a man organising underground fights.
Plenty of times this
film skirts being something interesting only to fall short every time
and comes across as a script written by someone with only a passing
knowledge of it's subject matter. The plot is essentially the battle
for a man's soul but it never really goes deep enough and fits the
standard rules of screen writing too closely at times. I enjoyed the
martial arts sequences but some of them are too long and feel like
they are filling out for a lack of story.
3/5
