Kung Fu Games

Some people just don't like to leave a 1/10 in ratings because there's always something worse (there is something worse than this movie somewhere out there sadly). These are the people that saves movies like this to show a solid 1 as a rarting.

Thanks to fake raters this got as high as 4.5. That's the only way this movie could have gotten a score over 2 from anyone.

My guess here would be that the 10/10's are either from the crew behind this lousy movie or that they just bought some scores (probably a mix of both).

There is (at the time of writing this) 3 full reviews of this movie. Two of them give it the 1/10 it deserves with perfect explanations to why and one give it a 10/10 with glowing review that in no way is what this movie give you.

Strangely the 10/10 reviewer have a name made up like from a bot, is a week old account and only ever made a review on this movie.

I think that says it all.

NOW THE ACTUAL REVIEW OF THE MOVIE: It's crap and isn't even worth the time of a review. If I could give it a minus 10 I would.

When I sat down to watch the 2024 action movie "Kung Fu Games", from director Ryan C Jaeger, here in 2025, I have to admit that I wasn't exactly harboring the biggest of expectations. Yeah, the movie just sort of permeated low budget all over. But with it being a movie that I had neither heard about nor watched, of course I opted to give the movie a fair chance and the benefit of the doubt.

The script and storyline was flaccid. I was not particularly entertained by what writers H. Daniel Gross and Ryan C Jaeger managed to concoct.

I was not familiar with the cast ensemble in the movie. But the acting performances were adequate enough for what it was. ANd I actually do enjoy watching new and unfamiliar talents on the screen.

I've seen my fair share of questionable ninja costumes over the years. Yeah, I watched a lot of ninja movies back in the 1980s. And this 2024 movie has golden ninjas in it. Golden.

The action and fighting sequences were fair, but nothing extraordinary.

It was a struggle to sit through the ordeal that is "Kung Fu Games", and I was ready to toss the towel in the ring several times throughout the course of the 98 minutes that the movie ran for. But I endured it to the end, hoping the movie would become better. It just never did.

My rating of director Ryan C Jaeger's 2024 movie "Kung Fu Games" lands on a three out of ten stars.

Honestly, I wasn't sure what to expect from this movie, but I was pleasantly surprised. The nods and homages to classic Kung Fu movies are a fun add to an older style action movie. The fights were solid, the cinematography was crisp and clean, and then narrative was fun and engaging.

I've read some complaints around the fact that there wasn't enough fight scenes, but to be real, it was kind of nice to get a breath in and some character development instead of one, long, breathless fight scene that I think can be a bit exhausting.

All-in-all, I thought it was a lot of fun, a great movie to pop on with friends and cheer through. A great popcorn flick that will fill the need for those of us that loved 90's/00's actions movies that didn't need to be super serious or relentless to be enjoyable.

I really do not understand the overly negative, borderline hateful reviews here - after seeing them I went into this movie with low expectations, expecting a potentially painful experience (I'm not even a Kung Fu fan!), and I mean it when I say I GENUINELY, had a really great time from start to finish! It was truly a fun time! It left me feeling like they had somehow seen a different movie than me.

Sure, the plot is not exactly unexplored territory, but isn't this film supposed to be an homage to its namesake/genre? It seems to me it did that well - fun fight scenes, a little heart and levity mixed in, a plot and setting that was an interesting and enjoyable vehicle for cool fighting and interesting characters. It did its job!

Don't let these reviews scares you. I never write reviews and the vitriol in these contrasted with what I watched really compelled me to take the time to do this one. You should ignore these and give the movie a go -- I laughed, I cheered and overall had a great time which is all I really ask of a movie!

This is SO bad that it physically hurts!

Why in the world would any grown up person participate in such junk!

The acting, the story, it's so painful to watch!

I lasted 3 minutes, then I just had to go and wash my face. It's like small children at the age of 5 playing something after just having watched some stupid kung-fu movie.

"Kung Fu Games" is a lackluster attempt at a martial arts film that fails to deliver on every front. With its uninspired performances, poor choreography, and a convoluted plot, it's a movie best avoided. Save your time and money for something that actually entertains.
