Wu Assassins

It's got Katheryn Winnick finally given a chance to show off her karate chops, it's got Iko Uwais doing his wooden acting with fantastic martial arts and... It's got fireballs! If you like Oriental themed stories with great martial arts, the B-gradeness of everything can be forgiven, it's entertaining enough.

Fun enough - a little uneven in the acting and the script. Some of the actors are really good and some clearly are less so which makes it noticeable. Sometimes the script is OK and sometimes it just doesnt work. Action sequences are really good. And appreciate the representation of the Chinese in San Francisco Experience - and all the Cantonese speakers. All and all, it shows some promise and worth to look at another season.

The acting isn't great, the special effects are probably from about 10 years ago standard and it's cheesy as hell but I'm really enjoying it. The fight scenes are fantastic. You'll know after 1 episode if you want to watch more.

The effects suck big time. The acting could be better. I had more expectations from the lead actor as he is ranked quite high for his roles in the Raid movie series. Somehow the hip hop tracks don't just fit in with the mood or scene. Honestly don't know how it has such a high rating.

Wu-Assassins was a lot better than I expected it to be and much better than the 6.4 rating it has. It's about a San Francisco chef (Iko Uwais) who becomes the latest in a line of assassins chosen to keep the mystical Wu powers out of the hands of evil people. It has plenty of martial arts and action with great fight scenes. It's not a perfect show but it is entertaining. People seem to be all over the place on it, a lot of people either love it or hate it. I'm one of the people who liked it and was hoping for another season! Even though a second season never came it was popular enough that they did make movie to finish up the story. Iko Uwais is one of the best martial artists in the world and so fun to watch!
