Vengeance aux poings

It feels as if a few actors said to each other," I know a guy who does weddings part time, we can hire him to do a movie and I have a story that came to me in a lucid dream when I was drunk, and my 12 years old sister told me she can write a script for it as she studies drama in school, let's all put our savings and make this great movie... 1. Bad , bad fight scenes. They look so bad, it is stunning how they managed to make them bad as it would be hard 2. Cinematography/camerawork is absolutely horrible. One of the worst I've seen this year. Shaky camera, weird angles, bad cuts (too hide poor fight scenes), bad use of extas 3. Script is boring. Story makes no sense and the script is extremely poorly written.

To be honest I could not finish. Gave up midway as there was no sense continuing after a 45 minute torture of amateurish nonsense. Anyone giving this movie a higher than 4-5 rating would be lying. I have no idea how Netflix was involved in this "craftmanship"

Despite a solid and gleefully wacky premise and a talented cast, Fistful of Vengeance is a disappointingly weak film that's rushed, chaotic and full of clunky exposition, bad one liners and poor visual effects.

The fight scenes are mostly well filmed but that only highlights how weirdly weightless and low energy they are. The soundtrack is extremely distracting with its near constant and random selection of songs from beginning to end.

However, there are a few positives. It's satisfyingly gory and there are brief moments of impressive camera work. Lewis Tan gives the strongest performance with more than enough charm and charisma whilst also being physically capable.

Great to see the fight scenes in Bangkok. Storyline is weak. Kai and Zan fights are the best. Zan is an interesting character in Wu Assassins. This is an average movie and the series is much better.

I opted out of Wu assassins (despite wanting to support fellow asian actor from my home country) and stumbled into this movie. Didn't know it was related to that series.

I guess you can call it campy? It felt very b grade movie. Maybe they are looking for that old school Hong Kong movie vibe, but it's not working that much for me.

I also hope one of these days Lewis Tan can star in a movie that I can actually watch in repeat.

I really wanted to give this a rave review, I loved the Wu Assassin TV Show but this is a pale imitation.

I felt bad for scoring it so low

The story is poor, it's as if they rushed to out a movie together so that people would remember the Wu Assassin existed , they should not have bothered, the story is disjointed with no character development, characters appear with no real addition to the storyline, the bad guys wear black leather jackets with metal studs and the hood guys wear normal street clothes that's the level this is working at

Poor editing and production make for a film that had potential to come across as poor and Ill-conceived, I'm not if Katheryn Winnick could have rescued this?

The good points are the fight scenes with Uwais and Tan kicking but, they are well choreographed as you would expect from something with Iko Uwais starring

Watch it if you like long decent choreographed martial arts sequences, just turn your brain all the way down to not caring what you watch mode and you'll be ok.
