Kung Fu Games

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!
