Golpes de Vingança

Would have LOVED to see a martial flick with Ico Uwais. He has some awesome moves, and while we wait for Season 3 of "Warrior (2019)" or re-runs of Into the Badlands, there really isn't that much Martial Arts for us to enjoy.

This could have been it, but because super heroes are so cool, we have to sit through a lot of cheesy supernatural stuff that really only takes things _away_ from the show instead of adding to it.

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"

There was a bit of this mediocrity and corniness throughout the Wu Assassins series, but overall the series was much more watchable and cooler than this wrap-up movie! :-(

It's a campy b grade sequel to the cancelled WU Assassins series, that didn't make it out of season 1.

What's worse is that any fans of the cancelled series won't even know it's a sequel. Because the previews & title don't tell you that. Not even the IMDB description mentions the series.

It's really not worth your time. It does a poor job of explaining itself, and connecting itself to the original series. They kill off the big bad, and you're left not even knowing how they did it.

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.
