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.

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.

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"

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.

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.
