Big Brother

Are you serious? Although this movie is a very positive movie, it still have A LOT OF problems.

Plot is all over the place, characters are boring and unlikeable, dialogue is clunky and cliche, acting is subpar. It's just not a good movie, the whole thing was very heavy-handed. I've seen and liked bad Donnie Yen movies before (Iceman for example) that still had good fight scenes and were endearing in their own silly ways. This is not one of them. If you're watching it because you're a hardcore Donnie fan like me you can suffer through it just to say you've seen every movie he's been in. But if you're watching this because you're looking for a good movie you won't find it here. The people giving it 10/10 are either paid bots or were part of the cast and crew lmao. There's no way anyone watched this and thought it was a masterpiece, it's not even a top 50 Donnie movie.

I went into the theatres expecting a full fledge martial arts movie, but I got more than that. The movie totally blew my expectations away, as Big Brother touches on gender equality, racism and more importantly the flaws in today's education system. The role a teacher plays in his/her students' lives, to inspire and motivate.

Reminds me of the hit Bollywood film, 3 idiots, but with more action scenes.

Have not seen a movie that brings out so many positive messages for a Long time.

Also was not expecting to go into the cinema to see so many people wiping their tears during the movie - a very touching movie with comedic elements and incredible action sequences. A movie with a lot of heart and effort, and deserves to be applauded.

Definitely recommended to be watched in theatres! :)

Overall the movie is predictable and pretty ordinary. But it was also refreshing to see Donnie Yen in this role. I am certain as he ages he can't go around beating up the world.

I liked the family elements in this film, which are universal. I think they did a decent job of exploring various difficulties that many families struggle with.

I found this change of pace to be refreshing versus a never ending conveyor belt of Asian martial arts films.

A favorite of mine is "Eat Drink Man Woman"

Anyway, if all you want is martial arts, you won't find much of it here, some, but not much. If you want to see how we all are the same no matter what language we speak and we face the same challenges, you might enjoy this film.

Just like Michelle Pfeiffer's Dangerous Minds, this is a story about a person who wants to bring change in a school. The only difference is Donnie Yen can fight. The movie also address the typical asian school system and how asian students deal with it. Although the general plot is very predictable, the issues are real.
