Casting and story is good. And the main characters can actually do martial arts, so nothing looks bad. But they look uncoordinated and there's a lot of digital help. It's more action than anything else, but it's like Ninja Kali/Eskrima and it looks off. And the protagonist has ninja pyschic powers. It's just a really weird mix of Fantasy Japanese with WWII Filipino guerilla. Not bad at all. And techniques were real. It was way better than the Jason Bourn stuff. Just weird for me seeing Japanese fighting like Filipinos. And mixing psychic powers with practical killing techniques. Better than Hollywood anyday, though.
Chinese people faking a Chinese accent is hilarious! On top, this is the first Hollywood film ever to have macho Asians with bass in their voice. These guys are manlier than all the non-Asian men in Hollywood film. As usual with Hollywood, leading roles are miscast. Mulan doesn't look boyish. Honghui looks like Korea's 'Rain' before a Captain America mutation. If you are a martial arts lover, the goofy digi-fight scenes are fun. This 2020 Mulan is good a good comedy. I recommend if you like Rifftrax and MST3K.
Frankly, Spriggan will be offensive to those who literally perceive Western holy books and/or who are pro-America. It is best if they avoid this film. It is no wonder that the movie seems to be censored in America. Spriggan is not produced in the United States and vendors from Amazon UK will not even ship to the U.S. Real collectors will want a copy just because of its rarity.
Pacing is great and action is superb. The good-guys are the standard boring but the villains are fun. The animation has a personal style and is fluid.
Anyone who thinks Spriggan is a poor film is a person with very specific expectations.
