Amazing. Exactly what a good horror flick should look like. It starts out low and builds things up step-by-step. And none of the stupid CGI that says "look at me, I'm an amazing CGI effect". This was a perfect movie. Don't want to spoil it, just watch it.

One of those movies that I started 3 times because I thought it was mediocre, then when I let myself watch it in its entirety, I loved it. The actors, the two principals, do an excellent job with their parts. The way the movie winds up,,,,wow, it is really, really good. It is a comedy, but it is also drama, and very touching. You should give it a shot, it is a very good movie.

This is the opposite of entertainment. Seems like it was written by a college sophomore who just discovered "therapy" and "found themself". Two people who blame each other for their unhappiness, then proceed to see how cruel they can be in trying to tear each other down. Who decided to put this out there? From what I understand, some film major made this as his thesis film. The dialogue is tiresome, and watching two people fight for over an hour is just boring. Massive waste of time.

I just saw it. I am going back tomorrow to see it again (I have the Regal pass where I can see as many movies as I want). Donnie Yen was great, Nicholas Tse was great, the movie was great. Honestly, the movies I've seen from Asia are WAY better than the American ones. Drama, comedy, action, police-noir,...This one excels. And what was not expected was how good the dramatic elements played out, and how good Donnie and Nicholas were in the dramatic moments. Nicholas's moments in the court elevated the conflict to a higher level. Way better than any superhero movie.

Loved it. All i knew was that it was said to be wicked fun and not stupid, so I went in blind. Very good horror film

The movie was WAY better than I had expected. Marvel has been progressively upping their game, and this movie continues that trend. It was emotionally resonant, it was more about story than effects, with the result being that the effects consequently had more impact. As it was making a nod to many wuxia films, the martial arts scenes were excellent, and the choreography was not stale, which had been a worry. HOWEVER, this would have been better if they had NOT tried to insert comedic moments. They need to stop characterizing audiences as being so shallow that each movie "must have comedy". It's insulting to the intelligence of moviegoers. Marvel needs to simply dive into the dramatic end of the pool, and give us a story that is not watered down by "comic relief valve moments". ESPECIALLY as this was a nod to Asian cinema Hong Kong Triad movies and wuxia movies, the comedy is a distraction from the story and interruption of the rhythm. Nonetheless, it benefits from the presence of Tony Leung and Michelle Yeoh, whose screen presence and gravitas are actually the real anchors of the movie. Get rid of the "light-hearted" content, I say. Awkwafina, whom I admire and respect, seemed out-of-place due to her role as snark-provider. And thankfully, it isn't the same old story just about stopping "the bad guy that wants to end the world", "the bad guy that wants to take over the world," "the bad guy wants to bla bla bla". That element is present, but that isn't what the movie concentrates on ; it is centered on family dynamics, and gets more mileage because of it.
