That is the problem with the whole movie.

The movie is titled Shang Chin but the main plot is not really about him.

As a superhero origin story, it is quite bad as the plot did not focus on him. It is as if Marvel think Simu Liu can't carry the movie.

Everything about his powers and abilities were not properly explained especially the 10 rings. You watch Superman, Spiderman, Captain America, Iron Man etc. first movie, they tell a lot about their powers and abilities but in Shang Chi we only see him as just good kungfu. Suddenly at the end, he can control the rings better than his father who has used the rings for thousands of years.

The had to have an end-credit scene to sort of say something about the origins of the rings which will probably be explored in the sequels

you are right probably

testing water because even ccp pipu dislike it, thinks simu liu not handsome enough

either way tony leung carries the movie so bad, hope he got insurance for his back

if not for him, this movie is a generic kungfu movie (wong and bruce has to show up to remind its a marvel movie lol)

and the plot transition way too fast, one min this average guy was doing valet parking and nek minnit kungfu all the way on par with cap america 1v10 honchos

but white ppl from leddit likes it because representation and subpar kungfu movie

i give it a 6/10, enjoyable but not rewatchable
