Bostonian916 (449 KP) rated Man of Tai Chi (2013) in Movies
Jun 29, 2020
It is quite startling to see national treasure Keanu in an unfavorable role. Once the sheer shock of that wore off I was able to settle in and enjoy the movie for everything that it is.
Truth be told, I'm a sucker for old school styling when it comes to martial arts. This movie has that in spades. The action is very reminiscent of the ilk of years gone by. I truly enjoyed that about it.
The acting was alright. The story was ok, if not a bit telegraphed. If you're a fan of martial arts movies in general (or of Keanu, as he also directed) the I would endorse seeing this movie. If you're looking for a big budget action flick or a billion dollar blockbuster, this isn't it. But you will have a good old fashioned enjoyable flick on your hands.
