Rumor has it that Kung Fu Killer was renamed Kung Fu Jungle (as a joke - “kungfu hangout”). Due out December 18th.
Which is what I was talking about)
There are a lot of unrealities like “stopped a kick with a fist”, “fell from the roof, but caught the edge with two fingers, held on, threw myself back”, and plus flying on ropes. All the fighters there are in great shape, but such unrealism spoils everything for me.
Michael Moore (Kiai-Kick) gave Vajra a 9 out of 10 (on his scale it's Fantastic).
Of course there are cables, well, just a little, they didn’t spoil my impression, the battles were staged well and dynamically. Xing Yu is in great shape :)
In my opinion, it still rushes... and by the way, there is almost no MMA there. The review said that there will be a lot of MMA. There are more Chinese ancient styles and yet... unfortunately there are flights there. But maybe someone will like it). Although I like Ong Bak 2 better in this regard. These films are similar to each other.
I don't remember this being noticeable in the trailers. And they write that they were used to emphasize the force of blows, and not for flight. I haven’t watched it myself yet, I’ll check it out. Thank you.
- Thanks for the info!!!
...and the trailer is promising. I even stole a couple of ideas into my movie closet. I thought about how to do this effectively without a cable.
Vajra has been online for a long time without translation, with English subs. I watched it, but to be honest, I didn’t like it... there are a lot of cables, everything is somehow darkened, plus there is too much mysticism. In short, not for everyone.
Have you heard anything when The Wrath of Vajra will be released? The trailer looks very interesting!
Exactly! I always talk about this. I just don’t understand where producers and directors are looking. I would like to see strong and strong-willed heroes. But in a normal situation, without running around the jungle with a machine gun and knives.
Xing Yu in Vajra was also good in the lead role, if the reviews are to be believed. It's a pity that both of them are not allowed to really develop. Some musicians and models, if we take Chinese modern cinema with elements of biography. And normal on-screen fighters with backups in the shadows...
Fan Hsiu-Won - Good screen fighter!!! I'm sure that together with Donny we will see something tough and powerful! God forbid!
