No one will ever top Stephen Chow's performance as Monkey King in the previous Chinese Odysseys. He should let the series rest gracefully. Instead he filmed a movie and now a drama starring the blandest of actors. Ya, I hope Chinese Odyssey 3 Flops. What a shame, disgrace. Literally in it for the money only, but I think it will earn big bucks simply because of the IP. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's no Donnie Yen. The dude is also a huge drama queen which is a big turn off. Not a fan of Hangeng but he's not a bad actor so at least there's that. Well, I agree to a certain degree. =) Its hard to be Bruce, Jackie, Jet or Donnie. These 4 Cinematic Martial Artists are in a league of their own, hence they are international stars. But as you know, the 3 living ones command huge salary right now as their films' rights sell well overseas, always having numerous bidders at Cannes and for Jackie and Donnie especially, their schedules are so packed, one movie after another... So we start to see wanna-be(s), when movie companies and directors cannot get Jackie, Jet, Donnie.. they look for alternatives. Stephen Chow(Shaolin Soccer, Kung Fu Hustle) and Nicholas Tse(Dragon Tiger Gate) can pull Martial Arts movie off because they are at least well-trained and big fans of Bruce Lee, but I have seen others which are disgusting. Don't want to sound too harsh but I watched Eddie Peng in Rise of Legend, filled with stuntdoubles and all his movements looked so stiff and not fluid at all. Don't know how Han Geng will perform but I do hope Chinese Odyssey 3 flops because they are trying to ruin a classic here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thomas-peters Posted August 7, 2016 Share Posted August 7, 2016 (edited) i finished to watch time raiders: the CGI were really awful... outside that for a newcomer luhan acting wasn't bad ( i didn't watch his others films), JBR and most of cast were good, the actress was kinda useless even if i like her. i wasn't that surprised of the success but because of novels fans aren't that harsh to this film (not more that they are for most of novels adaptation film)... i will say much better than the serie with liyifeng and yang yang.

I saw a clip of Lu Han and he was bad and awkward. Jing Boran is a decent actor. It's a shame he chooses really bad movies. Did you read the reviews? The only ones giving it a positive review are fans of the actors. The movie is getting roasted all over Weibo and Douban. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KGator Posted August 8, 2016 Share Posted August 8, 2016 Does anyone have any predictions on upcoming movies Jason Bourne or Star Trek Beyond? How do their release dates look in terms of local competition? Are these popular genres in mainland China? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you're looking at the ratings for other movies of the recent release, most of them have the similar rating or even lower. so i guess "overwhelming majority" hated all those movies too. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
