“But good luck getting to it. Prior to the final 25 minutes, you get to watch a mostly awful film. Little of the first 96 minutes of the film take place in the present, maybe 12 minutes of it does. The modern day bits within the first 61 minutes are passable with good moments but not that interesting. The scenes in the past are mostly crap with some decent bits of choreography. Donu0026#39;t even get me started on how terrible the deaged Jackie looks that they use for the scenes in the past.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eBizarrely , the final 25 minutes of the film are excellent. Jackie gets a great finale fight that is extremely rewatchable and rewarding to a fan like myself. This great fight easily is better than any action scene in The Myth and better than most of Jackieu0026#39;s fight scenes in his films from 2005 to the present day. Also, Jackieu0026#39;s Archaeological team members are actually entertaining in this part of the movie. Donu0026#39;t lLet this fool you. Jackie splendidly gets the bulk majority of the finale fight to himself with only minor help from the group of young people. This in stark contrast to Kung Fu Yoga and Vanguard, where his teammates constantly get in the way of Jackieu0026#39;s action and engage in their own uninspired melees.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eSo, yeah ,the four stars which I give this film, three of which are for the final 25 minutes. I would love to get the film on Bluray just for the stuff at the end and one canu0026#39;t deny the beautiful, well shot locations throughout the film.”
