Viewing Notes
I expected this to be exactly what it was, which is a lot. As in there’s a whole lotta stuff going on! The first 15-20 minutes are probably the roughest in that it packs in a lot of back story in such a haphazard way that it’s easy to get confused. Overall it felt way longer than the actual running time; parts of it just dragged on too long. I was also amused by them jamming stuff into the end credits. Not sure why that was needed. The action is pretty fun though I expected more large scale battles to happen.
Aside from two Chinese women, Tonia and I were the only people in our screening.
