Viewing Notes

FF2010 Day Seven: Film #1 - First screening today was Andrew Lau’s Legend of the Fist: The Return of Chen Zhen (2010) featuring Donnie Yen. I’m fairly certain that Donnie Yen is featured in more movies at this year’s Fantastic Fest more than any other actor. Anthony Wong and Shu Qi play major roles and both are pretty good altho I didn’t buy Qi’s character arc. This is another solid period piece that’s heavier on the drama than action but a nice film to ease into the day.
