Kung Fu Traveler (2017) Reviews

• How did this ever get 6.7?

  Foolishly watched this without reading the user reviews as I was intrigued by the concept. It's one of those oves where you know you can never get those 100 minutes of your life back, ever.

• Don't get fooled by the IMDB rating.. I'm 110% sure that the Chinese click farms were deployed to boost its rating :)

  Script 1/10 - it's just a cheap rip-off the Terminator 2 movie CGI 3/10 - I've seen Bollywood SciFi movies with better explosion effects. Not to mention the "This is Sparta" wannabe scenes shot on a green screen are so bad that it's not even funny Sound & Music 2/10 - the overlay for the fight scenes must-of came from a free music library, same for the soundtrack Waste of my time 11/10

  I luv martial arts, scifi movies, anything w/action. but oh my god this movie makes no sense. huge gaps in the story line. ok, i can live with that but not to this extent. the fighting is ok which there are a couple of good fight scenes but theyre not worth watching this movie that has no script....or a script written by a a 2 yr old. the scifi and kungfu sounds like a different/cool idea but this movie didnt know what to do with those 2 concepts

• Trust the general IMDB rating, not the individual reviews.

  This film has been given such a poor and unfair review that I feel compelled to bring some fairness to it. It is definitely not a 1/10. People who rated this 1/10 either did not pay attention to the story, understood the language or simply disliked the CGI so much to be able to provide an unbiased review. The CGI isn't top notch, but it's not bad either. It's about the level of a decent B+ listed movie. The story is what drives this movie. It's about a robot learning how to be human, incorporating human emotions into kung fu and ultimately, the art of taking oneself out of the equation, all to save the human race and the ones he cared about. The story could have had more depth, but the action packed scenes make it an overall solid 6/10 for me. This movie is partially sci-fi with the majority of the movie being more of a martial arts/action film. It is also true that if you don't speak mandarin, you will not get as much enjoyment out of the subtitles as a native speaker. But in the end, it's worth a watch, and in my case, a re-watch.

• Good movie.

  This isn't going to win any Oscars but is a decent sci-fi, kung fu movie. It has a certain tendency to preach anti-foreign propoganda, but it's easily overlooked. If you want an enjoyable piece of escapism with some decent action, this is a movie for you.
