Shang Chi

I went to see Shang Chi And The Legend Of The Ten Rings at Cineworld, Loughborough. Very hot outside. The caucasity of the blonde haired girl student to put her feet up on the seat in front of her. She sat in I16. She did sit properly and a slight laugh from one of them. One of her college friends didn't turn up to an event as her dad suffered a brain hemorrhage. Anyway this is a Marvel film and centres on the Asian people. The rings were taken by The Mandarin or I will call him that. Gave him power and immortality. He would meet a woman in Ta Lo. A fascinating place. I need to look into the back story. The fight scene choreography was beautiful. Most of the fight scenes were superb. Nice special effects and a great cast of actors. Tony Leung, Michelle Yeoh, Ben Kingsley are legends in their own right. Shaun is living in San Francisco. Where Scott Lang lives. He works as a Car Valet with his best friend Katy. There is humour in this too. A group of henchmen are after this pendant. Shaun needs to reflect on his life, find out who he really is. There is the issue of family and you get to see things from the point of view of most of the main characters. I had never read the comics. Was unsure as to if I would watch this. The soundtrack is good especially the main theme. I used ro enjoy watching martial arts films. I definitely recommend this film. Simu Liu, Awkwafina.

We are family

I am watching The Farewell. A comedy drama with an Chinese cast. Awkwafina stars. There is a mixture of languages spoken. The subtitles blend into the background so I am missing some of the dialogue. The grandmother is suffering from cancer. The other family members know, but she doesn't and they want to keep it that way. The family go to China. There is a wedding taking place. You might like the soundtrack. Billi has interesting mannerisms. I don't understand the patient would be told by the family. Cert PG. Released in 2019. There are many other films that I suggest. A great ensemble cast. Good acting. The scart plug was giving me issues.
