I Am What I Am 2

About This Movie

I Am What I Am 2 dives into a gritty yet colorful animation that captures the essence of Shanghai's underground fight scene. Gyun, our reluctant hero, is a character who feels almost like a blank canvas, thrown into the chaos of competition and personal struggle. The pacing is quite engaging, with fight sequences that feel dynamic yet sometimes drawn out enough to develop a sense of tension. It’s more than just a martial arts flick; it grapples with self-identity and societal prejudice. The animation style is vivid, almost cartoonish, but it complements the emotional weight of Gyun’s journey. There's a certain rawness to the practical effects that adds depth to the fights, making each hit and fall feel impactful. The performances, especially from the voice cast, bring a layer of authenticity to this animated venture.

Distinctive animation style, blends realism with vibrant aesthetics. · Themes of identity and overcoming societal expectations resonate throughout. · Character development intertwines with action, not just about the fights.
