My Rebellious Son

About This Movie

So, 'My Rebellious Son' is this interesting fusion of action and comedy set in early 20th century China. You’ve got Chang Siu Tai, who's the son of a chiropractor, and he’s really trying to follow in his father's footsteps while also getting into all sorts of mishaps. The pacing is a bit erratic, swinging between kung fu action sequences and some pretty hilarious moments that almost feel like a sitcom at times. The practical effects in the fight scenes have a certain charm, though they’re not always polished. The performances feel genuine, especially how they portray that father-son relationship. It’s a bit rough around the edges, but there's something authentic about it that sticks with you.

Quirky blend of action and comedy · Themes of family and rebellion · Authentic performances with a unique charm
