Wushu

About This Movie

So, Wushu is this interesting blend of action and drama that you don't see every day. Directed by Antony Szeto, it pulls you into the world of Wushu students who, while training, accidentally uncover this dark child kidnapping ring. There's a certain rawness to the performances, especially with the younger cast, and the fight choreography really stands out—it's practical and gritty, not overly stylized like some modern flicks. The pacing is a bit uneven at times, but it kind of works in building tension. Themes of loyalty and betrayal run deep, giving it weight beyond just the action. Overall, it’s a captivating, if flawed, look at martial arts in a darker narrative context.
