Thanks to
@Lionsgate for today's press screening of The Furious [2026] and
@BrndnStrssng
Kenji Tanigaki put together one heck of an experience and seeing Kensuke Sonomura's choreography being used with Martial Arts out of his comfort zone is insanely marvelous. This is the defining film of this decade on Martial Arts Cinema and it set the template on what Kensuke Sonomura and his crew at
@udenfw been building up for a very long time.
My mind couldn't comprehend Xie Miao doing Sonomura's choreography. The ferocious impacts and flow into stances followed by
@udenfw trademark of grapple body movements it is something that is hard to explain with text and it has to be seen.
The film overall feels like that peak era of Hong Kong Cinema from the 80s and early 90s. From Sammo and Jackie Chan's output to the Girls With Guns genre. The English dubbing, dialog and humor in this film reminded me why I fell in love this genre in the first place.
Everyone in this film shines but Brian Le and Joey Iwanaga are the desserts after the main course and then some.
I cannot wait what Xie Miao and Yang Enyou are going to do in Eye for an Eye 3. I have more to later on once everyone sees it. Watch the
