Kung Fu Yoga (2017)

It's a commercial success because everyone was expecting great things from a JACKIE CHAN's movie just like I did. However it literally made me SICK. Super awful!!!!!!!! Too many ridiculous scenes and bad directing. I am too too disappointed in this. It is such a waste of your reputation and talent! Please don't ruin my head again. This will definitely make me rethink again before any of Jackie Chan movie coming out. I was 100% sure I would have a good time watching this before it blew up my head and drove my stress to the max!!!!! With all due respect to Mr. Tong the writer and director, please think again before you come up with some similar half done work and I do hope you could take a script writing class to reduce the non-sense in any of your dreamed projects. And Mr. Chan, kindly do not ruin your reputation with anything like this ever again...I was all fan until now ...Awful!

Fmovies: Well, not all Bollywood. Not enough dance routine to make that claim ( Unless like me you count Jackie's Kung Fu fighting as dancing)

I herd some Bollywood director was suppose to film it but backed out leaving Chinese cinema veteran Stanley Tong to fill the void. It's a great action adventure film (with a bad title) in what looks like it could be the sequel to Armour of the Gods or Operation Condor (which in America would be considered Armour of the Gods 2).

Jackie Chan plays Jack Chan (Really?) an archaeologist looking for a treasure that connects Chinese and Indian culture, and when he finds it this ultimate Bollywood Archetype comes after him for it.

It's not Jackie at his prime but he's at his best mixing humor with action. You'll See him do little stunts like jump through a luggage carrier with style (most of us half his age can't do that) and you'll see him do some really good old school kung fu moves like he did in Fearless Hyena.

But he's too old to be breaking bones for our enjoyment. Instead, he provides us with typical action movie fluff. Not to say that's bad. There is a car chase in the movie that is pretty fantastic.

This was an excellent return to the Jackie from yesteryear.

Kung Fu Yoga was named after the co-production of Indo-Chinese partnership. Of course there is a lot of Kung Fu, but wait a minute where is Yoga? You can't see a bit of Yoga in it.

The movie was good as far as Jackie and the action scenes are concerned. Jackie Chan was excellent in his stunts and comic expressions. He hasn't disappointed his fans and he brings in a surprise dance performance in the item song.

Apart from Jackie nothing works in the movie. Even Jackie Chan's actions are restricted at times. The movie travels from China to India, a bit of Dubai for just one car chase scene. Too much of information are poured in the first 10 minutes of the movie which actually confuses the audience.

Kung fu yoga poster Few minutes into the movie just feels this is not going to be what it should be. The beginning doesn't feel like a beginning, It just starts abruptly which indeed has driven out the excitement in watching the movie.

Sonu Sood who carries the Indian baddie role should have been a bit better. He doesn't feel like a baddie at times. Disha Patani as Jackie's lead is OK. Wearing some high valued ornaments, dresses with fur are the major contribution she delivers. The age old rope tricks, some floating tricks by sadhus might impress few (Does the movie really belongs to 2017?).

The item song which casts the entire cast was one of the few good moments in the movie. It was great and watching Chan dance was extremely pleasing. There are few good moments to wake the sleeping audience.

On the whole the movie is one time watch for family audience.

Kung Fu Yoga fmovies. This is a delightful (perhaps unintentional) parody of Hollywood action films (not just Indiana Doom and the Temple of Jones). We can see how absurd it is to have "heroes" from a different culture present themselves in a foreign nation. The Indian bad guys are exceptionally bad performers with their boss Randall character being creepy as well as nefarious. No wonder this was a box office failure in India and a blockbuster success in China.

The CGI was quite a good except at the beginning with the mammoth elephants - I took that as acceptable given Professor Jack was telling a story (background to the plot)

I watched the dance scene thrice. It reminded me of the promotional video for "Romancing the Stone".

Cheeky Fun.

Hi Jackie Chan.. Everyone loves you in India.. but please stop acting in lame movies like this. I recommend you to act in next part of rush hour or..even reboot Armor of God franchise.. Please.. we do not expect you to do such low budget bad movies.. this is very disappointing.. this is a really bad movie and a poor choice.. you are a legend.. why would you accept such lame movies? I don't understand this.. please do something new.. Entire world loved Armor of God franchise.. you should make more squeals of that one rather then such dumb movies.. It is really sad to see your reputation going down by poor choices made by you.. please on the love of Jesus.. be vise when you select movies.. we are really waiting for some amazing movies from you as everyone loves you a lot.. please make something cool... thank you..

Reviews here are less than helpful, Jackie is still the man. People complain about the CGI, this movie only cost 35 million to make, not 100, people complian about the script, have you ever seen a Jackie Chan movie? One person even said reboot Armour of God, lol, why? The series is still going, check out Chinese Zodiac, another great Jackie movie, this is a fun movie, check it out
