A solid fantasy action movie to introduce a new character. Shaun is just a regular guy living in San Francisco and Katy is his slacker friend. The two of them make a great pair of fun loving 30 somethings. But then Shaun gets exposed as a martial arts expert as a group of bad guys attack him to get a pendant that was given by his mom. Slowly revealed throughout the rest of the film is the extent of Shaun's martial arts badass-ness and his family background of mysticism and save-the-world responsibility. And dad is a bad guy who just wants to control the world. I generally like the cinematic effect of good martial arts action, and this did not disappoint, with the dragons and the forrest. Looking forward to more in this story line.
4 stars (out of 5)
