This film made me quite uncomfortable. I came in thinking that it would be an inspirational bodybuilding story. However, I quickly learned that I was mistaken. Killian’s descent into hysteria quickly progresses throughout the film, and demonstrates his lack of mental control.
Jonathan Mayor’s acting was so good in this film. From the nervous twitching to the stutters, he really nailed the character and made the viewers try to understand what he was going through.
One of the best animated movies of all time.
I came into this movie not knowing the lore of Nhe Zha at all and left with a profound interest in the mythology.
Some of the scenes were hella funny and were just absolutely bizarre. Coupled with the action-packed fight scene and some sentimental scenes, it’s not an exaggeration to say that this film really is a roller coaster of emotions from beginning to end.
Probably gonna watch it once more before they stop showing it in theaters.
10/10 hard watch
Vietnamese movies never fail to make me cringe 👍
