Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings (2021)

The best part of this movie is hands down the choreography. A lot of the fighting, particularly in the first half, immediately reminded me of Jackie Chan. This makes sense because one of the lead guys on Jackie’s stunt team worked on this movie. This movie had a fair bit of humor, heart, family, and addressed the desire to be something. This is definitely a life lessons kind of movie and shows how hard people will hope loved ones are still out there. I genuinely love this movie. This is a step in the right direction for the MCU in a lot of ways.
