Featured review
Watch the last 20mins and the end credits, skip the rest.
Jia Ling's transformation, set as a montage sequence to "Gonna Fly Now" (yes, really) and the reveal of her fighting physique happen in the last 20 minutes of the film. While the reveal is very impressive, the transformation literally takes less than 2 minutes of film time to show. The first 1.5hrs of the film is dedicated to plot involving Jia's character's falling out with her sister and a romantic comedy with her boxing trainer. I'm not sure why so many people are emotionally moved by this film, but Rocky this is not. Far from it. The singular most fascinating part of the film is actually the end credits, where we see a documentary of sorts of Jia's intense training sessions and a rundown of her weight loss over a year's time. This begs the question: WHY WASN'T THIS IN THE MAIN FILM? THIS is what we came to see! Not some nonsense romcom that doesn't go anywhere. I rate this a 5/10. Jia's transformation is very impressive, but it needed to be the center of the film, not an afterthought told in the film's end credits. Save your money and wait for it to come to netflix or prime.
