Okay so I know I said to stop StarWarsPosting but this movie is great.
Against the command of his master, the lone Tai Chi student of his school begins fighting for money in order to save the school from demolition.

He starts to like it "turns to the dark side," and duels his master. The fun surprise is that the master is able to send his student flying without even making contact. It's a force push!

It stars Tiger Chen, who helped train Keanu Reeves for The Matrix films. Keanu Reeves directed it and plays the bad guy.

dudes love doing cool martial arts moves to each other so much that they go beyond the boundaries of material reality and that's what all keanu reeves movies should be about
Did you ever see Hero, with Jet Li, where he compares martial arts to calligraphy? Bill & Ted's Excellent adventure is just Keanu doing martial arts to a guitar so hard they transcend the fabric of time and space.
Hero is the one with the rashomon kinda narrative structure right? I think I have seen that
Been nursing this hot take since it came out and I'm happy to finally be releasing it into the wild.
Thank you for bringing this movie to my attention. I shall now watch it immediately.
