Rating 3.5/5
The Warrior's Way was released in 2010.It is directed by first time director Sngmoo Lee.It stars Dong Gun Jang(The Promise,Dangerous Liaisons),Kate Bosworth(Superman Returns,Wonderland),Geoffrey Rush(Pirates of the Caribbean,Shakespeare in Love),Danny Huston(X Men Origins:Wolverine,Children of Men),Tony Cox(Bad Santa,Oz the Great and Powerful),and Shaw Brothers Legend Ti Lung(Avenging Eagle,A Better Tomorrow).
This is Jang Dong Gun's hollywood debut.and like many other Asian actors.His English is poor,so you have a hard time understanding him.What was great about the Warriors way was the casting and the cinematography.There was a lot of rugged and gritty characters that used more dialogue than lines.The producers and the filmakers created a western world so real that they got too lost in the enviroment they created and were having too much fun.Leaving the audience somewhat bored and waiting for the action.Too much of the relation between Yang and Lynne were shown,along with the characters in the village.The villains were left out and only showed up when needed.there wasnt too much focus on them. Ti Lung finally makes a hollywood debut.He speaks English as well.And if you have never seen his work at the shaw brothers movies that made him a legend before Donnie Yen,Jet Li,and Jackie Chan.You need to check them out Asap.
