How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A scrappy action romp where a displaced martial artist and a street-smart kid stumble into criminal danger and must outmaneuver criminals through grit and improvisation. It's lightweight fun with genuine stakes and well-executed fight choreography.
