To an extend, the chinese boxer is fun but it also doesn't really do anything different from other kung fu films and it also doesn't really have any sort of emotional core to if.
You have with something like a bruce lee film....his persona is still captivating to see and clash with other characters but here, the runtime is to short to give any character anything to work with so its all just really flat.
