Not too far away from CTHD tonally and fight choreography-wise. So I think he's a decent choice.
Having said that, according to the link I read
Yeah, that doesn't fill me with optimism. But we'll see. Be interesting to see who gets cast.Quote:
he project has a script from John Fusco ("The Forbidden Kingdom," "Hidalgo")
I liked Bride of Chucky and The Bride with White Hair, so if they make this Crouching Bride or something, I will watch it.

Review: Jet Li's 'The Sorcerer & The White Snake' Is Wuxia-Lite, With Bad Action & CG | The Playlist
I DVR'd a preview of this on HDNet Movies, but maybe I'll just delete it...Quote:
Perhaps hardcore Jet Li fans will be able to get some joy out of it, but we'd suspect that even they will struggle with this one. [D]
Berlin Review: Wong Kar Wai's 'The Grandmaster' Is Occasionally Mesmerizing, Mostly Muddled | The Playlist
Quote:
All of Zhang Ziyi’s considerable powers can’t compensate for our lack of emotional investment in Ip Man himself, and all of Wong's undeniable visual flair can't conceal the haphazard nature of the story. Perhaps most damningly, though, if we consider how the mellifluous chords of “In the Mood for Love” (for example), resonated with us for maybe weeks afterward, in the few short hours that we’ve lived with “The Grandmaster,” we’ve already begun to forget it.
