aesthetically it does nothing for me but i gotta say it's surprisingly legit and doesn't come across try-hard at all. it's even kinda dopey when it needs to be and ending it with that legendary jcvd dance is a fun self-aware nod. bautista is a bit too reasonable as tong po, and the lead guy lacks likability so it's kinda hard to really care about the outcome. but overall, despite everything looking inexcusably brown & washed out (only 2016 is capable of making thailand look like mud), this could have been much worse and i never found myself looking at the time. i mean i'm a big van damme guy,... read
