Hi everyone, BEST MOVIE REVIEW here.
2
00:00:02,447 --> 00:00:06,147
Today’s movie is “SHANG-CHI AND
THE LEGEND OF THE TEN RINGS”.
3
00:00:06,296 --> 00:00:07,266
Spoilers ahead.
4
00:00:07,481 --> 00:00:11,461
The film opens with the legend of the
ten rings, a mythical set of weapons
5
00:00:11,461 --> 00:00:13,451
that can give the wearer god-like powers.
6
00:00:13,663 --> 00:00:17,773
For centuries, the one holding the
rings was a man named Wenwu, who
7
00:00:17,773 --> 00:00:19,883
used its powers for corrupt purposes.
8
00:00:20,107 --> 00:00:23,717
He is seen wiping out a whole army by
himself with the power of the rings.
9
00:00:23,927 --> 00:00:27,647
Wenwu later established his own
organization, the Ten Rings,
10
00:00:27,907 --> 00:00:31,487
which influenced the course of
history, with them taking over
11
00:00:31,487 --> 00:00:33,317
various kingdoms and governments.
12
00:00:33,539 --> 00:00:38,809
In 1996, Wenwu, not yet fully
satisfied with his power, seeks
13
00:00:38,809 --> 00:00:42,569
out the village of Ta Lo to find a
mythical dragon and acquire its powers.
14
00:00:42,792 --> 00:00:46,172
When he makes it to the village’s
entrance, he encounters a woman named
15
00:00:46,172 --> 00:00:48,862
Ying Li, who guards the entrance to Ta Lo.
16
00:00:49,024 --> 00:00:53,734
She and Wenwu engage in a fight, where she
displays her own impressive combat skills.
17
00:00:53,942 --> 00:00:56,522
Still, the two immediately
begin to fall in love.
18
00:00:56,850 --> 00:01:00,910
The two have children, including
a son, Shang-Chi, and Li gives
19
00:01:00,910 --> 00:01:02,240
her son an emerald pendant.
20
00:01:02,438 --> 00:01:06,598
In the present day, Shang-Chi lives
in San Francisco and goes by “Shaun”.
21
00:01:06,815 --> 00:01:10,255
He receives a mysterious postcard
with an image of a dragon on it.
22
00:01:10,439 --> 00:01:13,609
He works as a valet with
his best friend, Katy Chen.
23
00:01:13,790 --> 00:01:17,170
The two are content with their
lives, but their friends John and Soo
24
00:01:17,170 --> 00:01:20,050
make them feel like they’re wasting
their lives and their potential.
25
00:01:20,252 --> 00:01:24,482
Shang-Chi and Katy continue to hang out on
their own and get drunk at a karaoke bar.
26
00:01:24,739 --> 00:01:28,629
The next day, Shang-Chi and Katy board
a bus when they are approached by a man
27
00:01:28,629 --> 00:01:32,059
demanding that Shang-Chi give him the
pendant he still wears around his neck.
28
00:01:32,319 --> 00:01:37,249
Other goons, led by a hulking one-handed
man named Razor Fist, start to attack,
29
00:01:37,819 --> 00:01:42,389
and Shang-Chi’s earlier combat training
kicks in, so he proceeds to fight
30
00:01:42,389 --> 00:01:44,039
the men and wipe the floor with them.
31
00:01:44,280 --> 00:01:48,830
Unfortunately, Razor Fist uses his razor
to slice the brakes off the bus and kill
32
00:01:48,830 --> 00:01:53,570
the driver, prompting Katy to take the
helm while Shang-Chi continues to fight.
33
00:01:53,765 --> 00:01:57,175
They manage to lose the villains,
but they have stolen the pendant.
34
00:01:57,370 --> 00:02:00,820
Katy begins to ask Shang-Chi
questions about who he really is.
35
00:02:01,004 --> 00:02:05,024
He reveals to her that he has a
sister, Xialing, whom he was separated
36
00:02:05,024 --> 00:02:06,384
from after leaving his father.
37
00:02:06,537 --> 00:02:10,307
Shang-Chi shows Katy the postcard he
was sent and believes it’s from Xiang.
38
00:02:10,555 --> 00:02:14,605
They board a plane to Macau to find her,
where Shang-Chi explains the training
39
00:02:14,605 --> 00:02:16,255
he went through under the Ten Rings.
40
00:02:16,406 --> 00:02:19,826
Still, as he realized that his
father wanted him to become a killer,
41
00:02:20,146 --> 00:02:23,546
he chose to abandon his father’s
teachings and escaped to America.
42
00:02:23,738 --> 00:02:26,898
In Macau, Shang-Chi and Katy
come across an underground
43
00:02:26,898 --> 00:02:28,748
fight club operated by Jon Jon.
44
00:02:29,006 --> 00:02:32,356
They witness Wong battling
Emil Blonsky - The Abomination.
45
00:02:32,549 --> 00:02:36,539
Wong beats his opponent by creating a
portal that causes Abomination to punch
46
00:02:36,539 --> 00:02:39,179
himself in the face and knock himself out.
47
00:02:39,326 --> 00:02:42,446
Shang-Chi then signs up to
go next and must fight Xiang.
48
00:02:42,653 --> 00:02:46,143
She fights her brother until he tells
her that their father is coming for them
49
00:02:46,413 --> 00:02:48,143
and the other pendant in her possession.
50
00:02:48,404 --> 00:02:52,214
Xiang is resentful to Shang-Chi for
abandoning her after their mother’s death.
51
00:02:52,471 --> 00:02:55,691
When Shang-Chi produces the
postcard, Xialing says it
52
00:02:55,691 --> 00:02:57,091
wasn’t her that sent him that.
53
00:02:57,265 --> 00:03:02,065
Soon, Ten Rings assassins, led by Death
Dealer, begin to attack the place as
54
00:03:02,065 --> 00:03:03,975
Xialing ditches Shang-Chi and Katy.
55
00:03:04,092 --> 00:03:07,912
Shang-Chi fights the assassins just
outside the building and defeats most of
56
00:03:07,912 --> 00:03:13,322
them, but Wenwu soon arrives and takes
Shang-Chi, Katy, and Xialing with him.
57
00:03:13,574 --> 00:03:17,234
Everyone arrives at the Ten Rings
compound, where Wenwu provides
58
00:03:17,234 --> 00:03:18,844
his children and Katy with dinner.
59
00:03:19,038 --> 00:03:22,398
He wants Shang-Chi to take his place
as his successor to lead the Ten
60
00:03:22,398 --> 00:03:26,158
Rings, but Shang-Chi wants nothing
to do with his father’s legacy.
61
00:03:26,354 --> 00:03:30,244
Wenwu also mentions the fake Mandarin
character from America that falsely
62
00:03:30,244 --> 00:03:32,114
represented him and his organization.
63
00:03:32,379 --> 00:03:35,889
He talks about Li and how everything
in his life changed for him after they
64
00:03:35,889 --> 00:03:38,289
met and how lost he felt when she died.
65
00:03:38,521 --> 00:03:42,141
Desperate to bring her back, he learns
of a gate in the mountains of Ta Lo
66
00:03:42,141 --> 00:03:46,351
where he believes Li is trapped and
must be set free, as he claims he can
67
00:03:46,351 --> 00:03:47,951
hear her voice calling out to him.
68
00:03:48,190 --> 00:03:51,990
Wenwu takes Shang-Chi and Xialing’s
pendants and places them in the eyes of
69
00:03:51,990 --> 00:03:56,590
a dragon statue, activating some kind
of water map for him to enter Ta Lo.
70
00:03:56,852 --> 00:04:01,202
After Wenwu expresses his plan to
invade Ta Lo and burn it to the ground,
71
00:04:01,332 --> 00:04:05,332
Shang-Chi vocally objects, and his
father lays him on the ground before
72
00:04:05,332 --> 00:04:08,182
imprisoning him, Katy, and Xiang.
73
00:04:08,406 --> 00:04:13,536
In their captivity, the trio meets Trevor
Slattery, the former fake Mandarin who has
74
00:04:13,536 --> 00:04:15,686
since been captured for his impersonation.
75
00:04:15,856 --> 00:04:19,836
Still, his only company is a furry
faceless creature he calls Morris.
76
00:04:20,030 --> 00:04:22,960
With their help, the trio finds
an escape route leading to the
77
00:04:22,960 --> 00:04:26,720
garage, and they steal Razor Fist’s
car to make their way to Ta Lo.
78
00:04:26,968 --> 00:04:30,218
On their path, the forest attempts
to “eat” the group as they drive
79
00:04:30,218 --> 00:04:33,038
through it, but they manage
to safely make it to Ta Lo.
80
00:04:33,264 --> 00:04:36,574
Among the inhabitants are other
mythical beasts like shishi lions.
81
00:04:36,782 --> 00:04:40,572
It is also where Morris originates
from, as he is known as a handun.
82
00:04:40,810 --> 00:04:44,270
When confronted by the villagers,
the group is met by their leader,
83
00:04:44,950 --> 00:04:48,460
Ying Nan, Li’s sister and therefore
the aunt of Shang-Chi and Xiang.
84
00:04:48,673 --> 00:04:51,233
Nan explains to them that they
guard the Dark Gate where the
85
00:04:51,233 --> 00:04:52,743
Dweller-in-Darkness lives.
86
00:04:52,979 --> 00:04:56,759
It is a soul-sucking monster whose
army previously slaughtered thousands.
87
00:04:56,982 --> 00:05:01,012
Before they could make their way into
the outside world, the warriors of Ta Lo
88
00:05:01,012 --> 00:05:05,832
fought back alongside the dragon guardian,
the Great Protector, and they helped
89
00:05:05,832 --> 00:05:07,682
imprison the Dweller behind the gates.
90
00:05:07,930 --> 00:05:10,830
The Dweller is manipulating
Wenwu into believing that Li’s
91
00:05:10,830 --> 00:05:12,250
voice is calling out to him.
92
00:05:12,487 --> 00:05:15,887
Nan takes Shang-Chi and Xialing to
view suits their mother crafted for
93
00:05:15,887 --> 00:05:17,607
them while Katy is trained in archery.
94
00:05:17,851 --> 00:05:21,181
Nan takes Shang-Chi to a location
to help hone his fighting skills
95
00:05:21,181 --> 00:05:24,491
and train the way his mother learned
how to fight, as she was the only
96
00:05:24,491 --> 00:05:25,991
one who could ever defeat Wenwu.
97
00:05:26,277 --> 00:05:31,557
As Wenwu continues going over his
research of Ta Lo, a flashback is shown
98
00:05:31,557 --> 00:05:36,677
where old adversaries of the Ten Rings,
the Iron Gang, attacked the compound.
99
00:05:36,935 --> 00:05:39,495
While Li fought them off,
she was killed by them.
100
00:05:39,700 --> 00:05:43,240
In his fury, Wenwu took the young
Shang-Chi with him and made him witnessed
101
00:05:43,240 --> 00:05:47,090
as he used the ten rings to slaughter
the Iron Gang, and Shang-Chi first
102
00:05:47,090 --> 00:05:48,910
witnessed the brutality of his father.
103
00:05:49,055 --> 00:05:52,565
Shang-Chi later confides to Katy that
he worries he is no different from
104
00:05:52,565 --> 00:05:56,015
his father and resolves to kill Wenwu
to stop him from hurting others.
105
00:05:56,195 --> 00:06:00,815
Soon, Wenwu leads the Ten Rings as they
make their way into Ta Lo, and the heroes
106
00:06:00,815 --> 00:06:02,495
and villagers all gather for battle.
107
00:06:02,734 --> 00:06:06,594
As the fight rages on, Shang-Chi
confronts Wenwu with a bo staff.
108
00:06:06,831 --> 00:06:09,831
The two fight, with Wenwu
punching his son into the ocean.
109
00:06:10,039 --> 00:06:14,069
He proceeds to go and open the Dark
Gate, unleashing several soul-sucking
110
00:06:14,069 --> 00:06:18,349
demons, one of which kills Death
Dealer and prompts Razor Fist into
111
00:06:18,349 --> 00:06:20,309
agreeing to work with Xialing and Nan.
112
00:06:20,555 --> 00:06:23,575
The demons suck out more souls
as fuel to release the Dweller.
113
00:06:23,784 --> 00:06:28,294
While underwater, Shang-Chi encounters
the Great Protector, who helps him rise
114
00:06:28,294 --> 00:06:30,214
out and return to finish fighting Wenwu.
115
00:06:30,424 --> 00:06:34,204
Shang-Chi manages to control the
rings, but he chooses not to kill
116
00:06:34,204 --> 00:06:35,964
Wenwu to prove he is nothing like him.
117
00:06:36,219 --> 00:06:39,329
Unfortunately, the Dweller
is released from its prison.
118
00:06:39,485 --> 00:06:42,705
Wenwu relinquishes the power of
the rings to his son just before
119
00:06:42,705 --> 00:06:44,195
the Dweller absorbs his soul.
120
00:06:44,450 --> 00:06:49,140
The monster proceeds to rampage across
the village, taking Shang-Chi and Xiang.
121
00:06:49,363 --> 00:06:53,013
When she tells Shang-Chi to let her
go so that they won’t both die, he
122
00:06:53,013 --> 00:06:55,173
refuses and continues to hold onto her.
123
00:06:55,415 --> 00:06:57,635
Katy fires an arrow at
the Dweller’s throat.
124
00:06:57,779 --> 00:07:01,269
Shang-Chi uses the rings to fire
blasts at the Dweller while the
125
00:07:01,269 --> 00:07:03,069
Great Protector gets a few hits in.
126
00:07:03,213 --> 00:07:06,703
Shang-Chi hurls the rings into the
Dweller’s chest and lands one final
127
00:07:06,703 --> 00:07:08,733
powerful move to rip the beast to shreds.
128
00:07:08,995 --> 00:07:13,235
The survivors honor their fallen warriors,
including Shang-Chi honoring Wenwu.
129
00:07:13,570 --> 00:07:16,330
They light lanterns and send
them off across the waters.
130
00:07:16,507 --> 00:07:20,517
Shang-Chi and Katy return home and recap
their whole adventure to John and Soo,
131
00:07:20,947 --> 00:07:22,687
who both think the two are mocking them.
132
00:07:22,928 --> 00:07:26,618
Then Wong opens a portal into the bar
in front of everyone to invite Shang-Chi
133
00:07:26,618 --> 00:07:28,498
and Katy along for another mission.
134
00:07:28,825 --> 00:07:31,155
The two waste no time and
step through the portal.
135
00:07:31,374 --> 00:07:34,914
Mid-Credits Scene: Shang-Chi and
Katy meet Bruce Banner and Carol
136
00:07:34,914 --> 00:07:37,614
Danvers - Captain Marvel with Wong.
137
00:07:37,930 --> 00:07:42,120
They discuss that when Shang-Chi used
the ten rings, it activated a beacon.
138
00:07:42,353 --> 00:07:46,543
Before they can continue to figure out
what it means, Shang-Chi and Katy take
139
00:07:46,543 --> 00:07:50,233
Wong to the karaoke bar where they
get drunk and sing “Hotel California”.
140
00:07:50,449 --> 00:07:53,819
Post-Credits Scene: Xialing now
appears to be the new leader of the
141
00:07:53,819 --> 00:07:57,979
Ten Rings, with Razor Fist now working
under her as the surviving members
142
00:07:57,979 --> 00:07:59,679
are seen continuing their training.
143
00:07:59,933 --> 00:08:03,043
At the same time, she makes
new plans for their future.
144
00:08:03,171 --> 00:08:04,331
Thanks for watching.
