THE WARRIOR'S WAY

The film should’ve been a monster hit.  The story was there.  Sngmoo Lee screwed his script over with his own direction.  The producers should not have let Lee take the reins.  He doesn’t have the chops to pull this off.  Just think if this story was directed by someone like Zack Snyder or Jaume Collet-Serra.  You need someone that knows how to enhance the special effects with the story, someone that knows how to build a scene, someone that can  strengthen the characters visually.

Lee lets the effects overwhelm the story.  On screen, his characters don’t stand out when they should be iconic.  The drama isn’t squeezed, the tension isn’t tightened.  This movie should have been epic.  It had all the right ingredients.  The chef botched the film in the kitchen.
