Just saw the movie, Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings And I have to rate it quite favourable. Tons of martial arts excitement and dragons. Did I mention dragons? There are DRAGONS in this movie.
However, Shang-Chi is not a superhero in the Marvel sense. He is more of a historic hero. He does not fight crime (Except an altercation on a bus in San Francisco. That was cool!), or oppression the way other Marvel characters do. He protects his mothers city, from an evil force that has been locked up and secured for thousands of years.
There is a struggle between Shang-Chi and his father that ends up passing on the 10 rings to his son.
A great movie to see and a real groundbreaking accomplishment for Asian superheroes.
