The martial arts sequences live up to the hype
With its release date fast approaching, the latest Marvel film has secured two thumbs up from fans who have already been able to tune into the action.
If the early reactions to 'Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings' are to be believed, then we have a new Marvel favourite on our hands.
The red carpet premiere for the movie took place last night at the El Capitan Theatre in Los Angeles, and saw the stars of the movie, as well as some other Marvel heads, arrive to promote the blockbuster. Simu Liu, Awkwafina, Meng’er Zhang, Fala Chen, Benedict Wong and many more joined Kevin Feige for the star-studded event. Director Destin Daniel Cretton was also present, as well as 'Eternals' director Chloé Zhao who made an appearance during the festivities.
Following the event, early reactions to 'Shang-Chi' began hitting social media by various journalists and film critics. From what we can see, the movie has been receiving huge praise for its dramatic action sequences, the incredible chemistry between the cast, as well as having an impressive soundtrack. It seems that Marvel has yet another smash hit for the fanboys and girls.
Here are some of the early reactions to Marvel's second movie as part of their Phase Four, 'Shang-Chi'.
Unlike 'Black Widow' before it, which led to legal action from its main star, 'Shang-Chi' will initially only be available in theatres. It will arrive on Disney+ 45 days after its theatrical run.
'Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings' arrives in cinemas on September 3.
