Did you like the first one? I didn't. I only tolerated it because Fan Bingbing was in it, but because she has been exorcised from this film, I had no real interest in this other than the hype.
And the hype is way too much.
Guo Jingming has a creative imagination, and he writes some interesting films including the upcoming End of Endless Love and Yin Yang Master. Both of those look infinitely more interesting than this film.
By removing Fan Bingbing and her character, the first 30 minutes or so are a bit of mess and it tries to both plug in the gaps and pretend she never existed in the first place.
At times this film felt like a video game. It was almost like Bloodborne had come to life. The movie looks beautiful at times, but other times there are quite average visuals including some poor animations, especially when the characters jump.
This is a tough one to recommend for anyone but fans, so I am not going to recommend this.
