Leave your thoughts about Tai Chi Hero.
| MTVCharles WebbIt's got more of a heart this time and I was able to warm to the characters in a way that I couldn't with the first film. |
| The GridJason AndersonLike its predecessor, Tai Chi Hero is continually hampered by its thin characters and badly convoluted narrative but at least this time there are more opportunities to savour the many oddball pleasures. |
| Film Journal InternationalEthan AlterThe second installment in a planned martial-arts trilogy mixes broad comedy and cartoonish action that will appeal to the genre's fans, though crossover potential seems limited. |
| Los Angeles TimesRobert AbeleThere's still a nagging, cartoonish emptiness — and a trilogy-ending installment still to come. |
| Village VoiceSimon AbramsThis sequel is sluggish and rote where its predecessor was aggressively perky and desperate to please...Tai Chi Hero is more Tai Chi Business as Usual. |
| Globe and MailAdam NaymanAs the middle part of a proposed trilogy, Tai Chi Hero may ultimately look better in light of its own sequel (which, based on the evidence here, will double-down on the steampunk stuff), but now, its pitched battle between silliness and solemnity feels like a split decision. |
| New York TimesAndy WebsterTai Chi Hero merely fills the eye, offering little that stays with you. |
| Toronto StarBruce DeMaraPurist fans of martial arts cinema probably won't embrace this film any more than its predecessor. |
