Why it’s a Monday Morning Maybe

With almost no lasting buzz and soft box office, this one could be a tough watch. Keep your phone handy.

Based on critics, audiences, awards, box office and buzz. Details below.

Is it for you?

Who'll love it: Best for anyone who appreciates a well-choreographed fight and anyone after some adrenaline. The fight choreography is a big part of the appeal. Same wavelength as Beast or Fist of Legend.
The mood: Exciting.
The pace: Takes its time with its characters, at 1 hr 31 min.
What might put you off: It's in Chinese, so expect subtitles (or a dub).
Made in 1976: an older pace and style.
Skip it if you prefer quiet, talky stories.

Bruce Li plays a young kung fu expert (and waiter) who is trying to live peacefully in San Francisco with his marital arts-challenged friend. But they run afoul of some American thugs, and the fight is on...right!
