Review of The Quest

The Quest (1996)
4/10
The Chinese fighter was eye candy
26 June 2004
The plot: empty, if not silly. The arch of the story was really not going anywhere.

Character depth: nonexistent.

The fight scenes: The one - and only - thing I really liked was the Chinese fighter. Wonderful movements. Made all the others look really cumbersome. Without the camera work, all of it, except mentioned Chinese fighter, would have been just embarrassing. But there is worse, I guess.

There was some effort put into the costumes and the attempt to keep up the semblance of a story. But it was just too shallow and empty beneath to redeem this movie.

Good, though, if you have other things to do and just want something to run in the background. You can just look at the movie from time to time and are certain not to miss anything of importance.
