Review of Shadow

Shadow (2018)
6/10
Typical Wuxia, with some mediocre to bad acting & gimmicky visuals
13 February 2020
Typical of the Wuxia style, Shadow gets credit for the remarkable clothing and battle gear as well as the stylish aspects of color and contrast used. However, acting is often mediocre to bad, and the switching from color to muted to b&w just seems gimmicky after a while rather than bold cinematic choices. The fight scenes were competent, the story line, though, was a tired rehash.
