Wolf Warriors 2

This is utter crap. It has non-stop action, there's loads of English dialogue (it's set in "Africa" -- they're never more specific!), and it has a reasonably well-known star in Frank Grillo. These are all points that usually would lead to a watchable film for a foreigner in China, but Wolf Warriors 2 is a ceaseless display of propagandist bullshit and ridiculous action (Leng stops a rocket with the springs from a burnt out mattress!!), with a very basic story that would not even make it in the 80s, and some of the most annoyingly choppy film editing I've ever seen - the Chinese have a LONG way to go before they can compete with films from other countries. Frank Grillo basically does nothing for most of the film - he watches screens and looks through binoculars from afar, detached from the main action, until the end where he fights Wu Jing (the main hero) and loses.
