CUSTOMER REVIEW:
A tai chi movie?
This is probably the only movie that comes any close in its depiction of the actual practice of Tai Ji Quan. There is a lot of silence, character developement is very subtle. I gave it 4 stars, because if it d be anymore subtle, the movie would just have to stop all together. So Im giving it 4 stars and a thank you for keeping on moving to a happy resolution. He finds a chick;)
